Movie Trailer: Airport: 1970

[nitratemovie]

I really like this trailer. Makes me want to see the film. It creates a good sense of tension and drama. 

[bowler8]

Do you have the full airport 1970 movie?

[santosclarice1940]

remembering that it was modified to load!

[santosclarice1940]

The aircraft used in this film was the Boeing 707 prefix PT-TCS, which was bought by Brazilian airline Trasbrasil. On March 21, 1989 in Guarulhos, São Paulo state, Brazil, the plane crashed near the Governor Franco Montoro International Airport, killing three crew members of cargo aircraft and 22 people on the ground and injured more than 100 people.

[jacksonkidd]

Great work!! Can you make one for the other Airport movies too?

[dahlrich99]

Great trailer for a GREAT MOVIE!

[rminister1971]

Excellent Trailer, Great Book by Arthur Hailey, reading it again now.

[datamerican]

great video! :D

[snarkus63]

Since I'm not familiar with any movie named "Rendition",I judged this on its own merit---Good job.

[hibob418]

Trans Global and Blue Star, the 2 great fictional movie airlines of our time. Some guy even put together a fun website for the nonexistent Blue Star.

[veruca2792]

Does anybody know who made the soundtrack? Please! :D

[ScrapNfight]

Excuse me, JEAN SEBERG was the star of this movie. She received 3rd billing after Lancaster and Martin.

[Dazman1313]

Another person saying great job, but well deserved, the 70's film trailers could all do with this kind of makeover, most, if not all of them are truly awful.

[starwave1967]

friggen amazing, i am 44 now and the memory of this movie had been burried until now. thanks for the reminder, i recon i will check it out at the dvd store. oh, all this nostalgia stuff

[TheTalentedMrRipley1]

REST IN PEACE DANA WYNTER.. 1931-2011 she was 79 years old



[ashcarl116]

@TheTalentedMrRipley1 most sources say 1930 or 1931, but early records give it as 1927, she was 83

[indieminorbird]

Thanks Ratpack , been looking for this movie for ages , much appreciated for the vid.

[benny2009dino]

Great editing!!!!

I have always thought that the editing in the olden days up till the mid 90's was horrible.. But this editing you made real gave the movie action!!!!!!!

[meloveicecream24]

yay dean!

[harlequin75]

Does Burt Lancaster ever smile???

[Bestmanme08]

The guy with the glasses pointing at 1:08 is popular Broadway actor (and actually my eighth cousin twice removed) Peter Turgeon!

[disastertom]

excellent!!!!

[rockinconcorde2]

00:19 is that ronald reagan

[Bestmanme08]

@rockinconcorde2 No it is Burt Lancaster!

[rockinconcorde2]

@Bestmanme08 ok

[eatbbq4040]

Great film.

[MrSunlander]

but why did you use New Line Cinema?

[JPnintendofan]

"Grab him he's got a bomb!"

If he hadn't said that, the bomber would have given them the bomb. It's all his fault.

[sam9524]

im readn this one right now...

[zelig46]

Il film non è cosi eccezionale, c'è di meglio, vedi "Prigionieri del cielo" (The high and the Mighty) ma la colonna sonora di Alfred Newman è di alto livello.

[thespawnof66]

Wow!! I wasn't sure what I was watching for a moment there. What a great update! A+!!

[roberv38REC]

MERDA DE FILME.

[nenblom]

Good job!! That is a great film too!

[MrGhostwhowalks]

Dang ! That's the first time I noticed how big that mirror in the toilet was! . . Damn mirror glass must've killed 150 people on the ground. LOL !!

[harlandted]

WOW, that was an amazing job of updating the movie, I also agree, much better than the original !

[taratupa73]

Very, very impressive. Excellently done. I'm a big fan of this movie, as well.

[zanuxiite]

it is my favorite book!!! 

[bcmasta1returns]

They had Continental Airlines in 1970?

