James Earl Jones RIP

[great_chandel]

One of the greatest voices ever for an actor. Can you seriously imagine any other voice for Darth Vader? James had a booming and distinctive voice. Much like a Sam Elliott, James Stewart, etc. his voice could never be mistaken! A darn good actor in his own right, James Earl Jones was a Hollywood legend. While he had many great roles, i loved him in "Coming to America" with Eddie Murphy. Always a very gracious through the mail signer, I received his autograph in the mail many years ago. James was 93.

RIP to him. They don't make them like him anymore. 93 was good run though.

such a huge part of all of our childhoods. he actually lived not too far from me. years ago some friends actually carpeted his house. by all accounts he was a very kind and gracious man. RIP

So the The Empire State Bldg showed projections of Darth Vader all night as a tribute the Empire’s Greatest Warrior.
