    None of us get out of this alive.

    It's a bummer, but he had a long life with a lot of success.

    Iconic as Bond, James Bond, but so great in virtually every role he played.

    Everybody has to go at some point, certainly got his money's worth.

    His post Bond career was so successful, I knew him extremely well as a big movie star and had no clue he even played Bond until I was 16. The man had such natural on screen charisma, he was able to play the same character in every movie... and they were still usually pretty damn good.

    Maybe my favorite movie line ever.

    Celebrated his birthday 3 months ago.

    This year keeps on getting worse, only positive it is going to end soon.

    RIP legend.

    Maybe we should all consider going this year as we will be in very good company? Who knows....there may be a big party with everyone that passed this year up there?

    I couldn’t begin to convey what Sean Connery has meant to me as an actor in film. He was better than everyone else. I always just watched him do his thing in awe of his huge talent. Rest In Peace, Sir.

    I probably said it here before, but I was named after Sean Connery. My dad was a massive fan.

    So if you get the chance Mr. Connery, say hello to my dad for me. RIP

    Man I have had enough of this year.

    I was just wondering the other day what this man was up to.

    We surrender, just make it stop!

    RIP to legend. Sean Connery became as much of a cultural icon himself as James Bond.

    I posted this on FB. It's fitting to remember him in a role playing an immortal Spaniard in the highlands of Scotland but doing it completely Scottish..
