I have only one thing to say to whatever killed Donald Sutherland:

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 38 points 5 months ago

Also loved his work in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

I assume that's from Invasion of the Body Snatchers? I've only seen the pose spoofed in other media, most memorable being Space Quest IV (think it's that one, been a few decades since playing the series now). Mean to watch it someday, maybe a good time in remeberance.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

That is correct. And it's an excellent film, as is the original from 1956.

I dunno, Italian spiderman had a decent take

[–] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It's the best version of the movie really.

Unfortunately, he balanced that out by being in the terrible 1990s version of The Puppet Masters, but they can't all be good.

Puppet master secret service scene is awesome

[–] Beetschnapps@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

It ain’t that bad! Ain’t that good either but still!

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 10 points 5 months ago

This scene shaved years off my life, haha. He absolutely nailed it.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

This movie kept me up nights as a kid.

[–] BedInspector@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago
