RIP Lou Gossett Jr
One of my favorites has passed. Dude worked his ass off and was extraordinarily prolific. Too many movies and shows to even list... But for me, I'll never forget him from the Roots television mini-series, Officer and a Gentlemen, and maybe a little corny, but Diggstown. Cornier yet, his turn in Iron Eagle always stood out, and kinda made that piece of crap legit simply by his presence. See ya around big man...

87. He had a good run.
I never thought of him as being that old. But: Quote:

Diggstown was always a guilty pleasure movie that I enjoyed. RIP.

RIP
|
RIP... didn't he have a talk show later in his career also?
|
He was really good in The Choirboys and it's a movie everyone should see once.
|
He was great in a little known Western called El Diablo. It's available on YouTube for free.
RIP |
His last words were D-O-R
|
I know the name. I was looking through his filmography trying to find what I've seen him in. Apparently I only know him from Boardwalk Empire.
R.I.P. |

RIP.

He was a good one, RIP
What have you been doing all your life, listening to Mick Jagger music and bad mouthing your country? |

I know the world doesn't care for that flick as much as I do but there should be dozens of memes from that one... |

Diggstown was the shit! Iron Eagle was the corny one for me.
|
Don't care what anyone says. Jaws III was awesome!

That sucks. He delivered one of the greatest performances of all time in Officer and a Gentleman.
RIP :( |

When Gossett nailed Gere in the crotch with that kick (3:40), pretty much every guy in the crowd doubled over and groaned. LMAO |
I loved him in Iron Eagle. RIP, Chappy.