[N702ML]

@bcmasta1returns

Heck yeah....Continental Airlines began operations in 1934 as Varney Speed Lines. The name was changed to Continental Airlines in 1937. So, yes, the "Continental Airlines" name has been around for over 70 years.

[bcmasta1returns]

@N702ML Interesting, thanx!

[DictatorRoB]

You people should read book, it's pretty fine.

[58bond]

Why can't the whole movie be posted!? I hated the sequels. Only the orig. was fit to watch!!

[benzboi1]

One of my favorite films; you've made me want to watch it all over again! Excellent job!

[N8908E]

Anybody have a video of Petroni (George Kennedy) taxing the 707 out of a snow drift?

Loved the line where he said the 707 can do everything but read.

Great picture! Thanks for the post!

[xocolida]

Very good and exciting for airplane lovers..

Thank you ratpack1963!

[mahermis1]

Great trailer. I didn't realize it wasn't the real one until it was over...in fact I thought it was strangely modern, much better than the usual trailers in 1970.

[dahsuerk]

The first of the big action movies. Later Earthquake, Poseiden Adventure, and the Tower Inferno.

When I Did No Static Salute To Radio And We Had A Cast Party At The Hotel , And We Were Going To Robert's 90Th Birthday We Had A Snowstorm In Anchorage , And The 747 Crgo Planes Were Deverted Into Fairbanks , And We Took A Direct Flight From Fairbanks To Seattle , Love Scott Orvik

[JTeamjesters]

the book was awesome! Just didn't feel pleased with the ending :(

Now to watch the movie....

[JayH7745]

I hope you got an A in your editing class! That was a huge improvement over the original movie trailer! Much more dramatic! Dean looked fantastic! As always! GREAT JOB!!

[AirportGiftstoresCom]

soooooooooooo fuuny love it soo good

-lisa

[q8lovers3]

[johnnyhunger]

Very nice work!

[minaamq]

[SaabLuvr]

That was awesome man!

[2441822831]

This is an excellent updating of the original trailer...well done.

[666supersinistro666]

THAT MOVIE RLZ!!!!

[vdrinker08]

this movie is fukn sweet!!!!

[skyhighwhite]

Nice trailer 4 the orignal AIRPORT movie,the music fits it well.

[recon1701]

the continental flight number on the overhead in the first few seconds of the clip is a real flight from La to honolulu

[marcandcara]

pilot and stewardess...

[stegaflaps]

Whoops.

[DisasterFlicks]

You forgot to credit Jaqueline Bissett and Jean Seberg, both of whom had larger parts than some of the others you've credited.

[6glenn9]

karen black you mean

[DisasterFlicks]

Uh no. Thats Airport 1975. I know what i'm talking about.

[6glenn9]

well i see you do know what your talking about. your worse than my wife and kids, apparently i dont know nuttin

[DisasterFlicks]

what are u talking about???

[irish89055]

jean seberg seemed more depressed than stapleton's character... guess she had good reason as we later found out..

[neweast1]

good job one of my all time fovarites movies.even after almost 30 years still as realistic airline film ever .even without the special effects that could have used today.

[whatwhatwhat7]

one of the better fan made trailers. pretty impressive.

[Stenbrotsgatan]

Really well done...exciting stuff. Now do 1975 and '77...hehehe :)

[ronnykmarshall]

Great job. One of my favorite movies.

[parkhurst2006]

really good! congrats.

[hug2046]

Thank U

[cedarjet707]

Dramatic alternate storyline aside, there's plenty of other good things about this edit, not least the flight attendant pointing out Los Angeles and Honolulu in the safety demo. Nice work, thanks for showing me a film and story I know so well, in a completely new way.

[ratpack1963]

My pleasure, it was a fun project. Thanks for all the insight!

[cedarjet707]

Amazing piece of work. Seeing these iconic characters in the final section, with that sad and haunting music, and the looks on their faces (esp Dean Martin). What if the plane had crashed on the way back in? George Kennedy looks as though he's getting the news - Joe, you can stop work on the stuck 707. Why? We think Trans Global has crashed. They've disappeared off radar, and Detroit Centre just told us they picked up a garbled transmission they think was from Trans Global. They've gone down.

