Quick...Which movie would be funnier for teens? Peewee's Big Adventure or Airplane?

My daughter has some friends over for a birthday celebration...ages 13 to 17 boy and girl mix, some have language/processing difficulties.

We rented both movies. Which do you think they would enjoy more if either? (Is Airplane too dated with too many plays on words? Is Peewee too goofy?)

Thanks!

Not dated, just too adult with the (I can't spell it) inuendoes and multiple meanings. Hospitial, what is it? It's a big building.... and another 'Surely you must be kidding, Don't call me Shirley....'

I love airplane, but for the teens, Pee Wee.

LOL, I forgot about those jokes! Definitely Pee Wee.

Airplane

You ever been up in a cockpit before?"
"No sir, I've never been up in a plane before!"
"You ever seen a grown man naked?"

"Joey, d'you ever hang around the gymnasium?"
"Joey? You like movies about gladiators?"
"Joey? Have you ever been in a... in a Turkish prison?"

My 17 y.o. thinks Airplane is hilarious.

I still remember seeing Airplane for the first time in high school and hysterically laughing. (Remember the heart on the guy's desk jumping around?) I felt the same way watching Top Secret with Val Kilmer.

Unfortunately, PeeWee was scratched and stopped playing in the middle. They watched a little of Airplane but no one was paying attention, so they ended up with Twilight. I'm not sure they paid a lot of attention to that either, but they still had fun.

I was just recently trying to explain it mine-I know he would love it...that's it-I'm putting in my queue and bumping it to the top!

Twilight, is that the vampire movie? I think I just saw that.

When my kids were in their late teens, they just loved Napoleon Dynamite.
