Very sad news :( . There had been reports that there would be a fourth movie made in the series in the near future.

"Don't call me Shirley" :( :)

It's always sad when someone who has made you laugh passes away.
Didn't realise that he was that old.
If one person does it, it's insanity. If millions do it, it's religion.

not just a great comedic actor, he was a good actor in general, he was great in the cult classic 'sci fi' film 'forbidden planet'

RIP LESLIE NIELSEN
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway

Loved that film...especially Robby :D

Leslie Neilson was almost unrecognisable without the white hair we've all become used to...

RIP Leslie and thanks for all the laughs.

Is it just me or does he look rather like Ralph Fiennes in that picture?

Will put on the Naked Gun series over the next couple of days - three movies guaranteed to make me laugh, no matter what :)
