Bibliogryphon 9,085 Posted September 6, 2013 I for one wish Jack a long and happy retirement as long as he doesn't make any more bloody films. He is one actor whose presence is guarenteed to spark my disinterest in a film. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garn2 34 Posted September 8, 2013 Speculation that he has recently suffered both a stroke and a heart attack. The former, if true, would tie in with the memory loss reports. One to watch... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,211 Posted September 9, 2013 I think Jack will get a DL place next year, and will probably turn up in the DDP Drop 40 as well. Weird we're getting to the point now that the New Hollywood stars are starting to drop dead of old age-related illnesses, when we still have Fontaine, De Havilland and a bunch of other Golden Era of The Screen stars pottering about.

Dr. Zorders 1,270 Posted September 9, 2013 Jack Nicholson expresses desire to be eaten by vultures (post mortem, obviously ) Wow, has he been playing the first "Metal Gear Solid" or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He isn't that ill, surely. Worst I've heard is stroke/heart attack; both survivable and he's only in his seventies; and not exactly frail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magere Hein 1,398 Posted September 28, 2013 A lot of people are unable to remember things. Why might that be? Drink is involved. I've been told alcohol affects memory, although I don't remember how. regards, Hein 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I looked at this list and thought "Why do I know the name Frank Welker?" and so went off to do the obligatory wiki search where I discovered that he provided the voice of Freddie for Scooby Doo but I recognised the name because he was Abu in Aladdin. One of the better Disney "Classics". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The man has done a voice acting role on nearly every American animated movie/show. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 19,956 Posted June 1, 2019 Whenever I see a post on Clint Eastwood's thread, I think, what about Jack Nicholson? So I did a search.
