I like Jaws 3D - I don't care what anybody says. And Lou did the best he could with the material.

I remember liking Iron Eagle as a kid and An Officer and a Gentleman is still in my Top250 today. Wonderful actor R.I.P.

Loved everything I saw him in, but his Jeriba Shigan, the Drac that warred against a human when they're both stranded on a harsh planet, was for me one of his best roles ever and I think of that role every time I hear Gossett Jr.'s name. He played under a lot of makeup and a lot times you still tell that's a particular actor underneath, but not Gossett Jr. He totally makes me forget when I watch the film, so invested was he in that role. But again, everything he did was excellent. Godspeed, Louis.

After seeing his cameo in the musical version of The Color Purple, I saw this coming because he looked so frail and unhealthy in that film. Terrific and underrated actor. He was fantastic in An Officer and a Gentlmen (though. of the truth be told, I had a different choice for Best Supporting Actor that year) and as Fiddler in Roots. Sidney, Ossie, and he were industry pioneers. RIP.
