I don't know if anyone else here so this yet but Bob Anderson just passed away. If you don't know who he is, He played Darth Vader during all the lightsaber duels in the original trilogy.

I thought that was David Prowse.......

"Beefcake the Mighty, clotted with spew. His sword falls, skulls burst in two. The eyes burst from sockets, he is not through. Thousands of warriors he does this to. Piling the corpses of those that he slew. Untill it was hard to tell if the pile grew!"-GWAR -
Sounds like he had a long and great career and got to meet a lot of great actors. May the Force be with him."Thrawn: "Do you know the difference between an error and a mistake, Ensign?"
Colclazure: "No, sir."
Thrawn: "Anyone can make an error, Ensign. But that error doesn't become a mistake until you refuse to correct it." [points at Pietersen, Rukh kills him] "Dispose of it. The error, Ensign, has now been corrected. You may begin training a replacement."

@Tony David Prowse did play Darth Vader but only in the non-fight scenes. According to the article, Prowse was not very good with a sword/lightsaber so Anderson, who is a movie sword master, played Darth Vader during the duel scenes
@Cotto Yeah he was quite the movie sword master and although he is not a household name, he made a huge impact in the movie world. Sometimes those with the smallest parts end up being the biggest stars. He will surely be missed.
