My wife watched a movie the other night where he played the role (I think) of a MLB scout. The pic in the OP may be from that movie. I said “self, that dude is getting OLD”.
We all age. It sucks. |

I recognized him instantly but couldn’t put name to the face until it was mentioned.

Quoted: Holy crap did he age overnight! I only recognized him from his voice. View Quote No he didn't. It took him over 80 years to look like that. He had a little more color and a beard 10 years ago. |

Now if that bastard so much as twitches, I'm going to blow him straight to mars.

Check out a film he was in by Michael Mann , came out in 1983. The Keep is the name of it.

I always thought he was age appropriate and physically fit enough tough guy to be Mr Clark in the Tim Clancy movies.

Quoted: Without looking at any replies, I'll say my favorite Martian. View Quote I just realized, whenever people are reminiscing about old tv shows here My Favorite Martian and Mr Ed never get a mention. Okay, they weren't any great shakes, but five year old me thought they were hilarious. Help me Wilbur! |

Quoted: Great shakes ??? View Quote From the Oxford Language Dictionary: no great shakes - phrase of shake - INFORMAL not very good or significant. "it is no great shakes as a piece of cinema" I may have erred using "...weren't any..." in place of "...no...", but hopefully the pedantic here will forgive me |

IMO, he should have played Rambo. "First Blood" would have been a serious movie, as opposed to a Sly Stallone, guilty pleasure, cartoon.

View Quote Click To View Spoiler Best part was when the Nazi bad guy uses the cross to try and protect himself against the evil monster. Yea, that didn't work out the way he thought it would! Hot chickie snack was pretty hot, but dang if I can remember her name or face. ETA: Found out she was one of the evil types in the La Femme Nikita series and she died in 2015 of cancer. |

View Quote Don't mean to derail the thread, but you're not giving First Blood the credit it deserves are you? It was one of the first films to deal with PTSD, and the difficulty combat veterans have reintegrating back to civilian life. The second and third installments were jokes. |

View Quote "I can't get it out of my head. A dream of seven years. Everyday I have this. And sometimes I wake up and I don't know where I am. I don't talk to anybody. Sometimes a day - a week. I can't put it out of my mind." |

lol..... and I thought this was a pop-quiz and I kept waiting for the answer from the OP !!!
This reminds me of a typical Christopher Lloyd routine playing Ignatowski in Taxi; Holds up the photo, and asks everybody gathered "Does anybody know who this is?... Bobbie Wheeler replies "NO Jim. Who is it?" Jim replies " I don't know! That's why I'm asking you!" And he walks away. |

Quoted: Took a second but yeah, I knew it was Scott Glenn. He was 51 in The Hunt for Red October, 85 now. View Quote Same. Also realized how old and frail Patrick Stewart is finally looking, when I watched Multiverse of Madness. That dude seemed to have stopped aging between about 35-75, but Father Time catches up to all of us. |

View Quote The GQ article that appears to be the source of that photo has now been linked twice, from when he was 75. |
