His Zod was iconic.

ive always been curious if he had any plans beyond making everyone kneel....what if superman (and all humans) gave him a pity kneel. Would he have been content.... i think its possible

He was also great in The Limey, with Peter Fonda.

Who? I thought for a second this was a former walk-on on the basketball team. 😀

Zod:"Kneel before Zod"

Everyone else (shrugging): "Uh okay."

Zod: "Really? You actually did it? Ummmmm, OK then. I guess we will be leaving."
(Flies off with a confused look on his face.)

Yes, i think there's a 20-30% chance it happens exactly like this. Or he just sits in house. Admiring himself and the day he made everyone kneel

 

[jibsey]

He had an imposing demeanor and played villains great.

There was a time when a tenet of the program's recruiting philosophy was to sign the best available Terence.

Sounds like a Family Guy cutaway.

Or a Terrence. Or even a Terrance or Terance. All would have fit the bill.

 

[TroyHall98]

He was really good in Valkyrie.

The name didn't ring a bell at first but yea...superman, valkyrie, wall street.... I liked him in a long forgotten flick "the adjustment bureau".

He's one of those actors who not many people know his name, but he makes every film he's in better. Lots of people in this category. Bill Camp is one. Harry Dean Stanton another.

Edit: Can't forget Stephen Root either

Bill Camp is so good.

Some other ones who steal every scene they're in and are the actors I remember over the "stars" in their movies and TV roles- Richard Jenkins, Keith David, Margo Martindale, Ben Mendelsohn, and JT Walsh (gone way too soon)
