Any other Dennis Hopper fans here? I really miss Dennis Hopper, he was in many movies I enjoyed growing up. He has a one-of-a-kind voice, very distinct, a real trademark. I can't really explain why, but I just really like watching him in movies, I've seldom seen many actors with such a presence on screen.

It was a popcorn summer movie, certainly not a classic. And the thread is about Dennis Hopper, not Speed.

Did any of you see him in The Keeper (2004)? He was at his craziest best.

Bowser is supposed to be a turtle-dragon hybrid, not a human. But I guess ignoring the fact that it's an adaptation of a video game, and just taking the movie by itself, it was a pretty good performance.

I'm kidding haha though I have a soft spot for that movie and he's pretty funny in that role.

Dennis Hopper proved once you're a star you're always a star if you come back in the right movie. Blue Velvet "BOOM"

recently watched Easy Rider with Hopper's commentary, & learned a lot more than i thought i would. He will be missed.
