Captain Marko Ramius wanted for questioning

(the question is: do the Rocky Horror Picture Show and Hunt for Red October take place in the same universe?)

RHPS, Clue, Legend, Annie… the man shaped my childhood. King Chicken on Duckman is still one of my favorites. And Auntie Whispers in Over the Garden Wall? Tim Curry made being evil look so fun.

But his rendition of Losing my Mind by Sondheim is what strikes me the most. I heard this for the first time shortly after moving to NYC, before I had any kind of stability and when I was feeling really alone. The same big voice, and wild delivery that made me smile and laugh so many times, but weaponized to bring me straight to tears.

He’ll be missed. :purple_heart:

I think about him pretty much every morning. I’m convinced a clown lives in my shower drain. Last week I told my wife about it. ā€œOh, you don’t know about the clown?ā€ She hasn’t spoken to me since. Apparently she saw ā€œItā€ too young.

I really think I could blurt out every line of his from rhps. I see a few rhps nights in my very near future.

Tim Curry was a big part of my childhood, he was in so many brilliant films.

ā€˜Get outta here, you nosey little pervert, or I’m gonna slap you silly!’

Yeah, real fucking bummer those past two days. Gone in an instant two top class legends. May their contribution to their craft never be forgotten.

I couldn’t find a picture with Tim sadly but I used to always play a specific drinking game while watching Clue, one of my favorite movies from childhood well into adulthood and my introduction to Tim’s awesomeness.

Basically everyone draws a mustache and sticks it on the screen. When yours lines up, you drink.

What a crap photo, I didn’t even get a still with the mustache on anyone. I must have been having a damn good time by then.

RIP.
