@RoninWC I liked to watch a bit of boxing when I was younger. More the Olympic and light/welter weight stuff. Heavyweight boxing just seemed more like WWF to me.
The fight that I most remember of Whitaker was when he lost against De la Hoya in the mid 90s.

Hmmmmm, trying to decide if I'm triggered by this post or not and @raznomore would probably put it far more eloquently than I could but some of the all time great boxers that I've followed have been heavyweights. Jeffries, Dempsey, Marciano, Louis, Liston, Ali, Foreman, Norton, Tyson, Lewis, Holyfield, Klitchko. I'm even developing quite the admiration for Fury. I do get that they throw far less than the lighter divisions but they're more potent in what they do if that makes sense ?
In saying that highlights of Robinson, Duran, Hagler, De la Hoya, Mayweather, Pacquiao etc are sensational as well.

Bit of a footnote to most but two Bonds is still pretty cool.

Showing my age but I remember him as Commander Crane on Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. We thought the Seaview was about the coolest thing on TV.
Hadn’t twigged he was also Felix.

There was approximately 50,000 different actors who played Felix Leiter and not one of them looked anything like the previous guy

Rutger Hauer
The Hitcher was a bloody scary movie. Dude was a great villain. Big points for Blind Fury too!

I remember seeing that in the theatre when it was released - loved it. I'm sure a few people didn't eat fries/chips after that movie.
There were some people sitting in front of us who were so scared they ended up walking out.
Other older movies of his I enjoyed were Ladyhawke and Flesh & Blood.
Edit: Forgot about Escape from Sobibor. Fantastic movie.

@MN5 Nick Nolte is a great actor. Do you actually watch movies?
I think he thinks they look alike, I don’t get it because Busey has crazy eyes and Nolte who is probably insane too hides his .
Busey was a decent actor till he got a brain injury , Big Wednesday is a favourite of mine . -

Busey was a decent actor till he got a brain injury , Big Wednesday is a favourite of mine .They are way more alike than the two 80's Bills ( Paxton and Pullman ) who people seemed to get confused.
