RIP

Unfortunately I think the next 5-10 years are gonna be an absolute GOAT actor bloodbath as the 80's greats move on. Schwarzeneggar dying is gonna hit me like the Kennedy assassination...there is just such a gulf between those guys in their prime and what the new actors are doing now.

RIP Ray

RIP.

 

[Azzurri]

Man, I loved Ray Liotta.

We Italians lost a good one.

 

[Robot Carnival]

RIP. Goodfellas is one of the all time great movies and Liotta was a huge reason why it's so enjoyable. dude also had so many other great performance. Heart Breakers, Smoking Aces, Hannibal, just off the top of my head. he might not be the leading man in these movies but his performance has always been memorable. at least he passed in his sleep and presumably didn't suffer.

 

[bitbydeath]

RIP Ray.
Must be time for a rewatch of Escape from Absolom, low-key one of his best movies.

Man, I loved Ray Liotta.

Just found out today, when I looked him up on Wiki to see his cause of death, that he's mostly Scottish. No doubt he belongs to you guys, though (Italians).

This one sucks

 

[strange headache]

RIP Ray, sad to see another good one go.

 

[John Marston]

Jesus Christ what the hell.

One of those instances where I log on GAF and get slapped in the face.

 

[Dusktildawn48]

It was a small part, but he'll always be Shoeless Joe Jackson to me.

 

[SirTerry-T]

Everyone needs to watch "Something Wild" too, Liotta wrote the rulebook on psychotic ex-boyfriends with that one. Great talent. Fantastic speaking voice, full of character.

 

[MastaKiiLA]

Seriously? Dude didn't do anything great since Goodfellas, IMO, but that was such an epic performance. Still...WTF? Weird death.

Might want to sit down for this: Robert DeNiro is more Irish than Italian.

Anyways, RIP. I always thought he was great in any role he showed up in even though he could never seem to escape from his role in Goodfellas.

Damn.

RIP my man.

 

[Labolas]

Man, this guy had such a presence on screen. Lost him too soon.

 

[-BLITZ-]

No WAY! Only 67.

 

[Karmic Raze]

I always enjoyed his work. He is a true legend of cinema, and he will be sorely missed. R.I.P. Ray Liotta. Godspeed, my friend.

 

[The Fartist]

Right, that's why he couldn't be "made" in Goodfellas, everyone knows that.

 

[Portugeezer]

Iconic. RIP.

 

[Airbus Jr]

Rip my condolence

Sorry to break it to you but Ray Liotta is Scottish...

Took the words out of my mouth. Just fucking saw this news. I'm legit shocked.

 

[PuppetMaster]

Oh shift RIP!

 

[MastaKiiLA]

Have you done anything great since Goodfellas?

Ironically, yes. I was also drunk when I made that post, so it definitely was worded poorly. I was legit shocked that he died, so please forgive my irreverence.

Gotcha. Thanks for the followup, MastaKiiLA

 

[nkarafo]

Dying in your sleep, unexpectedly, not being hospitalised or anything, is the best way to go i guess.

But 67 is too soon, he should have at least one more good decade.

 

[Lord Panda]

WTF.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Damn, he will be missed

 

[SantaC]

The escape from absolom is my favorite

 

[ResurrectedContrarian]

Goodfellas is such an amazing, uncompromising film. I can't imagine it being produced today.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

Good Fellas is my favorite Ray Liotta film

 

[German Hops]

I really don't care about 99% of celebrity deaths, but this one hurts.
