    93 years old. A good run.

    Great actor (remember him in "Red October?"). Remarkable voice too, no?

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Wow. He may have been the largest movie icon for my generation. Everybody is going to immediately go to Vader and Mufasa, but Thulsa Doom in Conan, Mr. Mettle in The Sandlot, all the spy thrillers like Clear and Present Danger… Wow…

          Didn’t he have a massive speech impediment as a kid and learned to battle through it so well he eventually gained his iconic voice?

          Great filmography.

            The Voice.

            Period.

            “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

            Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

                Youths these days say everything's iconic, but he really was an icon. RIP.

                                Genocidal mass murderer with a heart of gold, because he sacrificed for his children at the end.
