Hot Shots or Hot Shots Part Deux?


Which Hot Shots movie is better, the original or the sequel? To me it's the sequel Part Deux. It had a better plot, cool new cast members including Rowan Atkinson and Richard Creena, plus it just had the better jokes. Lloyd Bridgers as the President is hilarious. "We'll settle this the old navy way. First guy to die looses!" Which Hot Shots do you guys think is better?

They're both hilarious, but I like Part Deux a little better. It seems to have more Lloyd Bridges and more gags.

Just watching Part Deux again just now and I would say it's far superior to the first. Not that the first was bad or anything but Part Deux is hilarious from start to finish.

I wish I had done a lot of things. I wish I had... I wish I had stayed. I do.

HS1 has more jokes per minute but the hit rate is lower than in HS2 where almost every joke is a riot.
Also I preferred how in HS2 they actually cast actors from the movies they spoofed. Seriously, can you imagine a better choice to mock Col. Trautman than Richard Crenna himself?

Part Deux. It had more to draw from than the first.
