There are certain people that need to live forever. He was one.
Agree he would be on that list with the likes of Betty White. Another on that list whose still here is Mel Brooks.
Some of his best work with Malcolm McDowell...

I finally watched The Sandlot for the first time as an adult last week because this board claims it’s the greatest sports movie of all time.
As I remembered, it is not remotely a “sports movie” at all (only for about 90 seconds) but it is still a great movie and I forgot he was in it until he appeared.
Even though I’m a massive sci fi/Star Wars nerd his voice in Field of Dreams is etched in my brain as much as Vader.

About 15 years ago, I was waiting in line at Washington National airport to check my bag. The man in front of me started talking to the counter agent. I couldn’t see the man’s face, but immediately knew it was James Earl Jones. As he turned and walked past me, his face confirmed what I already knew. There’s not too many people who I can identify based solely on their voice, but James Earl Jones is one of them. RIP Mr. Jones.
