Blackwater 53393 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 The evil Marsden in Quigley too!! He'll be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT. QUINCANNON, SASS #32999 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I loved this guy! Alexander Dane/Professor Lazarus in Galaxy Quest was perhaps my favorite of his roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. R. Hugh Kidnme Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I too appreciated him as Mr. Marsden in Quigley Down Under. Also, as the Sheriff of Nottingham, in Robin Hood- Price of Thieves. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Elliot Marston was not Bill Hickock. But he was a hell of an actor. RIP sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chantry Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Alan Rickman was a very gifted actor, he was always fun to watch act in any role he played.

DocWard Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I was definitely down after my daughter texted me the news today. One of my favorites, and he will be missed. Remember getting Galaxy Quest as a rental one night, expecting the worst, because there was nothing else worth getting. Mrs. Doc and I laughed as we seldom have. Dr. Lazarus was one of our favorite characters too. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 I don't recall seeing him in a leading role in any movie, but he was, in my opinion, the leading "alzo vic" of the past few decades. He almost took the secondary roles he had (Hans, Lazarus, Marsden, etc) and turned them into a leading character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
