RIP Chuck! Robin Hood: Men in Tights, one of these best films out there in its category. Watched a ton of Duck Tales growing up as a kid too!

Not Chuck McCann! This guy was a big part of my childhood. Duckworth, Burger Beagle, and Bouncer Beagle from DuckTales, Thing from Fantastic Four, the Amoeba Boys from the original Powerpuff Girls, sigh. I always loved that he could do anything from a refined voice to a beefy tough guy voice. I'm going to miss you, Chuck. : (

Not only was Chuck McCann a major presence in my childhood (various Disney cartoons, etc.), but one of my all-time favorite performances of his was an absolutely nutty turn in the first season of Sliders (back when it was good) as "Captain Jack Brim," a character based on Elvis Presley's real-life manager Colonel Jack Parker, on an alternate Earth.

R.I.P., man.
