Also loved his work in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
I assume that's from Invasion of the Body Snatchers? I've only seen the pose spoofed in other media, most memorable being Space Quest IV (think it's that one, been a few decades since playing the series now). Mean to watch it someday, maybe a good time in remeberance.
That is correct. And it's an excellent film, as is the original from 1956.
I dunno, Italian spiderman had a decent take
It's the best version of the movie really.
Unfortunately, he balanced that out by being in the terrible 1990s version of The Puppet Masters, but they can't all be good.
Puppet master secret service scene is awesome
It ain’t that bad! Ain’t that good either but still!
This scene shaved years off my life, haha. He absolutely nailed it.
I will forever call capers rat turds because if this man.
This movie kept me up nights as a kid.
My favorite role he played was Oddball in Kelly's Heroes
Always with the negative waves, Moriarty. Always with the negative waves.
Woof, woof, woof! That's my other dog imitation
That's such a positive wave, maybe they can't lose...
It's a motherbeautiful bridge! Think it'll be there, and it'll be there.
Absolutely loved him as Oddball. RIP Donald Sutherland.
Love him in that.
im going to watch mash tonight. i think he is one of the only reasons that movie hit big.
Suicide is painless.
If you want a laugh play that song at 1.25x speed.
I honestly can't say I like the movie. It's from that era of the 70s where they decided movies don't need a plot.
But he is really good in it.
Gould too. They were both hilarious and charismatic.
Absolutely. They were a terrific team-up and I doubt I would have enjoyed the movie at all if they hadn't been in it. Right up there in that era with Butch and Sundance in terms of a charismatic cinematic duo.
Also it was a Vietnam film that got past the censors by being explicitly about The Korean War.
Buffy. Puppet masters. MASH. Salute to you good sir. You entertained and made this life a bit more bearable.
The pyro in Backdraft...the guy even showed up in Beerfest. Helluva career. 141 films and 42 TV shows according to his Wiki. RIP.
Donald Sutherland was easily one of the best living actors. RIP to one of the GOATs 🫡
Definitely an anti-social type. Woof woof woof woof! That's my other dog imitation.
It flies under the radar, but I really liked him as the crooked warden in Lock Up.
Is this one actually dead or is this another one where the news has jumped the gun?
Just recently watched Virus. Great movie.
RIP
I don't know why but of all his movies (I'm 30s) I think of the Italian Job. Great actor though in everything he's done.
What’s your name soldier?
Number two, sir!
I have only seen him in the hunger games so I always think of him as that evil guy from the hunger games
