    As I said on another board, I'm glad he's finally dead. He's become a self-parody and his acting chops have long since left him.

    He was an incredible actor in his time, though.

    Also, he was something like $20 million in debt.

    He wasn't bad in that, but the fact that he kicked Frank Oz out when he was acting and made De Niro direct left a sour taste in my mouth.

    You can't deny that in recent years he's become one of those bizarro-celebs like Michael Jackson or Liz Taylor.

    Dude he's been bizarro for a long time. When I said one of the greatest I meant on screen only. Don't know, don't care what eccentricities they have.
