The Naked Gun remake

Surely, they can't be serious?!?

Never heard of it, but I usually avoid Neeson movies.

This has got to be a goof of some kind. As in a joke not a mistake, although it also qualifies as that. But then I remembered Neeson in this. I know Leslie Nielsen and his deadpan delivery is what made the role so hilarious but I'm still not sure if Neeson can make it work.

Okay, so I saw the title and thought "well, either they absolutely nail the casting or this is a disaster." And then I saw Neeson and...yeah. That might work. I immediately thought of the video WHIT just posted. As nuts as this sounds, I think Neeson might be able to make it work. At the very least, casting him suggests the people involve understand why Leslie Nielsen was perfect for the role.

I think it's great casting because it will allow Neeson to make fun of precisely the kind of tough hombre roles he's been playing for the last few years...

I'm getting probably too much amusement from the fact that "Liam Neeson," as a name, kinda sounds like someone trying to remember and then say Leslie Nielsen's name. While drunk.

Hollywood has completely run out of original ideas.

Kinda sad.

Getting a strong feeling of deja vu all over again

they should leave all the original movies alone

But how would they make any money?

Frank, get ahold of yourself.

I hope she gets the part!!

Liam Neesom as Lt Frank Drebin? I don't know...I'm willing to keep an open mind.

That's Frank Drebin Jr. He will be the son of Leslie Nielsen's iconic character.
