Why can I hear 70's porn music when I read that?

I use the "I just want to tell you (both/all) good luck, we're all counting on you" line irl sometimes.

My humble dream is that one day, before I'm dead, someone will get it.

Surely, one does not just walk into Mordor.

They won't be expecting it, so that's exactly what I plan to do. And don't call me Shirley.

Frodo: We do, and don't call me Shirley

Who are you and how did you get in here?

I'm a wizard, and I'm a wizard.

Looks like I picked the wrong era to stop sniffing glue

One of my favorite lines to drop in normal conversation. Just out of the blue. It really throws people for a loop of they don't get the reference.

Sam: "Go on. Now! Throw it in the fire! What are you waiting for? Just let it go!"

Elrond: "I just want to tell you both good luck. We're all counting on you."

Surely you can't be serious.

[–] darko8472 61 points 7 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

[–] Blaze@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 7 months ago

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.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 17 points 7 months ago (1 children)

To be fair, you're not really old unless you grew up with him as a dramatic actor, before he switched to comedy.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Forbidden Planet is great.

[–] nevemsenki@lemmy.world 5 points 7 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 7 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 7 months ago

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

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 3 points 7 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!

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