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.

[–] nevemsenki@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

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

[–] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 18 points 6 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.

Leslie has been dead for the past 14 years

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.

Well played, people who handled the international rights!

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.de 1 points 6 months ago

Dear gods... I've forgotten about that!
