Super Mario Bros. actor Bob Hoskins dies aged 71 [Eurogamer.net]
British actor Bob Hoskins has died aged 71 following pneumonia, his agent has announced.
Hoskins played Mario in the 1993 Super Mario Bros. film loosely based on Nintendo's platformer series.
The film, which also starred Dennis Hopper as King Kooper, was a critical and financial failure, and Hoskins never shied away from admitting it hadn't turned out as well as he'd hoped.

He was a good actor. Two of my favorite movies of his are Roger Rabbit, and Hook.
Was really hoping he'd be able to manage his parkinson's and maybe return to acting, ala Fox. :/
