The Bad News Bears have lost their skipper. Hopefully, the plot has a nice "View From the Bridge."

"Heaven Can Wait" no longer. Hope they have a place to get a good "Shampoo" where he is. RIP.

Though John Voight had the title role, you really were "The Champ." RIP

I loved him. SOOOO UPSET. I lived for The Bad News Bears movies my Father used to take me and my Sister. He was one of my favorite film actors when I was a kid.
He will be missed.

He single-handedly made DIRTY WORK a funny film.

I love Jack Warden, ever since I was a kid and he played Charlie's uncle in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. RIP.

Uhhhh, Whaaa? Whose Uncle where?

Jack Albertson played Charlie's Grandpa...

Am I missing something here?

Jack Albertson was GRANDPA Joe. But you have my deepest consolation nonetheless.

My apologies... while I absolutely grew up loving Willy Wonka, I haven't actually seen the movie in a number of years, while I still can sing the ompa loompa song, Grandpa Joe's name slipped by me.
