Who is that?

[-] jubilationtcornpone@sh.itjust.works 60 points 6 months ago

Surely you can't be serious.

[-] darko8472@feddit.uk 60 points 6 months ago

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

Thanks for providing an actual answer

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.

[-] illi@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

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

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Leslie has been dead for the past 14 years

And loving it.

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.

[-] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago

Well played, people who handled the international rights!

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

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