David Warner dead at 80
 

I remember him from Tron, Time Bandits, and a handful of Star Trek movies. Brilliant actor.

I remember him mostly from Titanic but looking through his filmography, he was in a lot of good stuff over the years.

RIP

He was in one of my favorite movies The Ballad Of Cable Hogue. I enjoyed seeing him pop up in things. R.I.P.

Re: David Warner dead at 80
 

He played a great Jack the Ripper (opposite Malcolm McDowell's H.G. Wells) in Time After Time.

A great scene (where Wells confronts "Jack" for the first time in the present) ... and sadly what "Jack" says is even more true today than it was in 1979:

Amazing actor. My guess (my hope!) is he was one of those incredibly charming and kind people who ended up playing sinister villains really well. Although my hunch is a good portion of my generation remembers him best as the helpful scientist from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze. They never did follow up on where he went with that last canister, though, did they? :)

End of line.

I mostly remember him from playing Blair's father on The Facts of Life

Go into the four lights, Mr. Warner.

Re: David Warner dead at 80
 

Such a great actor. Honestly, I thought he was closer to his mid 80's. He looked a lot older than his age 30 years ago!

But, yeah, a fantastic actor. Not a household name, but someone a lot of people recognize. And his voice is pretty identifiable, too!

Re: David Warner dead at 80
 

Always enjoyed seeing him in stuff especially Star Trek. RIP.

Beheaded in The Omen, right?

Re: David Warner dead at 80
 

In From Beyond The Grave he's the guy who buys the painted over mirror from Peter Cushing's antique shop.

Re: David Warner dead at 80
 

He played Blair’s father? I thought Nicolas Coster played her father.

edit: ok I get the joke

Re: David Warner dead at 80
 

I've been a big David Warner for some years now so it's sad to hear of his passing. One of the earliest memories I have of him was his role as Sark in Tron, which I caught during its initial theatrical run. Oddly, in terms of his work in Star Trek, I always associate him with Chancellor Gorkon in ST VI even though he had a much meatier role as the interrogator/torturer in the 'Chain of Command' two-parter from TNG. He had a magnificent voice which he put to great use in quite a few Doctor Who audio dramas, and he always made them better.

RIP Mr. Warner.

Re: David Warner dead at 80
 

Oh, I've been dreading this day for a while. So many great roles and performances.

I had actually forgotten that he was the interrogator. I definitely remember him for Gorkon too. It's sad that both he and General Chang have left us now.

He was also Cratchit in one of my favorite adaptations of A Christmas Carol, with George C Scott.

Re: David Warner dead at 80
 

I loved his voice. He was great in Batman the animated series! But I did hate him in titanic, so he did a great job in it.

David Warner has passed away
 

I liked him in many roles especially Star Trek 6 The Undiscovered Country.

Wasn't he in the original Omen movie?

He had a unique voice.
