:(

Sad way to check out.
:(

You gotta be kidding me. Its the best way to check out. Spend everything you got before you die. That is a good life.

Battling your ex-husband over money while he is dying from cancer? Wow.

What a great actor, his role in Apocalypse Now is one of my favorites.

he had plenty of great roles.

I've been a fan of his since I saw Easy Rider waaaaaay back in the 70's. He lives in Venice, only a mile or so from where I live--I saw him once at Hal's (restaurant) on Abbott Kinney, and another time in my bank. He was a good photographer, and could've had a career shooting photos.

probably broke BECAUSE of the cancer. Treating even minor cancer is a HUGE medical bill

just read his bitch wife stole 1.5 mil in paintings while he was in the hospital and is in hiding.

He is one of the best. Weird as fuck, but a great performer.

guess that means they wont be making Crash season 3 :(

Sucks to go like that

Absolutely one of my fav movies


















Wishing Dennis the best

truly is:disgust

Funnily enough we saw Peter Fonda last year riding the Captain America replica bike.

That's the great american way

Ps: I'm not a hater but private healthcare sucks big time, you guys have to give your president the benefit of the doubt :2 cents:

His scene in true romance was the best ever :) He died like a man the for real.

Can't believe nobody posted this EPIC scene yet:



Dennis fucking Hopper is da man!

Very sad to see the position he's in. One of the all time greats. :(

Very true. Star or not, medical bills will destroy you in no time.

Yea, this is the one, one of the greatest scenes of all time :)

What a shame,always liked him as an actor,shitty way to go

great actor indeed, can't forget his parts in "Easy Rider" and "Waterworld" even in "Space Truckers" he was absolutely amazing!

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh i was going to post that... one of my favorite movie scenes of all time...




.

I watched " True Grit " for the first time last week and noticed a very young Dennis Hopper playing one of the bad guys. He certainly has played a lot of memorable roles and while he will be sorely missed as a person, his body of work will go on forever. I hope he can leave this world happy and satisfied.

Live hard, die broke...

I feel ya, sure can't take it with ya!

That and easy rider were his best movies :thumbsup

His work in True Romance may have been the best ever filmed

great actor , to bad :(

Met him several times. He was a friend of Bill's for many years. A true artist. Hope he pulls through!

The link to the actual story. Why wait for one website to load up it's ads on you when they dont even carry the content?

Bummer. :(

73 y.o. He lived long enough...

sad finish

Lot's of support and courage to one of the all time greats.

Bad marriage and bad health is not an easy combination.

Been a huge fan ever since I saw Easy Rider, one of my all time favorite villain character actors too (Blue Velvet tops).

Hopper, 73, filed for divorce Jan. 14 and both sides have cited irreconcilable differences for the breakup. A court hearing on visitation and the protective order is scheduled for March 9.

Thursday's filings were first reported by celebrity Web site TMZ.

Victoria Hopper, 42, claimed in court papers filed last month that the actor smoked marijuana around their daughter, threatened her and that his illness had left him unable to make sound decisions. She also claims the divorce proceedings are an attempt to keep her from receiving an inheritance.

Makes one wonder how does something as a 14 year marriage turn into something this nasty.

Sounds extremely fishy.

73 years for Dennis Hopper is probably like 120 for anybody else. Seems like this guy stuffed allot of living into it.

Man, if anything Hopper needs to go out like he did on Speed. Dying slowly isn't his style. :(
