I may have to try to find a copy of Enemy Mine to watch in remembrance.

    I have not seen Diggstown, thanks for the recommendation.

    And James Woods is indeed a dick, which makes me glad I didn’t say anything to him when I saw him at a restaurant in Hollywood years ago when I lived in L.A.

    Not that I ever went up to celebrities and talked to them unprompted anyway, but he’s pretty much the only one I can think of who I saw when I lived there that I’m not sorry I didn’t get to talk to. I suppose technically also Jared Leto, but I’m sure we could have had some sort of conversation.

    I am sorry I didn’t get to talk to Michael Clarke Duncan while he was still alive, but at least I got to see the only person I’ve ever seen get out of a Cadillac Escalade who really did need a car that big.

        All I know from seeing him outside of the movies is that the man was an absolute mountain that cameras did not do justice to. I honestly have never seen a more huge person. I don’t mean obese, just massive. Tall, wide, etc. But also in shape. Even if I didn’t know who he was, it would have been stunning. Like I don’t know how strong he actually was, but if you ever wanted to see a real-life version of a big, bulky Marvel superhero, he was it.
