With you on airplane. I can't stand Leslie Neilson.
Surely you can't be serious?
Dont call me Shirley!
Honest question because I’m curious. Why can’t you stand him?
His "comedy" isn't funny.
I have to agree, his delivery really doesn't work for me. It feels like he's elbowing me in the ribs with every gag.
That said, it's not enough to spoil Airplane for me. Airplane is a masterpiece.
Fair point, was curious if there was a reason beyond what I suspected. I love his comedy, but my opinion of course. Totally okay for you to have your own preference and recognise you don’t find that style funny at all.
My mom was huge fan. I'm 50 now and still can't stand his acting after watching him a lot as a kid. You can add Chevy Chase to that list too.
