[quote=Austruck]Gene Wilder retired early-ish, too. He turned to writing and painting and just kept to himself a lot. He was remarried by that point (after Gilda died) and quite happy and content to live a quiet life in New England. Can't say I blame him.  :)[/quote]

[quote=Saunch]Hackman turned down a voice-over cameo for Scorsese. He’s pretty serious.[/quote]

[quote=Joel]Hackman did it, too. Which is kind of a shame, imo. Although, he does say that if a small crew came to intimately make a tiny picture he liked, he'd do it from home with them. Wonder if he still feels that way.[/quote]

[quote=Yoda]I was surprised I hadn't posted something like that myself when it first went up. I remember saying "yeah right" to a similar thread, for someone other than Viggo.

It's pretty rare for someone in that position to actually retire. When it actually happens it's usually someone quite old (Connery seems to have followed through, for example).[/quote]

[quote=Yoda]Eh, it's funny how wrong the whole thing was. And he called it as being probably bogus immediately, so a little gloat bump seems fine.[/quote]

[quote=Joel]He was following up 10 yrs after the announcement was made falsely. But you're right, he should have waited another 10. Surely there would be more films to list since his faux retirement.[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois][quote=Saunch]Stop bumping that Viggo Mortensen thread![/quote]

Yeah, I have no idea why he felt he had to do that.[/quote]

I'm lol'ing. Man, you're the greatest.[/quote]

[quote=ynwtf]I just woke up in the dark in a tub half filled with water. My towel was with me, half crumpled as a wet blanket and half still partly draped over the tub's lip. I was confused. The time felt around 2-3 AM given the darkness.

I couldn't believe that I had fallen asleep! I just wanted a quick shower so how did I end up in this position? It was cold. Were people worried? I had appointments to make. Surely someone is wondering where the hell I've been. I'm glad I'm alive but I guess the water wasn't too deep to drown. 

So weird! Then I woke up. Again. This time from on my couch, confused and wondering where I was. I had no idea the time or day. I thought it was Wednesday.

Now I'm texting you. 

All that had a serious TKITH Pear Dream vibe.[/quote]
