I am in the minority about "classic" comedies. Airplane is so overrated it's ridiculous. The comedy in Airplane is barely a step above the drivel that comes out today. Some of it is genuinely funny and entertaining but a huge portion of the movie is just stupidity, and not funny stupidity like 40 year old virgin.
I watched Spaceballs all the way through and didn't even fucking grin once and I'm as big of a sci-fi nerd as they come. A funny movie is Men in Black or 40 year old virgin. Just as many great comedies are coming out today as "back then."
