He was from the Airplane movies wasn't he? His best moments was the Police Squad series for me... and Forbidden Planet.

Just a shame that he was never used for more comedic effect since those movies.

I don't care if the only funny thing he ever did was the Naked Gun movies. Those movies were the ****. RIP Leslie Nielsen.

Yep. All of those were great!

Well he was, just badly. I cut him slack on that though. :)

:rofl:

Absolutely love Airplane!


This is a sad day. :( Miss ya Dr. Rumack.

Heard about this yesterday, how sad. RIP buddy.

Aside from what's already been mentioned, he was also classic in Creepshow :)

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!

God I think Ferral is trash if he's leading.

Am I evil for asking the person who told me this immediately if he lost his life in a very over the top slapstick way? You know, like David Carradine.

I don't know how well known Louis de Funes overthere, but he during one of his famous rants on a filmset. Classic.
