Count Fooku Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 (edited) Great work, now is it a dual signed Dirty Dozen item with Ernest Borgnine or should I add him to my Boston Strangler DVD that Tony Curtis signed?! Unless of course there's a picture of him frothing at the mouth during Leslie Nielsens diatrabe about his sex life in Naked Gun 2!

nicky Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Great guest to go with Borgnine! Now wouldn't Leslie Nielsen be a fine addition now. Well done guys! That would fit nicely as Neilson was in The Poseiden Adventure too with Borgnine and of course The Naked Gun with Kennedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeDonovan Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 (edited) Now wouldn't Leslie Nielsen be a fine addition now He'd be a dream guest for me - lead of Forbidden Planet, IMHO the greatest sci-fi movie ever made. Would be there like a shot! He is on the convention circuit, so it's do-able - whether or not he'd be willing to travel to the UK would be the problem I'd guess...

SunSpeed Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) Woo-ooh! Excellent announcement this. I thought George Kennedy could only attend events in the US. Sure I read that on here. Where do you begin with George Kennedy? Carter McKay in Dallas (don't think his first season on Dallas will be available to buy on DVD in time for Autographica), Ed in the Naked Gun films, The Dirty Dozen, the Airport films, Death Ship and many more. Top-notch guest in my opinion. Great work, now is it a dual signed Dirty Dozen item with Ernest Borgnine or should I add him to my Boston Strangler DVD that Tony Curtis signed?! Unless of course there's a picture of him frothing at the mouth during Leslie Nielsens diatrabe about his sex life in Naked Gun 2! That was a classic scene. Another classic bit from the Naked Gun 2 and 1/2 was: Ed: "Sex, Frank?" Frank Drebbin: "Er, not right now Ed".
