When I was a kid, the first movie we bought on betamax was naked gun and it was the first time I saw those condoms. Since then, his comedy made a lasting impression. I thought he was already in is 80’s because of the gray hair back then. RIP Drebbin.
He is and always will be the shit. His movies will always be some of my favorite movies of all time. I miss him already :sad:
RIP Leslie Nielsen.
I hope Comedy Central or HBO/Cinemax has a marathon of all the Airplane and Naked Gun movies soon.

R.I.P Leslie Nielsen, Naked Gun was the best.
too early? We were cracking MJ and What chu talking bout Willis jokes before either of them were in the ground.
That dude had silver hair since the 50’s. I think he came out of the womb looking the same.
and we’re forgetting about [media=youtube]i1Y_09HHulI[/media]
Damn man. Damn. RIP.
one of my comedy heroes

r.i.p.

- You see, guys? this is how you’re supposed to die. None of that 50 year old cop out crap. (Bernie Mac, I’m looking at you). One of Canada’s best. You’ll surely be missed, friend.

RIP to the master of slapstick.
Airplane
“Oh course I’m serious and don’t call me Shirley.”
We should get together and honor him. How about dinner? I know a place that serves great Viking food.
The part of that movie is that he wasn’t playing a comical role at all, he was legitimately acting. That’s what made him so hilarious in that movie.
RIP Leslie, thanks for everything
Heard bout this Sunday night. Man, this really sucks. I’ve never Seen Airplane but I’ve seen nearly all of the Naked Gun films. I need to get the DVDs.
RIP Leslie Nealon.
See Airplane. Its probably one of the top 3 comedies of ALL TIME.
He needs to tap Anna Nicole from Naked Gun 33 1/3 up in Heaven if that’s allowed lol!
Seriously though, me and my family watched Airplane so many times when I was a kid. My father at the time spoke very little English and he would laugh his ass off at the movie every time it was on. It was like the only English comedy we could all watch together.
Thanks for all the laughs and great memories Leslie Nielson. RIP.
