    93 is a long life. Good for him. I hope he was at peace.

    Field of Dreams? Of all the things he’s done they went with “Field of Dreams?”

    I would have gone Mufasa first in a heartbeat.

    Have a good one James, RIP. Impressive actor and certainly his voice could be soothing but often terrifying.

    Ah man, rest in peace.

    I remember playing one of the command & conquer games and he was playing a general in that.

    Westwood always made great cutscenes with great actors.
