PF was in at least 4 of my all time favorite movies (Wings of Desire, Far Away So Close!, The Princess Bride, and It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World) and I loved Collumbo. He left the word a better place than it was when he got here, and that's what a human is supposed to do, in whatever way they can.

Post by: SignOfZeta on June 24, 2011, 10:38:06 AM: Oh shit, I forgot about Vibes. I love that movie. You're right, he's great in that.

Post by: Tatsujin on June 24, 2011, 03:04:40 PM: Very sad indeed. Columbo was one of the best tv-show "of" ever. Also loved him in almost any movies he appeared.

R.I.P. Peter :(

Yeah and Vibes was great!!

Push the "Turbo" Button, Max!!!

Post by: Mathius on June 24, 2011, 05:41:07 PM: Loved him too guys. Columbo and The Princess Bride were always favorites of mine. The Princess Bride was in my regular rotation of VHS tapes that I watched while on summer vacation bitd. I can't choose which had the thickest summer time nostalgia, Princess Bride or The Last Starfighter. Both, by sheer coincidence, have video games in their stories.

So are you a Win Wenders fan or a Nick Cave fan?

I wonder if he's figuring out what killed him :oops:

Post by: soop on June 26, 2011, 10:55:32 PM: A great guy. Worth reading his autobiography btw.

FWIW, here's a tribute to the great man I made a while back. Unfortunately, they kind of dicked about with adverts so it doesn't look as neat as it once did, but it's still amusing to me:

*edit* ~~huh, looks like it's not working properly. And I can't remember how you were supposed to load different things.~~ It looks like it just changes every once in a while.
