Great actor. But I was always a huge fan of those mid 90's Nike Football commercials he did. Playing the crazy ex-ref Stanley.

BrewCrew, Louis, that made me smile. Great memories. Was awesome in Apocalypse Now and Hoosiers. Funny guy......Will be missed.

my favorite Dennis Hopper role was Blue Velvet. If you haven't seen it do so. It's David Lynch so it's messed up, but of all his movies, this one makes the most sense.

 

"Heineken? PABST. BLUE. RIBBON!!!"

Way to post a clean version Bikeage77, that's the same phrase I had in mind. All of my favorite Dennis Hopper quotes come from Blue Velvet.

One of my favorite Hopper scenes

Blue Velvet and Easy Rider come instantly to mind, but if you haven't seen his two episode search for the elusive giant squid with John Lurie in Fishing With John you haven't seen the brilliance of the "real life" Dennis Hopper.

 

What a celebrity threesome to go running round the afterlife with...Arnold, Blanche and Frank Booth.
