Movie legend Christopher Lee turned 87 today! 

He's always been one of my top 5 favorite actors of all time.

Happy birthday, Mr Lee!

Question: when is the Queen going to get off H R B [Her Royal Bum] and make you a sir?  Question

No, come to think of it, she should make you a Lord ~ that would be better.  Smile

I read his book Tall Dark & Gruesome on a flight once, and I hadn't read the first page all the way through when I started laughing. Mr Lee told the story of a PR person on The Man With The Golden Gun who found him writing and asked him what he was writing.

PR: "What are you writing?"
CL: "An autobiography."
PR: "Great! Who's it about?"

I hope he lives another 87.  Barring that, make it at least 20 years, ok?

I can see Chris Lee living well into his 90's, but damn is he old! A living legend no doubt.  Thumbup

Yes. (IMHO) the last of the great villains still alive and acting. When he dies or retires, the film world will be a lesser place. Happy birthday Chris.

From what I've gathered he's still in good health.

I've seen him relatively recently on TV.  He was walking around without assistance or apparent pain (though it looks like he has some pretty serious arthritis) and was completely cognizant.  I don't think you can ask for too much more in your late 80s.

Truly one of the greatest character actors to grace the screen.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
