Sad.
One of the most memorial villains in film from when I was growing up. But endearing at the same time. Unfortunately relegated to so many bad parts in bad movies between Bond and Gilmore. Even if you didn’t know his name, there was no confusion who it was when you saw him though. My favorite was the longest yard. The childish glee at "I think I broke his fuckin’ neck!’ was unforgettable.
Oh, muck. NM.
I’ll try again.
Anyway, he left us with a lot of great movie-theater memories.
Thinking about it more, he was also in one of my favorite all time movie scenes of unexpected reality that made me laugh my ass off. It was an 80’s move I can’t remember the name of, total shit, that had two fat WWF brothers(maybe twins) doing some generically heroic plot . The scene had one of the brothers and Kiel fighting in a garage,and both roll around, find a heavy steel rod, and swing it at the other hitting them together. Then immediately drop it dancing around in hand pain, rather than some cliched fencing match. Having done that myself, and knowing that amazing , surprising pain from holding an steel rod energetically vibrating from impact was just funny as hell, and unepected.

When the Bad Guy on Silver Streak learns Gene Wilder killed him:
“Good for you!”
Patrick McGoohan. Not many folks from Silver Streak still around; pretty much just Gene Wilder and Ned Beatty
Sorry to hear this. I saw him at the California state fair perhaps six years ago, doing autographs, and he seemed to be in terrible shape - hunched, bent, moving slowly and with help. I guess age, arthritis and his gigantism had caught up with him.
I wanted to say hi and shake hands but something, probably a kid crisis, kept it from happening.
He had a pretty good run as an actor, all things considered. “Well… here’s to him.”
He was my favorite Solarite.
Voltaire gone.
Farewell, Eegah.
I’m sad to see him go.
But I’m glad he didn’t die because of that nail in his head

Truly, he served Man. Twice a week.
He was interviewed by WVLI last week, promoting a 50th Anniversary showing of Goldfinger, at which he was supposed to appear. He sounded terrible but talked enthusiatically about his various movie roles, particluarly “Jaws”. A few days after that it was announced that he had an accident in his home and broken a leg. Lana “Plenty O’Toole” Wood was quickly brought in as his replacement for the event.
