Re: R.I.P Leslie Nielsen

I loved the Police Squad/ Airplane humour, but he was a serious actor before all that, and starred in lots of films, but my favourite was Forbidden Planet (1954?).
Classic to sci-fi fans.

Yes I remember him in "Forbidden Planet"......along with the great Robbie the Robot.....who would go on to feature in one of my fav kids TV programmes..."Lost in Space"....
Cheers

Re: R.I.P Leslie Nielsen

Was sad to hear about this, remember renting one of the Naked Gun movies with a mate and we laughed our heads off. I remember his performance in cult 80's horror/dark comedy Creepshow, I think he played the villain in one of the stories and it took me by surprise how well he could do other roles away from comedy. Seemed like a really nice guy too.

RIP Leslie.

Re: R.I.P Leslie Nielsen

He was a comedy legend.
I watched his Police Squad tv series a few times. Hilarious.
RIP Leslie.

Re: R.I.P Leslie Nielsen

I loved his films. They appeal totally to my stupid sense of humour and make me laugh out loud. For that I salute him, and I won't call him Shirley.
