He used to give $5 to anyone who approached him & got his name the right way around.
RIP Michael.

Fantastic actor, RIP. When you think about it his heart had a lot of area to pump to. Sad to see him go.

My favourite actor since I was a child. Was shattered to hear about this at work today.
Will be watching Armageddon and the Whole Nine Yards (and the Whole Ten if I get time) in memory. RIP big man. He's bench pressing angels now.

Four films? Huh?
He was one of the very few good things about Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes remake.

The man with that magnificent voice that was that deep it made James Earl Jones sound like a choirboy soprano...
