RIP David Warner

Loved him in Time Bandits and many other fantasy/sci fi films

Of note, he played both the main villain and elderly mentor character in Quest of the Delta Knights, one of my fave MST3K episodes

just adding his IMDB listing for convenience:

and to Paul Sorvino

It’s been a tough year for the gangster movie actors

He was Jack the Ripper in the Malcolm McDowell movie Time after Time.

He was a great English actor that wasn’t quite a household name, but much more than a mere character actor.

I will always remember him from a standout ST:TNG episode, where he asks Picard “Tell me, how many lights you see… How many?”

THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!!!

Had a good supporting role in one of the best thrillers of all time, The Omen (1974).
And he was excellent as the evil butler in Titanic. I didn’t know it was the same guy.
No idea he was in Tron. His catalog is enormous! RIP

Not a person, but RIP the Choco Taco.

Klondike is pulling the plug on a old favorite from my youth.

Last time I had one of those it was disappointing. The shell was limp and rubbery and there was barely any ice cream. I think it’s time to let this one fade away imo.

Yeah, I never cared for those. There are much better frozen treats available.

The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

It is true this time, I think.
