Rest in Peace, Leslie Nielsen

[SenseiSteve]

RIP Leslie Nielsen - he was one of my favorite actors - very very funny. You had to pay attention and focus on a lot of his comedy.

I was surprised to read this today.
He was a favorite of mine even before his comedy career took hold.

It's a loss for the movie world.

I haven't paid attention to the news today and had no idea until I read this thread!

Airplane! The Naked Gun... Funny movies! He'll be missed.

Definitely a character! I've always wondered what it would be like to see him and Steve Martin in a movie!

Nielsen was known for his comedy but some of his "normal" work was quite good too. You'd have to pull out the archives though!

I've always wondered what it would be like to see him and Steve Martin in a movie!

Their styles were very compatible indeed.

Many thanks to Leslie Nielsen for the comedy he put in the air. He was also a leading man in his day.
