RIP

I was quite sad when I heard the news. I'd like to remember him with my favorite moment from one his films, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. “Let my armies be the rocks and the trees and the birds in the sky”:

My favourite Sean Connery Bond film is the one that seems to get derided a lot among fan wisdom - Diamonds Are Forever. It's so delightfully bizarre and blackly humorous!
