Initially there was a story that his death was a hoax, but turns out it wasn't. He's actually dead.

His performance in Full Metal Jacket is without question one of my favorite pieces of cinema. I also enjoyed his general personality, and some works he did in the 00's and beyond. The man lived a full life, may he rest in peace.

His role and performance in Full Metal Jacket makes him one of the most quotable characters in cinema. "Hell I like you. You can come over and f@ck my sister." LMFAO. RIP R. Lee...

I was just watching the Nostalgia Critic review of Starship Troopers and I forgot he had a small role in The Frighteners since NC mentioned it. My favorite non LOTR Peter Jackson movie.

Just watched Fletch Lives on Cinemax this week for the first time since I saw it in theaters as a kid and had no idea he was in that.
