    It´s been terrible and shocking news. He will always be in our hearts as he was Karl, the "biggest" part of "Big Fish".

    He was a Record Guinness actor. He still is.
    RIP

    That's sad. I really loved that man. He was perfect and touching in Burton's Big Fish, he was also an interesting actor I think...

    I was so shocked when I saw the news about his death. He was way too young, and was just breakingout as an actor.

  15. Really sad, a lot of giants have very painful and short lives. I really liked him in Bubble Boy as well. I haven't been so amused since Spring Break and the great wet boxer contest!

    I'm so sorry for bringing this up while everyone's mourning McGrory. =( but... is the forum online? I just keep getting a message saying "Could not connect to database".

    Once again, I'm really sorry about McGrory's death, and my tactless intrusion.

    Gosh, who's next? Too many great people have died this year; Dr. Hunter S. Thompson, Mitch Hedberg, Johnny Carson, James Doohan. Mr. McGrory will certainly be missed just as much. I wonder if they'll still release that biopic?

    I wish I had a forum to talk about this in.

    Matt was a great guy. Many know him from his movies but I knew him as friend. Since he moved to the west coast we only saw each other once in a blue moon but he was a great person to talk with. We sat for many hours, on th job, talking and having some laughs. Those who were lucky enough to know him, know just how extraordinary he really was. We'll miss you Matty.

    Matty, I'm having a Jack and Coke for you--remember when we finished that bottle of Seagram's 7, but only used half a can of ginger ale?? I hope you are running free and smiling down on all of us! I love you and I miss you, you ARE the greatest, and always will be. Lots of love to you, Big S

    I remember this guy when I worked with his Sister and Parents at their restaurant in the late 80s While at West Chester Univ. He was the coat checker, and probably one of the sweetest people I ever met, and sharp as a tack. Mark

      Like all good curse theories, natural death, accidents and sheer bad luck have been compressed into a single sinister hypothesis and with all this doom and gloom, there is only one piece of good news. Visitors to the museum in the Italian town of Bolzano specially constructed for the Iceman, where he is on display in a hi-tech refrigerated casket chilled to a glacial -6C, are expecting an increase in curious visitors.
