why strive to be something different when you're a middle aged
presenter, not that good looking, when you have a 'formula' that works on tv, books and newspapers and
pays handsomely.
Being seen as a 'twat' is subjective only to the person viewing him. He still has enough people reading and watching him for his employers to consider him bankable to pay out a good amount of money based on the way he acts to (and is perceived by) the general public.

Anyway, it doesn't bother me too much as I don't read/watch him.
And not that I like arguing with you, but the idea that Airplane! can be improved seems a little silly.

but it would be interesting to see what people made of it.
/it would also be interesting if Zucker and Co. finally managed to find a little of the old writing magic and did a third installment, maybe reuniting some of the old cast, but the writing would have to be pretty spot on to even consider it.
I'd take a half decent airplane sequel over any 'epic/superhero/meet the spartans movie'
