RIP Robert, just saw this on the news. He had some good roles. "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead." Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock "If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it." Clarence Worley | ||

I didn't know Forster was in that movie. I had crush on Pam Grier. ********* "Some people are alive today because it's against the law to kill them". | |||

That is sad, I liked him as an actor. He seemed to act like himself in the movies he was in,very down to Earth. | |||

Very sad news. Have watched him since I was a kid and the Black Hole came out. I liked him a lot. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

Sad news, RIP. “Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the Pains to preserve it.” ― John Adams "Fire can be our friend; whether it's toasting marshmallows, or raining down on Charlie." - Principal Skinner. | |||

Just finished watching El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie. According to IMDB, it was his second to last completed role. "I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet raised to an alarming extent by Hollywood and Madison Avenue, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak!" - Calvin, "Calvin & Hobbes" | |||

The earliest work I know of him was Jackie Brown, and was very impressed by his speaking style. He spoke with such calm, clarity, and authority, I thought I can understand anything if he was doing the explaining. When he showed up on Breaking Bad, it was a very pleasant surprise. He spoke his lines just as well as he did in Jackie Brown. RIP sir, you did fine work. | |||

What a loss! I just watched him Friday on the NetFlix sequel (movie) to Breaking Bad: "El Camino-The Return of Jessie Pinkman". As usual, Mr. Forster gave an excellent performance.  "I'm not fluent in the language of violence, but I know enough to get around in places where it's spoken." | |||

He was a regular on Tim Allen's "Last Man Standing". | |||

He played Tim Allen's dad. I always enjoyed his work. | |||

He played the bad guy battling Chuck Norris in Delta Force, but I didn't hold that against him. I liked him as Tim Allen's dad in Last Man Standing, bringing some good laughs to the show. | |||

Sorry to hear that. The first time ever saw him he played an Indian scout named Nick Tana along with Greg Peck and a crazed Apache Salvaje. | |||
