John Rhys-Davies (Indiana Jones, The Lord of the Rings) joins us this week for one of my favorite interviews yet. The guy is prolific! He gets into everything from his pessimism heading into Lord of the Rings, the intimidation of working alongside Sean Connery, the immense difficulty of filming Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark, and so much more. John was an open book this week, going on to talk about the pain of losing a child, his outlook on life after death, and the current vacuum of creativity our industry is stuck in. Hope you enjoy.

@mnomadvfx Месяц назад

Not just professional but respectful. Taking public pot shots at the dead who can no longer respond to criticism is just base. The famous electrical engineer Nikola Tesla did this after the death of his former employer, reframing himself as some perpetually aggrieved martyr and the employer Westinghouse as someone who swindled him out of a fortune.

Met Mr Rhys-Davies at a con and it was my favorite encounter out of any celeb over years of going. He talked to us for a good 15 minutes like we were old mates (despite being a large lineup) and took great interest in my occupation, going into a soliloquy about the warring factions in my business, each competing with each other. I left feeling I really met a genuine human being. When we went for our portrait, he remembered us and greeted us as friends. And his two beautiful handlers called us by name. He ended up ticking our ribs which resulted in a great and very memorable picture. Can't say enough kind things about this great actor and man.

"connery was........" I think by this point most people know what connery was, he was the best bond, he was an intimidating guy, he was funny, he had a spárk, and he definitely, definitely was a jerk, and probably not a good person, if you can define the soul and character of a person between good and bad, but the only important thing is that he was a true star and a true presence. We like our actors and stars because of that, we're not judging them based on their heart, they're actors not social workers, people need to stop pretending the people they like are god's souls

That "Alpha" vibe: Sean Connery, Anthony Quinn and Marlon Brando should have been in a film together as rivals. All 3 had it.

they both had huge chips on shoulder, connery and rhys, scottish and welsh, against the english. And Harrison Ford felt it too, so quite how Denholm Elliot was treated in last crusade is a mystery.

Of course Sean Connery and Michael Caine co-starred in a movie together "The Man Who Would Be King".

Does he ever ask him about voicing MacBeth in Gargoyles? Seeing as how Rosenbaum did the Flash.

As Connery's version of King Arthur said, "I take the good with the bad. I can't love people in slices."

Imagine talking about Sean Connery and the word 'English' coming to mind. Sean was a Scot and a proud supporter of Scottish independence. Calling him 'English' would've insulted him.

Apparently, the birthrate skyrocketed on the Irish town they were filming Zardoz in. My theory is due to Sean Connery simply walking around shirtless for extended periods of time.

Robert Mitchum's Max Cady was vastly more scary than Robert De Niro's. The subtlety of the menace in the original Cape Fear had a much more constant tension even when Cady wasn't on-screen.
