Thanks for the Laughs, Leslie! RIP

Post by browneyedgirl » Mon Nov 29, 2010 2:27 pm

After a 12 day bout with pneumonia actor Leslie Nielsen died peacefully in his sleep yesterday. He was 84.

Personally, I thought this old gent was a fine actor. I loved his silly movies they were so off-the-wall they were hilarious.

Leslie is probably up in Heaven now making 'em all laugh.

RIP, Mr. Nielsen, you were a talented funny guy who will be missed!

Out of all the celebrities that have died recently, he's the one that I feel sad.

I just want to tell Mr. Leslie we are all counting on him! :)

Lt. Frank Drebin: Hector Savage. From Detroit. Ex-boxer. His real name was Joey Chicago.
Ed Hocken: Oh, yeah. He fought under the name of Kid Minneapolis.
Nordberg: I saw Kid Minneapolis fight once. In Cincinnati.
Lt. Frank Drebin: No you're thinking of Kid New York. He fought out of Philly.
Ed Hocken: He was killed in the ring in Houston. By Tex Colorado. You know, the Arizona Assassin.
Nordberg: Yeah, from Dakota. I don't remember it was North or South.
Lt. Frank Drebin: North. South Dakota was his brother. From West Virginia.
Ed Hocken: You sure know your boxing.
Lt. Frank Drebin: All I know is never bet on the white guy.

Frank: It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.
Jane: Goodyear?
Frank: No, the worst.

Warner: "What do I do?!?"
Frank: "I believe you are in the textile industry."

Lt. Frank Drebin: Now, Jane, what can you tell us about the man you saw last night?
Jane Spencer: He's Caucasian.
Ed Hocken: Caucasian?
Jane Spencer: Yeah, you know, a white guy. A moustache. About six-foot-three.
Lt. Frank Drebin: Awfully big moustache.

Ed: That's no way for a man to die.
Frank: No... you're right, Ed. A parachute not opening... that's a way to die. Getting caught in the gears of a combine... having your nuts bit off by a Laplander, that's the way I wanna go!

:cry:

This man was responsible for some of the biggest laughs of my adolescence. Airplane, Naked Guns, Wrongfully Accused, Spy Hard, are all still pure gold for me.
RIP and thank you Shirl-, uh sorry, Leslie. :)
