Everything is connected, because it's all being created by this one consciousness. And we are tiny reflections of the mind that is creating the universe.

Cancer blows.

Die Hard is one of my favorite films. I know that probably makes me seem like a chump of a film goer but I first saw it when it hit videotape and watched it a million times.
Willis makes Die Hard entertaining, Rickman made it great.

Then there's Galaxy Quest. One of the best (definitely top-five) Star Trek films. He's brilliantly hilarious in that.

I'll last mention Harry Potter. They say that Rowling told him but not the film Directors his character's true arc when they were shooting the first film. He carried that knowledge, making acting choices based on knowledge to which the directors were not privy, and delivered a series of performances that moved me and have left an indelible mark on my children.

R.I.P. Rickman.

Don't forget his roll in Robin Hood.

Bad movie, great performance. 

Hans Gruber is indisputabley one of the greatest movie villains of all time.

But, I don't think our fans do happily lap it up, I think they go online and talk about how it was a bad show.

dude was great.  I also liked his performance in Love Actually. 
Die Hard = best xmas ever!!!

RIP Hans.

I thought Prince of Thieves on the whole was fine (hard to be objective; I grew up watching it) but Kevin Costner's non-acting is inexcusable.

Don't forget metatron in Dogma!

Rip!

It truly does.

Simply put, he was great in whatever he did.

I hate fucking cancer

His eyes were clean and pure but his mind was so deranged
