Gary Coleman's death is gonna be overshadowed by these very sad news for sure...

He was awesome in Easy Rider, Blue Velvet, Speed, True Romance and a bunch of other good movies...

RIP Dennis Hopper, at least he lived pretty long.

FUCK!

Out of the Blue, Blue Velvet, Speed, Last Movie, Red Rock West, Easy Rider, TCM2, etc., etc., etc.

This guy has been in so many awesome movies, and has always been awesome -- and is a great director too. Been a big fan for nearly half my life.

Fuck this shit...

space 05.29.2010 05:59 PM

Yeah, man. Talented dude.
There was an exhibition in Melbourne a few months back based on his films.

atsonicpark 05.29.2010 07:52 PM

LET'S FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

verme (prevaricator) 05.30.2010 06:22 AM

indeed

Keeping It Simple 05.30.2010 06:25 AM

Dennis Hopper was also cast in the other James Dean movie Giant. Dennis Hopper always swore James Dean wasn't gay. I believe him.

verme (prevaricator) 05.30.2010 06:26 AM

ha.

demonrail666 05.30.2010 11:37 AM

RIP and all that, but I did get pretty tired of watching him dialing in his stock act for some of his later films. His single style of acting might've made him a decent living in Hollywood as their goto psycho but it also saw him become a bit of a cliche fairly quickly. IMHO.

chicka 05.30.2010 01:20 PM

RIP. For me his best acting job was Shooter in Hooisers....

While I agree, he began to "just play himself" and was quite predictable.... but being a cliche' of yourself is a lot less distasteful than having no character. Although a lot of his characters were just riddled with his personality and mannerisms to the core, he was still one of the most unique and true personalities in Hollywood.

Some of my favorite roles:

You know what Bruce Smith does in these shoes? bad things man...Bad things...

!@#$%! 06.01.2010 02:55 PM

ah, he was a fucking republican, but his acting work was alright. i give him most credit for his hippie opus, "easy rider", which had significant cultural impact. the parts he played in blue velvet etc were good and/or entertaining but not nearly as influential.

YES!!! has it been that long? .....remember those commercials perfectly.....but don't remember it being so long ago that Bruce Smith was still eating up QB's. RIP Bruce!

DeadDiscoDildo 06.01.2010 05:44 PM

This man will always be a hero/legend to me. For 3 reasons.

Easy Rider
Blue Velvet
& Super Mario Bros.

It all started with bruce Smith when he got those 4 sacks in a playoff game! It drove the "ref" nuts! That was my fave commercial ever.

Most of my childhood was spent on watching Speed on VHS.

RIP
