What If Airplane Had Starred Liam Neeson?

I asked someone for a light today. He replied, "Surely." I said, "Please don't call me Shirley." He said, "Sorry, sure." "No, no, I'm just making an Airplane joke!" "Oh, Airplane , with Liam Neeson!" Which immediately led me to think, what if Airplane had really starred Liam Neeson instead of Leslie Nielsen? We would have dialogue like: Neeson: This woman has to be gotten to a hospital Elaine Dickinson: A hospital? What is it? Neeson: Ah, it's a big feckin' building with lots of sick people. It's awful, innit, all the sick and dying in the world? But what are we to do, hey, just soldier on then, right?" Would have been a bit of a different movie, I suspect.
