Kenneth Mars Dead at 75

He died of Pancreatic Cancer. Truly sad R.I.P.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won't last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you'll be able to project it on a 20' by 40' screen with perfect quality. I think it's the director's prerogative, not the studio's to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming... Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

What a funny man he was. Very sad news indeed.

I didn't know he had pancreatic cancer. When people get it though, there aint much hope for them.

That's how my gramps died, I think.

Sad about Kenneth Mars, actually I thought he'd be older than that.

Long live Inspector Kemp!

... And they had 'The Empire Strikes Back', the fifth of the four Star Wars films. He is fucking with us numerically, isn't he! "Children, count up to ten." "Four, five, six, one, two, three, ten". No, it goes, four, five, six, one, two, three… No, it goes: four, five, six. One... Two and three have not been made." "Two and three have not been made! What should they be?" "What should they be? We do not know. All we know is that there will be a big floppy character in it that goes, squawk squawk squawk... who needs a punch up the bracket!"

I'll always remember him as Max in "It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's Superman"
