Gutted. Loved the man. One of the most photogenic faces in the business. His kind will never be forgotten.

Damn it! Now they should deffinitely release a DVD set of the original Ripley's Believe It Or Not! show.

[LoSTBoY]

I didn't recognise the name but got the face.

I remember him from Young Guns, Hawk the Slayer and City Slickers.

Leg-end! :(

Edit: Jesus! Look at all the **** he has been in:

there was a DVD I picked up in a supermarket once called "Cop in Bluejeans" for $1. It was made in Italy and is 100% PURE Cheese!
The first time I saw Mr. Palance was in a movie called Shane - 1953 (western) he played a great badguy in that one!

hawk the slayer!!! aw man, now i feel all christmassy :) plus that was the source of a memorable scene in spaced...

"i once punched someone for saying hawk the slayer was rubbish"

"good for you"

"yeah cheers...but thats not the point! what i should have said is "dad, you're right, but let's give krull a try..."

[HLS]

He was a great guy

[DjfunkmasterG]

I am surprised no one has mentioned BATMAN (1989), or TANGO & CASH (same year)

I just watched spaced recently and didn't pick that bit up, I thought he said 'frog the slayer' or something and was referring to a comic book.

Heh, and Krull; that was as bad as Hawk. :lol:

[_liam_]

hell yeah, he was cool in batman. he'd also played fidel castro and dracula (unless im mistaken) two EXTREMELY cool roles.

[deadpunk]

Remember when he was on that awards show and someone made mention of his age...then, he dropped and started doing one-handed push-ups? Hells Yeah!!!

Damn...all the real tough guys are dying off...:(
