'Naked Gun,' 'Airplane' star Leslie Nielsen dies at 84

Ohh no! This makes me so sad. Rest in Peace, Mr. Nielsen. My favorite movie of his is still "Dracula: Dead and Loving It", though I know it's seen as pretty lame. My condolences to his family.

A great loss to the entertainment industry, but at 84 and with the life he lead I'd say it was a pretty good run.

Airplane, which I first saw as a kid, was utterly hilarious, and Nielsen was awesome with his deadpan expression. RIP.

A great loss. R I P.

R.I.P. Leslie Nielsen.

OH no, not Leslie Nielsen. Rest in Peace fellow Canuck.

Leslie Nielsen dead? Surely you can't be serious...

R.I.P.

a legend.

Ted Striker: Surely you can't be serious. Rumack: I am serious... and don't call me Shirley.

Elaine Dickinson: A hospital? What is it? Rumack: It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.

R.I.P. Leslie Nielsen

great actor period.

but someone needs to work on their math skill..' 6 foot 2 inch or 74 inches is not 2.3 meters... more like 1.88 meters

"Wilma, I promise you; whatever scum did this, not one man on this force will rest one minute until he's behind bars. Now, let's grab a bite to eat."

Enjoy your doughnuts fella.

Forbidden Planet- stone cold classic.

Police Squad- loved all six episodes.

I just want to tell you both good luck. We're all counting on you.

He had the fish.

RIP funny man and yes, it was a nice beaver.

I realize that. Now.

Funny actor, thanks for all the laughs...

This guy was a real classy guy! RIP Mr. Nielsen!

You know, he was way up there in years, it just did not show because of his tan and white hair. It occurs to me that I own more of his serious movies than his comedies. He as a good looking guy, but he never would have made his mark as a dramatic actor. Kind of like Lorne Greene, he would have just faded away.

But for those 70s and 80s comedies, he was just perfect. He did the serious broad-shouldered stuff for so long that the straight-man delivery was just natural for him... and devastating.

Another good one bites the dust.

R.I.P. Mr. Nielson.

President Bush: Frank, please consider filling a post I'm creating. It may mean long hours and dangerous nights, surrounded by some of the scummiest elements in our society.

Frank: You want me to be in your cabinet?

If it weren't for him I'd be back on the circuit riding motocross.

I thought he would never become really old.

This guy was a comedic genius. RIP, Mr. Nielsen. That line about his father arresting somebody in the winter had me in stitches.

RIP Mr.Nielsen and thanks for ALL the side-splitting laughs. He's gone to that great comedy club in the sky where all the jokes are funny, and one never gets booed off the stage. :D
