Leslie Nielsen is gone...

[TonK]

One of my favorite childhood actors...

Was just watching Naked Gun 33 1/3 the other day...

RIP man...

[dcharlie]

Sad times - RIP

Favourite line :

Gunderson: Who are you and how did you get in here?
Drebin: I'm a locksmith. And, I'm a locksmith.

[ZacharyB]

No... My sister and I were big fans of that wacky humor when we were younger.

It's like saying goodbye to our past selves. RIP Mr. Nielsen.

[rancor]

ahh.. so we're gonna do favorite quotes, huh?


Nielsen: "We've got to get these people to a hospital as soon as possible"
Flight Attendant: "A hospital? What is it?"
Nielsen: "It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now,"

[Ghegs]

Damn. I absolutely loved his movies.

[Ed Oscuro]

I'm sure he's Loving It! So, don't be sad, just remember the good fun and watch a movie in his memory.

[drauch]

Favorite movie is Night Train to Paris. Mystery set on a train that was made in the early 60's. Sooooo good! I will miss him dearly.

[Stormwatch]

Surely he will be missed.

[GaijinPunch]

Everything I see reminds me of him.

[evil_ash_xero]

He was in town for some reason once upon a time, and the local strippers said he was a "big spender".

But on a serious note..R.I.P..

[phobos]

He was truly one of the greats and he will be missed. But, lucky for him no one will ever call him Shirley again

[nem]

Just watched Airplane two days ago. Oh man, such a great comedian.

I don't think I have ever watched any of his more 'serious' films.

[Skykid]

Damn, really good actor as well.

I actually really liked him in Creepshow "You've gotta hold your breath there, Harry. You've gotta hold your breath! ..."

[njiska]

I think by far I'll remember him most for his brilliant role on Due South. One of the best moments of his career.

[Daigohji]

I'll remember him as the intrepid captain facing the unknown in Forbidden Planet. That film is on Blu-ray now, and I urge you all to buy it.

[BulletMagnet]

He shall be missed: he was truly an invaluable part of baseball history.

Rest in peace, Mr. Pallazzo.

[antron]

Nice beaver!

[GaijinPunch]

I've never seen more hat tips to any other actor who's passed away. Remarkable.

Truth be told Leslie Nielsen is one of those few "beloved actors" that actually was beloved. The guy never really did anything to piss anyone off, but did so much to make everyone laugh. Kind of heartwarming to see the support.

[dan76]

Yep, it's a shame. You kind of get the feeling he wasn't a douche. There's a great episode of Columbo with him and Patrick McGoohan called Identity Crisis.

[Matskat]

Late to the wake here, but anyway.....


“YOU'RE excited? You should feel my nipples!”

Lost but not forgotten....

...now back to work!

MAT

[Square King]

God. This was one of those things I knew was unavoidable but absolutely dreaded the day.

[BulletMagnet]

Yep, it's a shame. You kind of get the feeling he wasn't a douche.

Well, he was apparently divorced three times (how much of it was "his fault" we'll never know, of course), but either way I still like watching him.

[Icarus]

;_;
One of my all time favourite actors, he'll be missed.

[BrianC]

I'll miss him. I loved him in the Naked Gun movies, Airplane, and Police Squad. He also made that "4D" movie at Busch Gardens better than I expected.
