Yeah I didn't realize it when I heard the name, but the minute I saw his face I thought "poor koopa".
Nintendo players and One Piece readers, just better people.

Very sad, I was a big fan of him. But like Perm said it was something that everyone was prepared for with him having prostate cancer. :(

yeah they had Easy Rider on about a week or 2 ago, and i had wondered if he had already died and thats why they were playing the movie..because it despite its cult status was never on before...
i checked his wikipedia site, and I was like...nope still alive, but time marches on.

Liked him in Hoosiers.

I remember playing You Don't Know Jack (Movies) and they had a Dis or Dat where you had to choose if Dennis Hopper played a nice guy or a psycho.

Every answer was psycho.

He was an amazing actor and survived John Wayne. RIP

I am a little annoyed that his wife could get his estate (he was in the process of getting divorced from her and had gotten a legal order for her to leave his property, but she ignored it and continued living there and got a lawyer to stop him from removing her from his will).

I am only familiar with his work on Super Mario Bros.. Still, RIP.

You've never seen Apocalypse Now?  You need to remedy the situation ASAP.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

Maybe I have seen some movies with him in them and I just don't remember. I've seen Speed, for example, but a long time ago and I forgot he was in it.
