Venneh Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Dammit. What the hell is it with the last few years and celebrity deaths? Finding Airplane and watching it tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drqshadow Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 I just watched Airplane! a few months ago for the first time in maybe a decade, it's aged amazingly well. I don't know if it's because I remembered some scenes word for word or because it's still genuinely funny material, but I was grinning ear-to-ear from start to finish. Either way, Nielsen found his home in that film. He'll be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxPower Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 I love the interview with him after Airplane where he was asked about the dangers of being cast against type. His response was something like "my whole career has been against type, I'm finally doing type"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Surely this can't be true! It is unfortunately true, and don't call me Shirley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Canadian Legend. Maybe I should pull Grizzly out for Dread Media. RIP, sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainAmerica2011 Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 I was always amazed at how well he aged. I unfortunately saw the "Scary Movie" with him in it about four years ago, and he looked about the same as in the Naked Gun one's from twenty years ago. Crazy, I thought he would live forever.