[weixtheman2]

i just read the novel. think it was better, but I LOVE this movie

[9aspengold5]

Once I started reading the book I couldn't put it down for two days until I finished it. Kept me on the edge the whole time. so well written.

[9aspengold5]

I read the book first then watched the film. Both were awesome.

[fordlandau]

I just read it too..surprised how good it was !

[sexymama1966]

same here and both were excellent! very rare for the book and the movie to be excellent

[cookiethedachshund]

where can i wacht it online

[canadianbuck77]

Classic George Kennedy at 00:23 "he'll blow out a hunk of the fuselage right here"

Great series!

[districtline]

Really fantastic; top marks! Nice job putting the "green band" before the start too ;) Back in the day, trailers have to be green-banded or red banded, depending on what film it preceded. Green-bands could only be placed on G or "M" (later "GP", then PG) rated films, red-bands could only be on R & X rated films.

...A little bit 'o movie history from an old fart ;)

[Bela195401]

This movie is phoney. The ONLY time a captain wants to fly in bad weather is if he's trying to get home. And also ground personnel does not decide whether or not the plane will fly in a blizzard. They all hide inside hopeing that ops will keep the airport shut down! It's hard enough finding someone to come outside for pushback in nice weather! I've been a flight crew member for over 7 years! Burt Lancaster's role is a joke. The airport manager has no say in whether or not a flight goes out.

[disastertom]

I always wanted to go into an airport and have D.O. Guererro paged and see what happened......

[eckrichfan]

Now days a person would probably be arrested and taken to jail

[micmac99]

Shows you how much trailers have changed since the "golden age" of Hollywood.

[apemhan]

I used to be scared of this movie I saw it while very young with my mom and dad when I was around 6 years old and made a fuss about the bomb and the guy and three rows of people in Utah thetre left because I was scred and made alot of noise and Dad said he would spank me unless I kept quiet. during the second part of movie I was very quiet and no spanking. Now I love this movie and my Da now 90 looks back on it with laughter and now just says oh you were just a scared little boy

[WayneInSF]

Fun fact: When Burt Lancaster was asked by a reporter for his reaction to "Airport" being nominated for a Best Picture Academy Award he said, "I have no idea why. It's the biggest hunk of junk ever made."

I think the Academy got it right, though. This movie is a classic.

[FlightPathPictures]

I agree- and thanks very much for the support btw :) I've read that quote from him before and was quite surprised- it is a classic!

[WayneInSF]

This is a superb piece, Ratpack! You have a career ahead of you!!

[ratpack1963]

Thank you! I hope so! :)

[WayneInSF]

At about the 25 second mark, the woman in the green dress sitting down...is Marion Ross, "Mrs. Cunningham" from HAPPY DAYS.

[FoxNewsRepublican]

Awesome! Great job at capturing all the drama. Way better than the original trailer.

[ratpack1963]

That's what I was going for! Thanks man!

[KahunaQwest]

A+ My Man & you added some "24" music as well Can't wait for your next work

Great Job!

You are added my Man! ;-)

[ratpack1963]

Thanks very much! Actually if you are interested in seeing more of my recent and current stuff, my new channel 'TannerFehr' is where that's all going. Cheers!

[ratpack1963]

You're forgetting the fact that it's a movie- and a near 40 year old one to boot. I was a rampy for a time and picked up on the same things, but I still enjoyed it though- classic disaster film that basically started the genre!

[haleyvision]

I am impressed! WOW, how marketing has changed! GREAT Edit job! This is one of my most favorite films, and your promo made it live again...Thanks!

[Stenbrotsgatan]

Wow...great stuff! Now i'd like to see Airport 1975 and Airport '77 trailers too.

[Indy788]

wow great job. this is definitely better than the original trailer.
