"Drugs...drugs..."
"Nurse! Get this man some drugs! Can't you see he's in pain?"
"No...no...heroin Frank, heroin..."
"That's a pretty tall order, Nordberg. You'll have to give me a couple of days on that one."

“It’s the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year’s Day.” – Frank
“Goodyear?” – Jane
“No, the worst.” – Frank

There will NEVER be anyone good enough to fill Nielson's shoes.
NO REMAKE!

I had the honor of meeting Leslie Nielsen about a year before he passed. We talked about his time on these films and he told me that the most fun he has ever had as an actor was during the filming of the baseball scenes during the first film! He was smiling as he even just talked about it! He was a truly sweet man and I will never forget my encounter with him!

Oh, and I can’t believe Minty did not mention that Weird Al actually had a cameo in all 3 Naked Gun movies!!!! 😊

Anyone here a fan of Dracula: Dead and Loving It? 😄

One of my absolute favorites Leslie Nielsen never gets old.

The baseball scene itself is one of the greatest sports scenes in a movie ever. Getting all of those announcers together was brilliant and so funny. Just like Airplane, I have watched this movie so many times. Thanks for talking about it!

Always liked how Ed and the crime lab scientist walk through the door into the crime lab, while Frank walks around the set wall into the lab, literally breaking the 'fourth wall'. This classic is full of little details you catch each time watching.

Watched these movies so many times as a kid. I’ll say it again, growing up in 80’s and 90’s was the best.

"When I see 6 weirdos dressed in togas stabbing the hell out of someone in broad daylight, I shoot first and ask questions later..." - "Frank, that was a Shakespeare In The Park performance of Julius Cesar! You killed 7 good actors that day!!!" Still cracks me up as I typed it! LOL Such a BRILLIANT movie. And neat facts you dug up Minty. Though a 'reboot' utterly disgusts me! But I have to say the zany, quick gag and dialog definitely resurfaced with Zucker like quality in The Grand Budapest Hotel! Far from Naked Gun in one way, but so similar in another. For fans of Naked Gun - I urge you to see The Grand Budapest Hotel, it's well worth it!

Loved this and Police Squad! No one except Lloyd Bridges has the same delivery as Leslie

[Mushroom]

Most reboots today fail because they try to "make it for modern audiences", and loose why they were classics.

"Hey, it's Enrico Pallazzo!"

[JustinEvitable]

"I can't hear you. Don't fire the gun while you're talking."

[Blitzo]

“I’m lieutenant Frank Drebin, Police Squad. And don’t ever let me catch you guys in America”

[kivsanchez]

I loved the humor of The Naked Gun. I loved how the characters took themselves seriously but were hilarious the whole time. It may have been the funniest movie I ever saw with more laugh out loud moments than any other movie, from the intro credits to the ending. Brilliant!

[dotdecorandmore]

My favorite scene. "Hey! It's Enrico Palazzo!"

[ryanponder]

"Hey! The missing evidence in the Kelner case! My God, he really was innocent!"
"He went to the chair two years ago, Frank"

[sassykaren]

The Naked Gun and Airport movies bring back memories of when my dad was still alive. He and I would always watch movies like this together and have a lot of fun. Thank you Minty for another great video 👍

Getting Leslie Nielsen to do slap-stick comedy in 1980 is like getting Ed Harris or Adrian Brody to do it today. And having it totally work! An actor known for serious work, playing it absolutely straight and utterly CRUSHING it!
