I remember seeing this film as a kid, and for some odd reason the last line of the film has stuck with me. Another mission is sent to Mars after the failed first one, and the sole survivor of the first makes radio contact. “My stars! A voice from Mars.”
The main cast of Star Wars is still with us.
From earlier in the thread:
We ought to be thinking of puppet and marionette movies – they’re immortal.
Alas, not Peter Cushing.
There’s already a thread for that…
Or Alec Guinness. I think one of the Jawas is also dead, but I can’t remember which one.
We need to find a documentary about Tortoises or Sequoias that came out in the 50’s.
Nearly all the main actors in American Grafitti (1973) are alive (other than Wolfman Jack).
I’m a doofus. I didn’t even know Sir Alec had died.
Whoo hoo! I am still in the lead with Robinson Crusoe on Mars from 1964.
1964, people, that’s what you have to beat.
This time last year, the three principals of Dr. No (1962) were alive, but Joseph Wiseman passed away last October. We still have Sean and Ursula, though.
But Not 1988’s Sand By Me. Damn you to hell, River Phoenix!
The Man Who Would Be King (1975) - Sean Connery, Michael Caine, Christopher Plummer, Saeed Jaffrey, Shakira Caine, Mohammad Shamsi, and Albert Moses are all still alive.
However, Karroom Ben Bouih, who made his sole film appearance in this movie at the age of 103, is not.
The one on the left.
My left or his?
“Mr Lucas, we’ve been hearing some rumors about the Jawas.”
“Listen, I don’t care what those women are saying-”
“No, Mr Lucas, this is a different rumor. People are saying one of the Jawas is dead.”
“Oh my God, it’s not Lefty, is it?”
“No Sir, Lefty’s fine.”
“Is it Slappy or Bobo?”
“No, they’re both alive.”
“Is it Shorty?”
“Which Shorty are you talking about?”
“How many Shortys do we have?”
“Eleven. But all of them are alive.”
“So who’s dead?”
“You see that Jawa over there? The one that’s just lying there on the ground. He hasn’t moved in a week. So we’re thinking he’s the dead one.”
“Oh no, not Stinky.”
Did anyone else hear the last line in Bug’s Bunny’s hairdresser voice?
Sid and Nancy.
I don’t anyone else was listening.
