one of my favorites. RIP.

And of course, way, way much more than voice of Darth Vader. Loved him in the Jack Ryan / Tom Clancy book based movies and in Field Of Dreams.

Yeah, Professor Proton

after the discussion the other week - check out the 3 episode story line with James Earl Jones guest staring.

in Coming to America. Delivered so many great subtle lines.

So you see, my son, there is a very fine line between love and nausea.

Son, I know we never had a talk about this but I always assumed that you had sex with your bathers. I know I do.

Semmi, you have disgraced yourself and you must be punished. You will confine yourself to our royal suite at the Waldorf-Astoria...
And I want you to bathe him thoroughly.

Son, please. I'm more than the exalted ruler of this land and the master of all I survey. I'm also a concerned dad.

Wrong. You are a prince who has never tied his shoes. Believe me, I tied my own shoes once. It is an overrated experience.

Flags at half staff in Zamunda.

just one of the all time classics

RIP

One of the most memorable voices ever.

lines.
He will be surely be missed.

Rest In Peace

No, he played himself and ran around with fanboy Sheldon. Bob Newhart was Professor Proton.

Darth Vader, Thulsa Doom, Musafa. Nobody can come close to what he did!.

Actually, there is a 3rd one. Jones starred in The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings movie. Fun movie with Billy Dee Williams.

Sad day. James Earl Jones was one of my favorites. Great actor.

but if you had asked me, I would have told you I didn't think he would ever die. Death just seemed out of character for this guy.

Wildest random fact I've heard in a while: James Earl Jones and Carrie Fisher didn't meet face-to-face for the first time until they taped that episode in 2014.

Him as Musafa was legendary.

I know what you mean. I remember the day those scumbag Eagles got their SB was the same day the dad on Frasier croaked.

I remember I didn't hear any news about it but the next day after the biggest tragedy in history, yup, I heard the news of that guy dying and I'm like oh my God a nice smelly gross shit flavored cherry on top. You cannot win them all.
