Miles Monroe (Woody Allen) wakes up 200 years in the future in a dystopian society. The doctors who revive him are part of a resistance movement and are abducted, leaving him to carry on with the movement. He ends up a fugitive, posing as a robot butler and comes upon Luna Schlosser (Diane Keaton). He reveals himself to her, kidnaps her, and they both get caught and are captured by police. She escapes abduction and becomes part of the underground movement, freeing Miles. The movie climaxes as the leader of the dystopian society turns out to be secretly dead, the government plans to clone him using only his nose, and Miles and Luna, posing as doctors, steal his nose. Here it's a zit.
Irving Nebbish was Crazy's version of Alfred E. Neuman before Obnoxio the Clown became the mascot in the early 80s. You can tell how old someone is by who they say the mascot for Crazy is. Strike that, you can tell how old someone is by whether or not they've even heard of Crazy.
A-Z GUIDE TO MOVIES AND TV SHOWS PARODIED BY MAD, CRACKED, CRAZY, ETC. UP TO 1996. THEY HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS. SPOILERS AND OTHER NON-SEQUITURS, TOO. SOMETIMES THESE THINGS HAVE WORDS OR SITUATIONS WE DON'T USE ANYMORE. YOU KNOW, 'CAUSE THEY'RE OLD.
