Christopher Lee passes away

IMDB lists him having 281 film credits to his resume which is staggering.  He delighted in playing villains and we loved him for it.  RIP legendary actor.

And he sadly did not get the role of Gandalf that Tolkien promised him.

Favorite Christopher Lee story: the script for The Return of the King had Saruman screaming as he fell to his death after Grima stabbed him. Lee asked Peter Jackson, "Have you ever seen a man get stabbed in the back?" Jackson replied "no" and Lee said, "well, I have, and they don't scream." And the scream was gone. He was such a legendary badass.

Oh, and here's a really funny clip of him from an awful movie, The Return of Captain Invincible:
