Probably most known as Severus Snape in Harry Potter, I liked him as the bad guy in Robin Hood: Price of Thieves, Quigly Down Under, and Die Hard.

Gah, what a loss. I've always appreciated his work. This feels like a part of my youth has died. I've been watching him on screen for so long after all.

My favorite clip from Quigley Down Under.

His obit on bbc didn't mention Quigley. Probably ashamed of that one.

Cancer is the real life Avada Kedavra.

RIP Alan Rickman.

Let's not forget that Grabthar's Hammer helped to forge his great success.

My wife and I quote that to one another fairly routinely.... 'cause it'll urt more, you twit!"  :D

Is it bad that I kinda wish he had passed away Christmas eve? How epic would have that been?

That's horrible macville!

 

yet... I agree fully....

[TMF]

I remember hearing that Die Hard was his first movie role. Man did he kill it in that movie. Die Hard remains the best 80s action movie ever made, plus it doubles as a Christmas movie.

[hipower]

And lest we forget...his portrayal of the little robot in A Hitchers Guide to the Galaxy was terrific.

 

All the epic roles...Die Hard, Quigley, Harry Potter, Robin Hood...actually just about everything he acted in, he almost stole every scene.

 

I would have to say my favorite of his many roles would have to be as the Sherriff in Robin Hood, and as the rancher in Quigley Down Under. I found myself rooting for him in robin Hood, and if it hadn't been for Selleck, I'd have wanted the Rickman character to win.

 

Alan Rickman was a tremendous actor, capable of everything from Shakespeare to the dry comedic wit.

 

Yes, one of may favorite actors as well.

 

He will be missed by many people.

 

Rest In Peace, Sir.

And Metatron in Dogma.

 

His role as the ghost lover in Truly, Madly, Deeply is perhaps my favorite of all, though many here would call it a "chick flick".

Don't forget Galaxy Quest - he did a great job on that as well.

Have you been smacked upside the head by Grabthar's Hammer?

[Metalhead]

Don't forget Galaxy Quest - he did a great job on that as well.

 

VERY underrated movie. It's one of my favorites.

[R1100R]

Loved him in Robin Hood . May he rest in peace.

[btq96r]

Great actor who could pull off the entire spectrum.  He'll be missed.  Condolences to his family and friends.

 

So, Bowie, Rickman...who's going to be #3?

 

 

And Metatron in Dogma.

 

He was awesome in that.

He was awesome in that.

Rickman was #3. Lemmy was #1.

[94user]

I really hate to hear this. Mr. Rickman may be my favorite hollywood villan ever. Yippe-kay-ay mo********** !

[bersaguy]

I will sure miss him. He was my favorite bad guy / villains of all times. RIP Alan

Best STAR TREK movie of all time!!! My wife absolutely hates it, and Tremors as well. I'd say the woman has no taste but...

[kieefer]

"Perfume" was also a good one that he was in.
If you like sex, murder and history you'll like this film.

He will be missed.

Add Dan Haggerty to the list. Grizzly Adams passed away this morning at 74 years old. This has been a bad few weeks for famous people. :(
