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?

rallyboy Posted 29 November, 2010 Share Posted 29 November, 2010 great films, funny bloke, the king of deadpan delivery. Must have taken forever to film some of those scenes. I hope OJ has an alibi this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 29 November, 2010 Share Posted 29 November, 2010 Ted Striker: I flew single engine fighters in the Air Force, but this plane has four engines. It's an entirely different kind of flying altogether. Rumack, Randy: [together] It's an entirely different kind of flying. Rumack: What was it we had for dinner tonight? Elaine Dickinson: Well, we had a choice of steak or fish. Rumack: Yes, yes, I remember, I had lasagna. R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fowllyd Posted 29 November, 2010 Share Posted 29 November, 2010 A fabulous comic actor, though in his earlier years he played some romantic leads, such as Forbidden Planet, an excellent science fiction take on Shakespeare's Tempest. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ee/ForbiddenPlanet1-2.jpg But he'll be best remembered for his magnificent deadpan performances later in his career.

Redbul Posted 29 November, 2010 Share Posted 29 November, 2010 "Nice beaver...." Genuinely gutted when I saw this news, and equally gutted when Bexy plagiarised the hospital gag!!!

skintsaint Posted 29 November, 2010 Share Posted 29 November, 2010 RIP [/url]Well, when I see five weirdos, dressed in togas, stabbing a man in the middle of the park in full view of a hundred people, I shoot the bastards, that's *my* policy! - That was a Shakespeare-In-The-Park production of 'Julius Caesar,' you moron! You killed five actors! Good ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz Posted 29 November, 2010 Share Posted 29 November, 2010 They've got to put a flashing red light on the coffin, and drive through the streets, through a ladies changing room, onto a rollercoaster, through a baseball field before crashing into the open grave. Its what he would have wanted. RIP Leslie Nielsen, dead at 83 and 1/3. Seriously though, such a good actor and deadpan comedy like his isn't the same today with the likes of Will Ferrell.

dubai_phil Posted 29 November, 2010 Share Posted 29 November, 2010 There simply wasn't any other choice this evening. Finish dinner, crack open a reasonable bottle of plonk and sit back and re-enjoy Naked Gun. What's that? I can't hear you. stop shooting the gun while you're talking.... I know it's worng to commercialise these things but it would be one fantastic Christmas Present to get a boxed set of "Best of" Leslie Nielsen movies for Christmas.

Sheaf Saint Posted 29 November, 2010 Author Share Posted 29 November, 2010 There simply wasn't any other choice this evening. Well, there was: we watched Airplane. But that's probably only because I don't own a copy of Naked Gun. I do have the DVD of Police Squad though, so perhaps we can watch all of that tomorrow night instead.

Saint 76er Posted 30 November, 2010 Share Posted 30 November, 2010 Neilsen carrying out a police raid... female suspect .. "Is this some kind of bust?" Neilsen (observing the lady's chest) ..

Suhari Posted 30 November, 2010 Share Posted 30 November, 2010 Absolute legend; I never tire of watching his stuff. Did some damn funny TV interviews too. Seemed like a genuine person too.

CB Fry Posted 30 November, 2010 Share Posted 30 November, 2010 I loved the end of Police Squad when they all used to freeze as the credits would roll. The baddies always got away! It doesn't work written down, but I always giggle at the closing scene where they start pouring a coffee and Nordberg says "say when". "Wh..."[closing theme and "freeze frame"]. As I say, it doens't make sense written down. But I, for one, am ****ing myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
