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.

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.

I'm a huge fam of Tim Burton and Big Fish was a great fiim.McGrory was great as Karl the Giant and I'm dissapointed that he passed away. Here's to you big guy.

P.S. Happy birthday, Tim! Can't wait for Corpse Bride. I look foward to your approching films and i wish you luck on your future projects!

Addio Karl, magari anche tu ti sei trasformato in un pesce alla fine, spero che ci incontreremo di nuovo in quel fiume.

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.

I can't believe it... Karl was my favourite character in 'Big Fish', and McGrory was a very talented actor... It's so sad his life has been cut short... RIP

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 saw Matt in Alma, Arkansas in a Cracker Barrel Store. He was so nice and he talked to my daughter who was such a fan. He will truly be missed.

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.
