Today, Leslie Nielsen of Airplane & Naked Gun comedic fame passed away. This one kinda hit me hard, as I have sooooooooooo many fond, fond memories of this man making me laugh. Not only that, but he was also awesome in Forbidden Planet, The Posideon Adventure, and countless other roles. Thank you for all the fantastic laughs, Mr. Nielsen. May you R.I.P.

No.
NO.

Goodbye, Mr. Nielsen.


I put on my [twin slasher] face.

I also go by Spectro D., Idylleaus, Malabar, and Dumb-bit Twofuck.

He was really silly, I'm sorry he left ; ;
He did parody movies back in the day when they were actually good

This is sad... I loved this guy. He was hilarious. May he rest in pieces, and annoy those in heaven by eternally wishing them good luck and telling them that we're all counting on them. Over and over again.

Don't forget he was in the Hot Shots movies as well.

Well, wow... Okay. Just wow.

Seriously I loved his performances in those movies, so seeing he's dead now... That's just sad.

No he wasn't. You're thinking of Lloyd Bridges, I think.

No way, Leslie?

Wow. He was such a funny guy.

how old was he?

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

That's odd. My mom JUST told me the same thing.

It's a DAMN shame that the man died. He was effin' hilarious. Naked Gun, Dracula: Dead and Lovin' It, Superhero Movie... I'm gonna miss him.

Courage is the Magic that turns Dreams into Reality.

I learned that all things explode in slowmotion if you punch them hard enough.

You may have to be on fire for that to happen, though.

Indeed. And knowing him, he's now truly "Dead and Loving It". 8D

He's a comedic legend... May he rest in peace, with a whoopie cushion in tow.
