Indeed a very cool guy and a great loss - first saw him on the big screen in '78 - real shame -


The first of the true "Method" actors......

You mean as opposed to Mr Brecht (1898-1956) and his contemporaries?

While many people disagree, and I understand why, I personally think one of his greatest moments was when he sang "Luck Be A Lady" in Guys & Dolls. All I could do was sit there with my jaw on the floor saying "but... but... but... THATS THE GODFATHER!" a truely priceless moment.

Or his 2 minute role in Superman for which he got paid £2m and a higher billing than Christopher Reeve.  Now that's impressive!

Its worth noting that Reeve was an unknown at that point and you couldnt really expect Hackman and Brando to play second fiddle to him -


Reeve didnt get top billing in S2 either, that went to Hackman -

Yeah, I suppose that could be construed as a bit buff-like.
Excellent fun though, eh?

Erm.  Yes.  Doesn't look great though, does it?  I may have to create a new one.   With hair.


Playing with the MLP's was cool - we chucked things at them to knock 'em down, encouraged the cat to eat them and the bit where we fired Megtron's missiles at their heads was entertaining too!


(MLP - note the way I've managed to make the My Little Ponies sound cool by acronysing (it's a real word, honest  ) them... sorta like WMD)

"Excellent work, Private.  And has it been deployed in a fashion that caused Mass Destruction?"
