MoS Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 This has absolutly nothing to do with pro-wrestling, but I am part of the Potter generation. I read the first one as a wide-eyed 8 year old, and I have been completely, utterly hooked ever since. As such, his death comes as a huge shock and brings immense sadness to me; I grew up with him and Harry Potter; they are like Star Wars for me. Not to mention, his turn as Hans Gruber in Die Hard, and in so many other films like Robin Hood and Sense and Sensibility makes him an all-time great actor. He might just be the greatest actor to have never received an Oscar nomination.If I had to make a wrestling analogy, I guess he would be William Regal. Someone who never had the opportunity to be a huge star or a great box office draw, but who would churn out ridiculously amazing performances every time he was on stage or in front of the camera. RIP. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
