Sir Sean Connery passed away last night at the age of 90; he reportedly died in his sleep, after having been “unwell for some time.” May he rest in peace.

I will always remember him best in the delightful role of that old Spanish (or Egyptian) peacock, Juan Sánchez Villa-Lobos Ramírez, in Highlander (1986), and Highlander II: The Quickening (1991). And in a tie for favorite, there’s also his role as Indiana’s father, Henry Jones, Sr, in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989).

(I don’t have any icons from the Highlander or Indiana Jones movies, so have one from the series.)

As a passing note as to how cluttered Nellie’s house was? Her daughter hired a cleaning crew. They’ve brought the back of a semi truck to cart things off, with extra dumpsters. They’ve been working almost non-stop (they took a break on Sunday afternoon) since Friday. They’ve hauled that thing away six times to the dump and back, and they’ve only made it into the living room. They get here at 7 AM every morning, and they don’t stop until 6 PM.

Charles Durning has passed away, at the age of 89. May he rest in peace. After checking IMDB, I mostly remember him from The Hudsucker Proxy and Dick Tracy.

If someone else nominates Ghostbusters and Dark Shadows (90’s version) then I won’t need to, and I can go for the original Fright Night. For the final nomination, it depends on which one of these people want to see end up on the list more: The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, Mr. Boogedy, The Librarian series of movies, Fred Saberhagen’s Dracula novels, Innocent Blood (1992), or The Mercury Men.
