One of the funniest guys in film ever.

RIP

RIP.

Loved watching the airplane movies, especially at Christmas.

AlmightyCushion · 29-11-2010 03:09AM

Shít. He was probably one of my favourite comic actors. The naked gun films and airplanes wouldn't have been the same without him.

RedXIV · 29-11-2010 03:10AM

Ah jesus, i hoped he'd never die. one of my fave actors all my life.

RIP

He must have ate the fish.

Professey Chin · 29-11-2010 03:13AM

Balls

Hard to believe one of the funniest actors was in purely serious roles until Airplane

:eek:

I grew up watching and loving Leslie's movies! Hell, most of my humour and deadpan delivery of things has been a direct result of how he did it. I aways reguraly watched Police Squad / Naked Gun / Spy Hard / Airplane! / everything he was in right back to the sci fi films of his earlier career.

I just about to go sleep but now I know that one of my, unusual choice but true, heros is dead........well, that's gonna be a bit shìtty now

Rumack: Captain, how soon can you land?
Captain Oveur: I can't tell.
Rumack: You can tell me. I'm a doctor.
Captain Oveur: No. I mean I'm just not sure.
Rumack: Well, can't you take a guess?
Captain Oveur: Well, not for another two hours.
Rumack: You can't take a guess for another two hours?

Mayor: Now Drebin, I don't want any trouble like you had on the South Side last year, that's my policy.
Frank: 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!
Mayor: That was a Shakespeare-In-The-Park production of 'Julius Caesar,' you moron! You killed five actors! Good ones!

[Frank Drebin is emptying out his files after being kicked off the force]
Frank: Hey! The missing evidence in the Kelner case! My God, he really was innocent!
Ed: He went to the chair two years ago, Frank.
Frank: Well, uh...
[Frank Drebin quickly shoves the evidence back into the file cabinet]

[Frank Drebin is angrily breaking up with Jane Spencer]
Frank: Oh, and one more thing... I faked every orgasm!

Bye Leslie, and thanks for all the laughs, showing us how deadpan comedy and spoofs should be done.

GLaDOS · 29-11-2010 03:23AM

Airplane and the naked guns were some of my favourite comedies, ridiculously funny guy, he'll be sorely missed

amacachi · 29-11-2010 03:23AM

This just reminded me I haven't watched Police Squad! yet, shall do so this week I think.

They don't make them like him anymore. This has really brought down my mood before bed.
