Vincent D' Onofrio was the garage mechanic in the great Adventures in Babysitting AND the villainous Kingpin in the greater Daredevil miniseries? Now if that isn't a range for an actor then I don't know what is.
Likely the actor with the most extensive filmography of the cast, D’Onofrio’s work has ranged from an iconic turn in Full Metal Jacket (out the same year as Adventures in Babysitting) to working with directors such as Kathryn Bigelow and Tim Burton, and being nominated for an Emmy for his television work. The man who embodied Thor on the big screen before Chris Hemsworth was in pre-school even made it into the Marvel Cinematic Universe this past year in Netflix’s Daredevil as Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin, delivering a larger than life performance. D’Onofrio also popped up this summer in Jurassic World and he’ll appear in Antoine Fuqua’s take on The Magnificent Seven in 2016.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

I knew! The man has an amazing range, definitely a master of his trade.
He was also Edward the Bug in Men In Black.
Oooooo look at that blonde mullet, LOL! Seriously, he's an amazing actor. Glad to see he's back acting again.
