Today's maintenance thread is in honor of Richard Kiel, who passed away recently. Best remembered as the menacing Bond baddie Jaws, he is the only villain to appear in more than one Bond film (The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker). In addition to this he appeared in multiple films that would later be skewered on MST3k (Eegah, the Human Duplicators and The Phantom Planet) and on tv, playing heavies and thugs. He would have been the Hulk instead of Lou Ferigno, but the contacts and green skin paint didn't agree with him. One of the most iconic character actors in the last half century and a Bond film legend, he will be missed.
He played a villain in one of my absolute favorite films, Silver Streak. This was the first movie that paired Richard Prior and Gene Wilder
Richard Kiel also voiced the fellow in Tangled what collects ceramic unicorns
