    Oh, this is sad news. I always liked his character portrayals. Had a real memorable life to them on screen.

    Can only wish him luck in the future and whatever he does.

    Oddly enough I don't remember watching many of his movies other than Mario Brothers and Roger Rabbit and his small part in The Wall. His one movie regret apparently is Mario Brothers, which is sad as he was good it was the script and studio meddling that made it bad.

    Sad news, he's done some amazing films. His Smee to Dustin Hoffman's Hook was a classic.

    makes sense for him to retire

    Phil Collins has retired also and I've always confussed the two together

    Yeah, I was just going to say his bit in Brazil was great and one of those characters you love to hate.

    I loved him as Eddie Valiant and Mario when I was a kid. Truly sad news.
