RIP, he had one of the coolest voices in horror.
Sometimes I’m surprised at who has a ANN page.

A wonderful actor. His performance as an older Jake Sisko on Deep Space Nine was particularly moving. He will be missed.

That's sad, I really liked him The Rock. "The day we took hostages, we became mercenaries. And mercenaries get paid. I WANT MY F****** MONEY!"

Tony was... interesting.
I met him several times in 1990s at Star Trek conventions, one time he was so drunk, he asked for help find his room after his body guard had already passed out. I sent him to huge pirate party.
He was C-rate actor. Never understood why he would carry a loaded firearm to a star trek convention, or pay armed body guards. It was a trek con.
RIP, Tony. You were one strangest people I ever met.

Yeah so am I, it's always confused me on some, cause I genuinely didn't know they had been in an anime, like Wil Wheaton (of Star Trek, and The Big Bang Theory fame)

@AJ (LordNikon) Tony played one of the greatest horror villains in cinema. He was not bloody C rate so show respect

Dude scared the shit out of me as Candyman and I watch that for the first time at age 25! C!?! Tony was at least an A-actor who didn't get roles that pushed him. May he RIP.

Heard over the weekend, but Rest in Peace. He starred in my favorite horror movie, the 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead. I love all of his horror and sci-fi roles.

Because believe it or not fan interactions can sometimes be dangerous. I also like the random burying over his status

Calling Tony Todd a c-rank actor is...well, let's just say that's an extreme minority viewpoint. In fact, I think it's just you. Obviously there's all his great work in horror films, but I'll always remember him as the adult Jake Sisco, spending his entire life obsessively trying to save his time-displaced father in what I myself consider the single finest hour of Star Trek.
RIP, Mr. Todd. Thank you for all the memories.
