Quote by David Zucker
Chevy Chase and Bill Murray - we thought those guys were funny. We love Bill Murray, but we didn't think they were right for Airplane! because it would step on the joke if there was a known comedian.

Summary
This quote suggests that while both Chevy Chase and Bill Murray were considered funny by the speaker, they did not believe either of them would be suitable for the movie Airplane! The reason behind this belief is that having a well-known comedian in the film would detract from the intended humor and undermine the joke being portrayed. Despite the speaker's admiration for Bill Murray, they believed it was important to select lesser-known actors to maintain the comedic essence of the film.
