I thought Lloyd Bridges' Admiral/President Benson in the Hot Shots! films was hilarious when I watched them in the early 90s. Though I still appreciate his performance, watching him as POTUS in 2021 hits a little too close to home.

...And somehow the wacky absurdity of the slapstick genre doesn't seem as outlandish anymore...
