@beschizza, might be missing a ‘C’ there, unless you have information the rest of us aren’t aware of…

I liked his performance in “Field of Dreams”.

He was in so many great films… he was fantastic in Coming to America and Conan.

Hmm… Did Miller homage the Riddle of Steel? I wouldn’t put it past him…

Mr Jones (it is a shame that America can’t knight people) had gravitas right from the beginning.

That’s a shame. An unmissable stage presence and an unforgettable voice.

What an odd movie choice to associate his career with, considering you know… Roots, Star Wars, edit not James Bond… but Scary Movie 4 it is !

Scary Movie 4 star?

To repeat what @Alvin_Goodman and @anon94804983 have uttered.

But, hey, I think he’d have appreciated the joke.

Farewell, favourite voice ever…

I was the perfect age for A New Hope when it came out, but man did this James Earl Jones TV movie scare the bejesus out of me a few years earlier:

Walking in my house at night, I couldn’t pass by a window with the curtains open without the dread of seeing an alien peeking in at me.

RIP JEJ.
