He was just undergoing a renaissance, too.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

In honor of the dead, you should post something that they played a good role in; Kill Bill doesn't count for Carradine.

German media say he was found hung with a curtain's rope.

He had like a 10 minute role in Kill Bill 2, which largely consisted of him and Uma having a heart to heart before she killed him.

 Too bad :(
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

He was in the first one a little bit, but he was in the second one quite a bit.  He probably had more screen time in Kill Bill 2 than Darth Vader did in Star Wars.

So I repeat:  Fuck off and die.

:(  He wasn't always wise in his choice of roles, but he always was a welcome sight in anything he was in.  RIP, dude.

he was quite fine in Kill Bill, regardless of his screen time. he was lauded by critics. why the hate?

Long Riders is excellent if you want a  good western.

His best work was in Kung Fu: The Legend Continues

Watch this short clip and tell me it doesn't top ANYTHING he did in Kill Bill, or whatever else..
