90 years old. Had a great run.

He was so iconic and in so many things, that it's truly hard to believe the last time we saw him act in a movie was in 2003.

No love for the True James Bond, huh?

Bummer.

I love you Sean.

The love went into the earlier thread, in another forum.

Not a fan of James Bond. Now as an older Robin Hood. "Robin and Marion" that makes me cry.

One ping Sixcilly.

A great actor, Connery made a lot of great movies. He could even make bad movies watchable and fun ...... like:

Outland
Highlander
Zardoz (my personal bad Connery movie favorite)

Take that back! Highlander was not a bad movie!!!!!!




My favorite "bad" movie he was in was The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

It's nowhere near as good as Waterworld was, but I still don't get all the online hate that movie gets, and it was Sean's last movie.

I've heard people say he hated it and it's the reason why he retired, but people say a lot of things.

Highlander is a great movie. One of my favourites.

Though I can admit that Zardoz wasn't a good one but I have seen it.

HIGHLANDER was a bad movie???

Blasphemer.




And then there are the films he was not actually in.

The Valhalla which was named Sha-Ka-Ree in honor of Sean Connery, who was unable to perform the role which was written for him, due to filming schedule conflicts with some Indiana Jones flick. His part went to Lawrence Luckinbill - famous becuase he married the only daughter of the Founder of Desilu Studios, which produced Star Trek and insisted it not be cancelled after Network pressure.
