I've often enjoyed watching James Earl Jones over the years. I was a fan, make that I'm a fan even though he is gone, I'll still enjoy the movies I like to watch.

Movies I've had the pleasure of watching were Star Wars, The Hunt For Red October, and Field of Dreams. In each the chapter he played was strong and domineering. As Darth Vader he was a master villain. The Hunt For Red October he was the skipper of a submarine who wanted something different. In Field of Dreams he was someone who was involved in finding the baseball players who came from a different time. He was also the voice of the Main character in Lion King.

These were just a few of his many roles, and he was well regarded on stage. I think he was well rounded and did a good job
