Default Roy Scheider dies @75

That's too bad, he was one of my favorite actors. Who will kill the shark for us now?

Ol' Roy is up there with Robert Shaw right now. Chumming probably. Shaw's yelling: "Hooper! Where the hell are ya?"

Hard to believe Shaw's been gone for about 30 years now. Another fine actor.

Damn, he was a bloody good actor, not only in Jaws but in Seaquest as well.

RIP Roy

2010 is another movie of his that I rather enjoyed watching.

Isn't his last name is Scheider, and not Schneider?

Yeah, that was not a bad movie. I liked it as a kid. It spurned off Airwolf. I liked Roy and especially in Jaws. "We're gonna need a bigger boat" is one of my all time favorite lines from the movies. RIP Roy. I grew up watching you and enjoying every minute of it.

That sucks. I read about his demise last night. He will always be Capt. Nathan Bridger to me. That was one of my favorite shows.

Another great one passes away.

I loved that line he delivered in JAWS. "Your going to need a bigger boat."

He's not really dead; it's just great acting.

Oh, and Nik, old buddy? It's Scheider. No 'n'.
