I thought he was an interesting actor and enjoyed his work. RIP Henry.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-16-2009 07:52 PM                     Thanks Henry for all the laughs...

HD Net Movies recently played The 'Burbs, starring the likes of Tom Hanks, Carrie Fisher and Bruce Dern. Henry Gibson was the baddie in that one. Still, when it comes to Henry Gibson I always think of him in The Blues Brothers and Laugh-In.  |  IP: Logged Damien Taylor Master Film Handler Posts: 493 From: Perth, Western Australia Registered: Apr 2007 posted 09-17-2009 09:08 AM                     Henry was one of those actors that seemed to have been quite old for as long as I can remember. Not really eulogy material that. My favourite role of his, was the inept neo-Nazi leader in BB. Never knew he was the voice of Wilbur in the Charlotte's Web animated movie!
