His Aliens Hudson role almost stole the show, with some great lines.

Apart from the whinging "Game Over man" line entering popular culture I still use his sarcastic, "Yeah, but it's a dry heat", to describe very humid or cold/rainy weather*

*To the annoyance of family members.

Sad day.  He was a big part of one of my top 5 films.

Some people say I'm self-obsessed but that's enough about them.
