1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Ah I thought he was funny in the second conan movie. When he goes to sleep it looks like he is meditating. Poor guy. I like the narration at the start of the first conan movie that he does. Hope he is in a better place now. Quote
Hikuro Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Wasn't he also the uncle figure in Sidekicks? Either way, that's REALLY freakin to bad so many popular actors amongst generations and people like us are dying off now.... Quote
Veritas Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) Aww man that's sad to hear, i remember him from a number of movies and most recently Samurai Jack. Edited July 24, 2006 by Veritas Quote

Golden Arms Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Damn that sucks. They had one of his films on yesterday. It was a war film that he did with Steve McQueen. He was also the wizard in Highlander 3. Quote
Godzilla Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 He was in Sand Pebbles which was an excellent movie. He is definitely the pioneers of the asian acting. I enjoyed that movie. RIP my friend. Thanks for the memories. Quote
