whateverpedia Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Acclaimed Swedish actor Max von Sydow has passed away aged 90. Probably his most famous role was portraying Father Merrin in The Exorcist. Below is a partial list of some of the other films he's appeared in: The Seventh Seal Three Days of The Condor The Exorcist II: The Heretic Flash Gordon Conan The Barbarian Never Say Never Again Dune Hannah And Her Sisters Ghostbusters 2 Awakenings Minority Report Rush Hour 3 Shutter Island Star Wars: The Force Awakens. (Full list here) He also had cameo roles in TV shows such as The Tudors and Game Of Thrones. RIP Max. Claude Whitacre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanfear63 Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I was expecting to see "The Black Hole" as one of his acting credits but I realised it was Maximilian Schell who took the part. Similar looking actors who's name starts with Max and definitely no Mandela. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Whitacre Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Max Von Sydow is dead. And the chief suspect is Dan Riffle. It had to be said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Von Sydow had a elaborate security system in his home with lot's of low lying laser light beams criss crossing his rooms. Not a problem for Dan Riffle of course who just walked under all of them and blew a tiny poisoned dart into Von Sydow's neck. I think there is merit to your theory.

I don't know if he's the chief suspect, however he has to be on the short list. Claude Whitacre and Lanfear63 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Balestra Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 All I know is, when I twistin' my neck all stoopid in yogah, I could sure use expert help from a guy like von Sydow. "Just because it hurts like crazy doesn't mean you're simultaneously maxing out on possession and missing out on karmic grace, my darling. All I ask is that you go easy on the cussing; I may have appeared in many X rated movies, but I simply abhor blasphemy in a lady. Plus, please desist from biting my toes, I am only trying to help..."

He was picked out from a police lineup. It took quite a while for the police to find enough Smurfs to participate. whateverpedia and Claude Whitacre 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A tad off subject, but every time I read a post of yours, I see this... The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the Axe, for the Axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood he was one of them. - Turkish proverb. I'm not sure I've ever read a more sobering or profound thing in my life. It grabs me at my core. whateverpedia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
