A month ago I used the poster art for "The Forbidden Planet" as my avatar in quizzyland and it led to a minor discussion about L.N.'s work. That is sad to here of his passing. In his honor I have re-adopted that avatar for a time.

Everything I've seen of his was comedy gold. He had a way of making people laugh that not many others have. The Naked Gun movies were hilarious, and admittedly I haven't seen Airplane from start to finish, but I'll have to take some time and watch it now. RIP Leslie Nielsen
