There was something almost the same as that when they did "Top Ten Things That Sound Creepy When Said by John Malkovich". That's a good list as well.

[@dharmabeachbum6330]

I loved the Top Ten lists so much that I kept a computer file of them back in the day. ..Anyway, as much as I despise what the network has become, I wish Mr. Jones would have said, "This .. is CNN." What a great voice!

[@jackfitzpatrick8173]

Great stuff! As for films I liked him best in Cry,The Beloved Country. It's not very well known but it is a truly classic film.

[@esdyaz]

Rest in peace great legend. Now you are one with the force.

RIP James. The world will miss you !

[@krakenhawkstratdude204]

James Earl Jones on Letterman was peak civilization.

[@Blokewood3]

The way he said the word "son" was so cool they had to work it into as many performances of his as possible: Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, Conan the Barbarian, Field of Dreams, Lion King, House, and probably others.

[@adamgh0]

1:16 has lived rent free in my brain to this day.

[@CherryRedBanshee]

Rest In Peace, Mr. Jones ❤️

[@strangewayfaringstranger]

If people haven't seen The Sandlot, go watch that. He is in it too. Rest in peace to a legend. Obviously he's best known for Vader though, I have played so many Star Wars games and watched just about every show. I was so happy to hear him in Obi-Wan. I don't think there is a more iconic voice in acting.
