The OP is trolling. Eleanor Parker, O'Toole, and Joan Fontaine make up the trio. Walker was an OK person and mediocre actor, Tom Laughlin was a great man and even worse actor than Walker. That's no trolling, just the objective facts, m'am, all provable in a court of law.

I
had
heard of the Fast and Furious franchise. But bear in mind that our ability to remember things that matter to us depends upon our ability to tune out or forget material that we either don't care about or actively disdain. There's only so much memory
any
brain, no matter how capacious, will store. Knowing that the Fast and Furious franchise was crap, why would I endeavor to learn the names of cast members? (Vin Diesel is a name I've had the misfortune to encounter in other contexts, but Walker seems to have gained a reputation almost exclusively through his work in F&F.)
I have nothing but contempt for that franchise, even more so after reading up on it in the days following the crash. So I'd say that my "reading filters" were working pretty well in that instance. -

The OP may be a troll, but, believe me, he isn't NEARLY as bad as that SOB who kept starting threads titled "Jack Nicholson Warned Him/Her"!
I hope that jerk has been banned permanently from IMDb message boards! -

what is the name paul walker doing in the same sentence as Peter O'Toole?? i don't understand are you actualy comparing the "one-role-street-racing-thug-even-if-the-movie-is-set-in-the-medieval-age" to a legendary actor like O'Toole?

This is an answer I gave in another thread.
I'm not a Paul Walker hater, but put all of Peter's bad films together and he's still the best. You simply cannot compare the likes of Paul Walker to Peter O'Toole. You wouldn't compare Walker to any of the top echelon actors such as Hopkins or Brando, and O'Toole is arguably either at their level or better. I do not speak ill of the dead, but although the world lost a great person in Paul Walker, it did not lose a great actor, while with O'Toole it lost both. May they both rest in peace.
I am pedantic as well as whimsical. Thanks you, thank you, I'm here all week. -

Yes, because Paul Walker was obviously an actor of the same caliber as Peter O'Toole, and
Fast and Furious
is a timeless classic like
Lawrence of Arabia
. Meanwhile, Justin Bieber is as talented a musician as Placido Domingo, and Stephanie Meyers is the greatest American writer since Faulkner and Hemingway!
