Who is that?

Surely you can't be serious.

He is serious, and don’t call him Shirley.

Leslie has been dead for the past 14 years (sadly) it's no surprise that a lot of people don't know about him.

Edit: oh.... I get it now... Damn

Facts like these make me feel really old, I grew up with that clown. Sleepovers with the Naked Gun movies were the best.

To be fair, you're not really old unless you grew up with him as a dramatic actor, before he switched to comedy.

Forbidden Planet is great.

I was so confused when I first saw that movie,not knowing he wasn't a comedian all his career.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago

14 years? It can't be 14 years because I was well out of high school and colle... Oh fuck I'm old.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

I completely forgot about it. Or chose to ignore it. Now I'm sad.

I need people to know that in the German version of that film, they made the black guys speak Bavarian and it is absolutely hilarious.
