Some things should just be left alone.

I agree, but I did laugh quite a bit at the Nordberg bit.

 

[Kainz]

That final bit was hilarious

 

[ChroniC]

It will never end, I bet before I die they remake this one.

 

[ninjabib]

I'm a massive Naked Gun fan and this does not look good.

 

[Begbie]

Can't do naked gun comedy these days, why not just make a fun slapstick movie without using the name.

 

[Tombstone]

No, no, no....and just one more , No.

Nielsen cannot be topped, if there are some thing that should just never be rebooted/remade, its stuff like Naked Gun and Airplane. Just NO.

 

[gettothechopper]

congrats great job on making me lol so loud with that last joke

It's not cause the idea is bad, but because Leslie Nielsen very much embodied that type of comedy. It's like a busker trying to pull of Michael Jackson.

You can't pull of this style of comedy in the current climate, and doing so with a Leslie Nielsen legacy series is beyond the pale. I can't see many old fans being on board, and I'm not sure where the new fans for this sort of content are to be found either?

The only funny bit in the trailer

Liam Neesen must be horrifically miscast in this.

Probably not as he was in A Million Ways to Die in the West which also involved Seth MacFarlane

I'll give it a watch and can only hope it's funny. Don't think it'll be as good as the original though, but it's something to watch over the day to day junk on crud TV

Absolutely, please leave airplane well well alone.
Nothing can top it..

Yeah, and that was awful too.

Leslie was Frank Drebin for me. No one can pull it off.

 

[rids57]

NO!

 

[Terminal_Boy]

For ****’* sake Hollywood, can you at least pretend to come up with another original story this decade?

 

[Bubo]

I think I can tell just from that tiny clip that they will be making the Nordberg character into a wise cracking streetwise know-it-all hipster dude instead of a hapless buffoon, and that alone would be enough to annoy me to hell. I don't actually mind the idea of Liam Neeson playing Drebin, as for that role you want someone who plays it perfectly straight just as Leslie Nielsen did, and I think Liam Neeson could play it like that. But yeah, I can well imagine the writing/story will be average tat at best.

I like that you can tell all that from a 3-4 second glance at the camera and shake of the head.
