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

<p dir="auto">This is an answer I gave in another thread.<br />
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.<br />
I am pedantic as well as whimsical. Thanks you, thank you, I'm here all week.</p>

<p dir="auto">I<br />
had<br />
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<br />
any<br />
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&amp;F.)<br />
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.</p>

<p dir="auto">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.<br />

<p dir="auto">Peter O'Toole was a true legend, and one of the most acclaimed and astonishib68ng talents of stage and screen.  There aren't enough words in the English language he commanded so fiercely to describe his talents and contributions to the art of acting.  An actor for over fifty years, whose awards and nominations alone are testament to his abilities.<br />
We've also just learned tonight of the death of another true acting legend, Joan Fontaine, dead at 96.  This a few days after the passing of Eleanor Parker, like Fontaine a three-time Oscar nominee.  These people had major careers and were<br />
genuine<br />
legends.<br />
Even Tom Laughlin, whose death Thursday has just been announced tonight, was a legend in a minor sort of way  a cult hero of sorts.<br />
But to mention Paul Walker and Peter O'Toole in the same breath as "legends" is preposterous.  (And to give Walker top billing on the thread topic, on the site for Peter O'Toole, is outrageous.)<br />
Walker was a nice guy, a decent if hardly versatile actor, but he never really made the big time, mostly being known simply for the "Fast and Furious" franchise, which is hardly legendary stuff.  When your career mainly consists of appearing in an endless series of the same basic thing, and not in varied and versatile films and roles, your stardom is questionable, and you're certainly no legend.  The rest of his career was just average.  He wasn't remotely as well-known as these other performers.  His death gave him more publicity than anything he ever did in life, which is kind of sad.  He died tragically and too young, and maybe he'd have had a bigger career had he lived, but sorry, he was no legend.  And I doubt he'd have claimed to be one, either.</p>

<p dir="auto">Never got into the Fast &amp; Furious movies, so didn't know who Paul Walker was until after he died. His death was tragic, he was nice, generously gave to others, young &amp; good looking, but he was not a movie legend.<br />
Peter O'Toole, absolutely a legendary actor. One of the greats, Oscar nominated many times, a long career.</p>
