+Edouard Subscriber² Posted September 9, 2024 Subscriber² Share Posted September 9, 2024 That is sad news indeed. I have nothing but positive memories of his work. Very few actors are recognisable just by hearing their voice. May he rest in peace. +primortal and macoman 1 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1446069-james-earl-jones-dies-at-93/#findComment-598930232 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocM Posted September 9, 2024 Share Posted September 9, 2024 They don't come any better, and as others have stated, his voice was recognizable all around the planet. His first role was as a bombardier in Stanley Kubrick's Doctor Strangekove (1964).

BoondockSaint Posted September 10, 2024 Share Posted September 10, 2024 Extremely sad news, the man was a legend. While he will always be remembered as the voice of Darth Vader, his role as Thulsa Doom in Conan will always be my favourite. macoman, +primortal, +Raze and 1 other 3 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1446069-james-earl-jones-dies-at-93/#findComment-598930397 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuffinMullet09 Posted September 13, 2024 Share Posted September 13, 2024 Som, Why would you put a photo of a white dude as James Earl Jones? Entirely disrespectful. And do not forget the racial overtones. Man, James Earl Jones - what a legend. Only know him a few movies, but my favourites are from the Lion King (the disney cartoon version) and Field of Dreams with Kevin Costner. souper82 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1446069-james-earl-jones-dies-at-93/#findComment-598931181 Share on other sites More sharing options...
