he was a legend, he would have been the thing of super legend if he hadnt turned down the role of Gandalf in LOTR.

I didn't know this but now wondering how he would of been in that role considering McKellen nailed it. I knew he was pretty old so it's not unexpected but still sucks. I think I read he had dementia which is horrible. RIP

Highlander 2: The Quickening or The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen?

Which is the worse Sean Connery film, I vote League.

Fuck its Highlander 2, fucking trashed the lore of the original, atleast it was retconned, unfortunately the series kept getting worse from there.

Connery was an ardent supporter of Scotland’s independence and had the words “Scotland Forever” tattooed on his arm while serving in the Royal Navy. When he was knighted at the age of 69 by Britain’s Queen Elizabeth in 2000 at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh, he wore full Scottish dress including the green-and-black plaid kilt of his mother’s MacLeod clan.

he was a real macleod? but they had him cosplaying an egyptian conquistador in the movie?

Man, at least he had a freaking LONG life. He didnt work much at all last > 10 years right? So I'm sure he had plenty of privacy and time for his family.

his last movie was league of extraordinary gentleman 16 years ago

i think he was unhappy with the roles he was getting offered and maybe was kicking himself for passing up on Gandalf. still, his body of work was iconic already, so retiring at that point in his 70s was a good decision. when Jack Nicholson passes on, it will be almost the same way.
