James Tolkan has died

“Jesus, didn’t that guy ever have hair?”

  • Marty McFly

Good actor. I enjoyed the intensity of some of his characters.

He’s one of those “I know that guy” actors. You can’t quite remember his name but you always remembered his face when you saw it.

Talk about your Abe Vigodas!

I’m glad he lived a long life. Top Gun and Back to the Future were a big part of my childhood.

Godspeed. We have the watch. Valhalla.

(Is that how you do it? I’m so bad at death tributes)

QFT. When I read the thread title, I thought “Who the fuck is James Tolkan?”, but when I opened the thread and saw his picture in the preview box, I immediately thought “Ah, the principal from Back To The Future”.
