NOTE: For anyone who has an Xbox 360, I’ll be hosting a Netflix party for this just to try it out and see how it’ll work for our purposes. Join in if you can! Add Kauza on Xbox Live and join the party. We’ll be starting at 9:00.
Something somewhat startling occurred to me earlier this week: I know very, very little of the full body of work of Leslie Nielsen. I have a good excuse, of course. Being born after much of Nielsen’s work had been filmed, I can hardly be blamed for thinking only of things like Airplane! and The Naked Gun when I hear his name. But there’s no excuse for remaining ignorant.Â
That’s why the Flixist community will be watching The Reluctant Astronaut this Saturday at 9:00 Central. The film stars Don Knotts and Leslie Nielsen, and while it’s not one of Nielsen’s most prominent roles, he was just as fantastic as a co-star as he was a leading man. So to celebrate his great career, let’s get together, watch this great comedy, and talk about a fantastic actor.
