Rest in Peace Sir Sean Connery.

Damn. But he was 90.

Had been unwell and passed away in his sleep.

The best...... wonderful actor, person THE 007.

RIP Sean thank you!!

 

[Rocktheworld]

Wow. Sad.

My first experience of Connery was Last Crusade but man, what an absolute icon. Someone every man could look to emulate.

The coolest Bond scene ever, will make a pimp envious and a playa jealous:

Unless you were there, you have no idea of the excitement and anticipation that greeted each release of a Sean Connery "James Bond" film in the 60's. I saw "Thunderball" at the old Webb Theater on the Silas Deane and the line was backed up a quarter-mile down the highway.

I remember back in 62 when Dr. No was released and a friend said that I absolutely had to see it. It had me when the "3 blind mice" first appeared and then had me again when Ursula Andress appeared on the beach. As Mauconn said THE 007. RIP James.

Goldfinger was a movie my father took me and my older brother to. We weren't even 10 years old. I was blown away and instantly idolized James Bond (i.e. Sean Connery). I never felt the same with the newer characters,

'PuOssy' Galore was a character in that movie. It took me another 10 years to actually find out how provocative her name was. At the time I thought she was named after a cat. Only a Bond movie could get away with that back then.

A great actor with a great accent.

Loved his appearances on Jeopardy

The excitement and anticipation of each new James Bond film has never ceased for me.

Sad he was an amazing actor and person. Was just watching that movie he looked pretty old then and played the role of Indiana's father very well, despite being just 12 years older then Harrison Ford. His arguments with Indiana were the best. Who else could come up with a novel idea to scare away a flock of birds to crash a Nazi plane, or pissing off Indiana enough to steal a gun and shoot up Nazis. He was the brains to Indiana getting the holy grail, having the diary and his old man knowledge.

"Oh yeah and who's gonna come to save you Jr"

The cars, the chicks and the villains.

 

[UofCT]

Welcome to the Rock

 

[HCCForever]

The only James Bond to me. I also enjoyed him in "The Untouchables" and "Finding Forrester". There are other roles but those come to mind quickly. RIP Mister Bond, James Bond.

 

[dennismenace]

All the Bond movies, the Man Who Would be King (Turner classic grabbed this one), A Bridge too Far ........
he will be missed. RIP.

I remember my Mother always complained that my Father went to see the first James Bond movie during their honeymoon.

 

[HuskyHawk]

What a tremendous actor. He gave us so many memories from great roles. Bond of course, but so much more. The Wind and the Lion, Untouchables, A Bridge Too Far, Name of the Rose. Even Darby O’Gill and the Little People with the adorable Janet Munro (who sadly died very young).

RIP to one of the all time movie stars.

 

[Chin Diesel]

He even died like a boss

Said he died in his sleep in the Bahamas with family around him.
