Guy had a role in every age and genre. Star wars, the Tom Clancy stuff, Field of Dreams, Sandlot, Lion King. Quite a run.

Its funny -- I didn't initially think about Sandlot or Lion King, but yeah.

And you left out Coming to America. Not the best movie, but his role / portrayal was iconic.

Like you state, figural roles across the decades.

He could take something as simple as "This is CNN" and make it iconic.

Here's a couple of clips from his appearance on The Big Bang Theory:

I first saw him in Bingo Long Travelling All-Stars, then Field of Dreams and don't forget Coming to America as King Jaffe Joffer.

Pryor, Billy Dee, and the great Otis Day were part of the Bingo Long cast. Good pull.

The best, just the best voice for a long time. Darth Vader at the top for me voice wise. Filed of Dreams and Hunt for Red October my acting favorites. A great presence. A great man.

Film debut in Kubrick’s Dr Strangelove one of the best anti war films of the 60’s.

This is pretty funny, highlighting his voice.
