    Leslie Nielsen is dead.
    Surely you're joking.
    We're not joking, and don't call me Shirley.

    This man needs a fitting send off.

    Jane: Ah, he's caucasian.
    Frank: Caucasian?
    Jane: Yeah you know, white guy. With a mustache, about 6'3".
    Frank: Awfully big mustache.
    Woman: Please stop asking questions. How many questions? Don't you know what time it is?

    Drebin: I'm sorry. We would have come earlier, but your husband wasn't dead then.
  • Shame he died, I was hoping he would actually make a funny movie before his death.
  • I enjoyed some Leslie Nielsen movies, but I have doubts that they will still hold up today. Only a viewing will reveal the truth.

    However, I will now reveal something. Until just now, thanks to Internets, I didn't realize that Steve Martin and Leslie Nielsen were different people.

    That's odd, I was pretty similar - when I think of them, it's essentially thinking of the same person, it's only listening to their voices that reminds me they are separate people.
  • Irvin Kershner died today as well.

    I just realised something - Boney M died on the anniversary of the death of none other than...Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin.
