Has this guy done anything memorable or significant? I heard of him only recently and it looks like he's mostly done supporting roles in b-movies, but now that he's been in SW and GoT he's treated as some kind of great legendary actor. Am I missing something or is he just a meme?

You're definitely missing something

That is a terrible analogy.

Sydow's best work was done long before "our time".

Well I mean to say about the oldest guy in the bunch who's going to live until almost 100s but then he'll die before that.

>>69100566

I could berate you for being an absolute philistine but I'll just tell you that he's mostly reknown for being one of Bergmans go-to actors.

Why waste him on a 5 minute star wars cameo? He should've replaced the fish lady's character

There are people on /tv/ right now who haven't seen The Seventh Seal, or any Bergman film

Calm down and take a breather, little guy.

The difference is that Lee still does good work. Sydow doesn't.

The Seventh Seal?
>>
>>69100566
Starred in The Exorcist and The Seventh Seal.

I wouldn't say he's considered 'legendary' but when actors reach a certain age and they're still acting in quality entertainment, people will express their respect more.

Its like Michael Cain. Not that great of an actor but because Nolan resurrected his career, people act like he's some classic actor whenever he's in a new movie.
>>
>>69101421
He sounded drunk as fuck in that, you could really tell he did not give a fuck when he was hired.
>>
I liked his character in Inside Man.
>>
>>69100566
jesus fucking christ go back to the playpen you fucking baby
>>
I watched Through a Glass Darkly for the first time the other night and liked it even more than Seventh Seal.

Thank you based Hulu for this golden age.
>>
>>69101421
I remember this being one of the selling points, and everyone hyping up the voice acting.

Meanwhile, Oblivion has Sean Bean and Patrick Stewart
>>
>>69104704
Plus, Michael Caine was in Blame It On Rio, which would undo anything good he'd ever done.

And voice acting for both sucks in context even with great actors.

Lee is dead. He doesn't do anything.
