Roger Ebert on Madsen’s breakout role in Reservoir Dogs:

> One of the discoveries in the movie is Madsen, who has done a lot of acting over the years (he had a good role in “The Natural“) but here emerges with the kind of really menacing screen presence only a few actors achieve; he can hold his own with the fearsome Tierney, and reminds me a little of a very mean Robert De Niro.

RIP MM

Can't forget his appearance at the beginning of the classic hacker movie, WarGames.

Reminds me of college days; we had a bit of tradition of changing Windows error sounds when the owner wasn’t looking.

Depending on which sound you chose it could be weeks or months until they hit it.

So maybe …

I rewatched WarGames recently. It holds up and is worth watching again. In particular with our current concerns over AI it feels ahead of its time.
somenameforme•7mo ago
The interesting thing is that I think WarGames was likely [heavily] inspired by Colossus: The Forbin Project [1], released in 1970! It too, holds up extremely well.

It's truly fascinating that someone can be in 300 plus movies and I, a film buff, can have only heard of maybe ten of them.

My two favorite characters of his were Budd and The Matadore.
ferociouskite56•7mo ago
He was funny in Vengeance Unlimited season 1 episode 15 "Stay tuned. It's gonna get stranger."
ViktorRay•7mo ago
Dude had a unique presence in the films he was in. Highly memorable characters.

Rest in peace.

“Wrap your lips around this.” Often gets quoted in our household when serving a drink. RIP MM.
timbo1642•7mo ago
He was a cool guy. He used to come to my workplace more than a decade ago when I worked there and was always pleasant. He would always talk to a few of us (mostly my boss) and joke around. Sad to see him go

hobbitstan•7mo ago
That sucks, I just watched him on the One Bad Movie podcast. He had a great story about Pacino:

Why is this flagged/dead? Perfectly normal comment, isn't it?
ekianjo•7mo ago
he was great in Reservoir Dogs and Kill Bill. shocking to see him go so soon
monster_truck•7mo ago
He was fantastic on film, no doubt about it.

But his work as Toni Cipriani in Grand Theft Auto 3 was what I always remembered him for. Bumped into him while I was at the beach on vacation forever ago. I was pretty lit and couldn't remember his real name so I said "ayyyyy Toni!" He picked up on it immediately and did the "do you know who I am? I'll beat the shit outta you for this!"

RIP

Dazzler5648•7mo ago
Last night, only hours before he died, I chose to watch Thelma and Louise. I was really struck by his character this time around, particularly in the diner and motel scenes. He absolutely nailed a male archetype I’m familiar with as a woman: the un-self-aware douche, and he managed it with Susan Sarandon staring at him. Chef's kiss and RIP you gorgeous thing.
masteruvpuppetz•7mo ago
Huh! sold his Hattori Hanzō sword in a pawn shop /s

Good actor

fithisux•7mo ago
I remember him for Species

RIP

bigtex•7mo ago
He did a short lived tv show about helping people out and then the stipulation was you had to be available when he needed you. It was a great concept but I think it lasted one season.
lofaszvanitt•7mo ago
And Hollywood couldn't write shit for him since ages... of course now everyone was best friends with him. The hypocrisy of this is stellar level bs.

This is what they do. Elevate someone into the stratosphere and then let him fall and splatter on the concrete or just wath him wither away. That's why David Lynch eloquently said that Hollywood is H E L L itself.

Yuck.
