RIP - Peter Fonda Dead at 79

I liked him in Easy Rider.

Sad, but excellent username/post combo.

He wasn’t born to follow…RIP, Mr Fonda.

Smooth roads, Captain America.

Captain America: [to the Stranger] Yeah, I’m, I’m hip about time. But I just gotta go.

Peter Fonda: time traveler.

Now he knows what it’s like to be dead…

All 3 writers of Easy Rider are gone now and only Jack is left of the stars.

What?

A coincidence, Arte TV just showed the Woodstock film, and now “Easy Rider” is about to start. Although I OUGHT to like it, after having seen it at least three times, I never really got into the movie. Maybe I have to try again.

Fonda famously inspired John Lennon to write “She Said She Said” at a party by repeatedly saying “I know what it’s like to be dead!” while tripping on acid.

I saw Ulee’s Gold in the theater and he was great in it. RIP.

I got the “She said” reference, but not this one.

They all died August 16th.

Oh wow, I guess everyone’s gotta go sometime. RIP Peter Fonda, you did this world a lotta good!

He was excellent in The Limey. RIP.
