The Longest Day is one of my favourite war movies, always liked his bit part in that.

I'll be watching The Wind and the Lion this afternoon. IMHO it's the best movie Connery ever made

"Winners go home and f*** the prom queen."

RIP, Sir. It's always sad to see the icons of your childhood or young adulthood pass (as it reminds you that you're not that far behind), but he lived to a ripe, old age and had an incredible career.

One of my favorite movies overall.

He could even carry a movie wearing a red diaper - Zardoz.

Lived a great life on his own terms. R.I.P.

Good actor but dont tear up over him.

I do believe he doesn't think people should own guns (except perhaps rich folk like himself) and wasnt against slappin' a woman who wont "back off".

He was born into the lucky-sperm club, did a great job on screen, became very rich, and poked many, many, many women. Many. Dimes, too. Many. All he wanted.

Certainly he worked hard and had a great life.

Despite hating guns he helped thousands of PPK's in the wrong caliber enter the world to sting and cut the hands of those who fired them.

RIP

The only actor I will ever mourn sincerely will be Phoebe Cates. She looks like an old Mama-san now but in her prime I would have committed hate crimes and terrorism for her to spit in my face and kick me in noots barefoot.

Otherwise meh 90 years old, in a few movies, not bad

Well, it does have the delivery like a brick through a plate glass window.

Also PPKs weren’t that bad. It’s like a Makarov but for actual people

He tried to get his doctor to start monologging so that he could live longer and escape, but it didn’t work.

Better in 7.65 mm 😎 (as described in the later books and nearly all the movies)

I always hated that stupid line since I first heard it. 🙄

Sean Connery was such a good actor that he could make a movie starring Nicholas Cage enjoyable to watch, no small feat.

I'd like to do an Amazon return for the year 2020, can we maybe exchange it for 1986?

With actors who have no talent and only activism, I agree. But actors who have talent and engage in minimal activism, I allow them their views just as I demand to be allowed mine. In the bigger picture, Connery probably made the world a little more enjoyable than if he had never existed.

Phoebe Cates, to this day I still hate Kevin Kline. Jennifer Connelly will be another sad day as well.

His widow said he was suffering from dementia in the last few years of his life. Glad he's no longer suffering.
