Surely, you can't be serious.
Fans of Leslie Nielsen will most certainly be repeating that classic bit of Airplane! dialogue today (as well as its rejoinder: "I am serious. And don't call me Shirley."). Nielsen, a journeyman actor who later found fame with comedy roles in Airplane! and The Naked Gun series, died late Sunday afternoon of complications from pneumonia, E! News has confirmed. He was 84.
