Excellent guest and good to see that there will be more UK 1st time guests next time.

I've always got Sonny Landham mixed up with Bill Duke, who also starred in Predator.

YES!!!!!!!!

AT LAST a NEW PREDATOR GUEST!!!!!!!!


he was also in The Warriors. and Southern Comfort...and started out in blue movies!!!:YAHOO:

Gimme, gimme, gimme more, more, more Predator guests!! Even Carl Weathers with him would be great esp in a talk.

Would be great to get James Remar too, the other villain from 48HRS and who was also in The Warriors (as Ajax) with Sonny.

Simply awesome, no other way to describe it!!!
"He's a fountain of misplaced rage. Name your cliche; Mother held him too much or not enough, last picked at kickball, late night sneaky uncle, whatever. Now he's so angry that moments of levity actually cause him pain; give him headaches. Happiness, for that gentleman, hurts"

"What if I told you insane was working fifty hours a week in some office for fifty years at the end of which they tell you to **** off; ending up in some retirement village hoping to die before suffering the indignity of trying to make it to the toilet on time? Wouldn’t you consider that to be insane?"

Englishman: I say, Jeremy, isn't that Reginald B. Stifworth, the young upstart chap who's been touting the merits of a united European commonwealth?
Jeremy: Why yes, I daresay it is.
Englishman: Oh, let's get him.
[They drive up.]
Englishman: Oh Reginald... I disagree.
[drives off]

MikeDonovan - Yes, despite that being the obvious difference between Sonny Landham and Bill Duke, when I couldn't think of their names I got their faces mixed up. I am not a racist.

Really excited by this announcement and for me is the best one yet as I'm a massive Predator fan. Beats Christopher Lloyd, John Hurt and Bruce Campbell any day!

I won't comment on his political views, but I do love the fact that the insurance company hired a bodyguard during Predator - not because they were worried for his safety, but because they were worried for the safety of the rest of the cast! We're talking about a cast with Arnie and Jesse "I ain't got time to bleed" Ventura....

Also I never would have figured he was 46 when Predator was filmed....
