Thom Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Ow, dammit! You were one of the best sir. The very best!
TangledThorns Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 My mother is from Glasgow and I always found it fascinating that Sean Connery is Scottish too! RIP
efisher Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 One of my favorite actors growing up. RIP Zed.
seti88 Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Remembering all the movies he was in... RIP to the OG..

TangledThorns Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 OMFG... This guy at Mediaite knows nothing about Connery nor 007. https://www.mediaite.com/entertainment/just-in-sean-connery-dies-at-age-90/ Quote Connery later reprised his signature role in 1971’s Diamonds are Forever and 1983’s Octopussy.
technoblue Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Connery was a cultural icon for generations. RIP Agamemnon.
Dynaman Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 With him goes an era of Hollywood. My favorite roll of his was as Indiana Jones senior, the two of them had perfect father son chemistry.
Black Valkyrie Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Just received the news, really don't know what to say. Commander .

"That's not all we shared...It's disgraceful, you're old enough to be her... her grandfather." "Well, I'm as human as the next man." "I WAS the next man!" "Oh of course... Ships passing in the night."
M'Kyuun Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Sir Sean was a legend in his own time, and I've missed seeing him on the big screen over the last decade or so. I loved his wry sense of humor, and that great burr of his. His turn as Henry Jones Sr. is my favorite of his roles, followed by Ramirez in Highlander. In just about every role he inhabited, he was a joy to watch, and the world is lesser for his passing. Rest in peace, sir.
kalvasflam Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 RIP Mr. Bond.... you were the standard. just another reminder of the crappy year we are about to put behind us.
Hikuro Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Most people have a full measure of life... and most people just watch it slowly drip away. But if you can summon it all up... at one time... in one place... you can accomplish something... glorious.
MechTech Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Yeah...another era has passed on. He will definitely be missed! My Scottish relatives will be raising a glass tonight! - MT
Kanedas Bike Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Rest in Peace. For me The Untouchables was always one of my favorite Sean Connery films; -b.
Big s Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 From oddly obscure films like Zadoz to iconic roles like 007, And even great secondary characters like Ramirez in Highlander or the elder dr Jones in last crusade, he was definitely great at what he did. He was so iconic my parents named me after him. My father was a big James Bond fan and my mom just liked Sean Connery. He had such a great voice that even parodies of him seemed more like tributes than insults.
derex3592 Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 He will be missed. One of the the all time greats. RIP Sir Sean Connery!
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted November 1, 2020 Posted November 1, 2020 I will never forget his motivating lines regarding prom queens in the Rock. RIP, Mr. Connery-you da man now dawg.
Bolt Posted November 1, 2020 Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) My favorite 007. A great sempai an awesome dr. Jones and an elegant highlander. Edited November 1, 2020 by Bolt
JB0 Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) A fantastic actor all around. Most actors would be glad to have a quarter of his career. Edited November 2, 2020 by JB0
Negotiator Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 Much respect for mr. Connery rest in peace good sir
Wolf-1 Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 My son, now 23 didn't recognize the name when I told him the news. However, once I told him Draco the Dragon was dead it clicked. My kids wore both the VHS and DVD copies out. My fondest memory in film will be him getting out of a new Aston Martin Vanquish, followed by CZJ's trip-wire/Laser practice scene. T. Dalton was my intro to Bond, so the bar was set just right for Brosnan to take over. Can't think of a better example of what a "Kingly" King should be with his cameo as Richard the Lionheart and supporting role as Arthur in First Knight.
TangledThorns Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Wife and I were discussing how there are other older action hero guys who will probably pass soon due to age. Names we brought up are: Arnold Schwarzenegger (heart issues) Gene Hackman Harrison Ford and... Clint Eastwood
