Hopper dies at 74 (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/05/29/dennis-hopper-dead-dies-a_n_594439.html)

You will be missed, you crazy old bastard.

Oh what ?

Fuck.

I hate these threads.

He's one I really will miss.

"One through nine, no maybes, no supposes, no fractions. You can't travel in space, you can't go out into space, you know, without, like, you know, uh, with fractions – what are you going to land on – one-quarter, three-eighths? What are you going to do when you go from here to Venus or something? That's dialectic physics."

He's smoking with Saint Joe now. :sad:

Doh.

Is he the second or the third in this round of "they come in threes"?

I always liked his style. He will be missed.

I just rewatched True Romance.  :heartbreak:

 :crying_panda:

RIP

I hadn't even heard he had been sick... This sucks.

He'd been sick for a while now. Shame to see him go, but it wasn't all that unexpected. Now I am curious as to who will be the third.

The scene with him and Walken is one of the greatest of all time.

Dennis Hopper has played some of the best scenery-chewers of all time.  King Koopa, the Deacon, the dictator from Land of the Dead, Victor Drazen in 24 season 1.  There has never been a better bad-movie villain.

Do you know what Bruce would do if he found me messing with his shoe, man?

Haha! (/shudder)

Bad things, man.

Am I the only one seeing chrisptoher lee here?

Probably not, that is Christopher Lee.

I was responding to Triforcer's statement with the acutal best bad movie villain. Although the last couple pictures I saw of Dennis Hopper, he was looking kind of Cristopher Lee-ish himself.

Second if you're going to insult Gary Coleman by elevating this fucking hack to his level. Hopefully number 2 will be Jack Nicholson which will set up a nice triumvirate of actors who've made a career of playing the exact same fucking character for decades, yet are somehow regarded as "good" at their job. That would make Tom Cruise a shoe in for the number 3 spot.

Dennis Hopper dying 20 years ago would have been sad. Dennis Hopper dying now is meh. Considering the only thing of note he's done in the last five years is shill for investment banks and retirement funds looking to snag boomers who want to pretend they're still young, it's hard to muster anything but a shrug. Also, he's not a good villain. Gary Oldman, now he's a good villain. Except in 5th Element. Daniel Day Lewis is good too. Fuck the guy who played Floogie or whatever his name was in Spy Kids is a better villain than hopper. The minute Hopper shows up on screen it's just "Great. "Edgy" disjointed drug addled rambling with a mildly constipated face." Ugh.

I'll just leave this here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqccyUpnZwA)

4th, actually.  You all forgot Dio who died before Coleman and the drummer for Slipknot who died on Friday.

Dio had to have been part of a different trio, 2 weeks is too long a time.

And the drummer from Slipknot does not count in the threes equation because if you say his name the general populace will not have a clue who he is.

Psycho.

You guys sound just like my old Auntie Rose talking about bad things happening in threes.  She also used to make the Malocchio sign at all sorts of things (like divorced men) and the sign of the cross whenever she passed a priest, church or cemetery.  Some of you guys are like her.  A crazy old lady.

Totally.

Guilty, so I'm frequently told.

ARTHUR:  Old woman!
  DENNIS:  Man!
  ARTHUR: Old Man, sorry.  What knight live in that castle over there?
  DENNIS:  I'm thirty seven.
  ARTHUR:  What?
  DENNIS:  I'm thirty seven -- I'm not old!

Yeah, what the fuck?  Seriously, 74 years olds who can't dance for their supper get no sympathy regardless of their previous 40 years of entertainment contribution.  Fucking hacks.
