Just heard the news that former pro wrestler 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper has died at 61.
I had watched some of his bouts in the mid-1980's when WWE was in its glory, but the most memorable part was his role in John Carpenter's 1988 film 'They Live', a sci-fi film that takes a stab at the seemingly non-stop effects of subliminal advertising and mass consumerism.
However, two of the best scenes IMHO were these:
First, the fight scene between Piper and co-star Keith David, very hilarious!
The second one was where he goes into the bank, sees it full of aliens, and then says probably one of the best lines ever :-)
He will definitely be missed.
