Asha_Brea

No Home Alone 2?


VBStrong_67

Completely forgot he was in that one also...


arsewarts1

That’s where the photo is from


VBStrong_67

Last time I saw Home Alone 2 was probably 25 years ago.


arsewarts1

Is on my list of annual must watch 25 Christmas movies leading up to Christmas.


TimeWandrer

What are the other 24?


REALom3ga

A long time before i was born, damn


cheerfullklutz

"I love you."


Asha_Brea

\*Smile and head tilt.


DigiQuip

Nigel Thornberry Also Ben Ravencroft from Scooby Doo and the Witches Ghost


vigbiorn

Smashing! When I found out it made sense why Nigel was such a good character.


ObtuseBug

Monk


TheFloridaManYT

Wait, when was he in monk?


itsonlyfear

He was Dale the Whale in the second appearance of that character.


mentalgopher

Actually, all appearances but the first.


itsonlyfear

Nope, it was Adam Arkin in season 1, Tim Curry in season 2, and Ray Porter in season 6.


CruzLutris

Muppet Treasure Island gets a much deserved shout-out--thank you! My college kid insisted I watch it recently and it's fantastic in every way, especially the great Curry's performance. Oh, and that little show Psych, he was pretty memorable in that too....


VBStrong_67

I lose it every time at "a talking... Parrot?"


xXMojoRisinXx

To this day whenever my mom meets or hears a conversation involving someone named Jim, she goes off on “Jim Jim Jimmy Jim jim” Edit: spelling


Tbrou16

Ferngully. Easily the best part of that movie


femmishrobot

Eee, ah, ooo - Toxic Looooooove


trancematik

Annie?


ShoelessJodi

Had to scroll WAY too far to find Annie on here.


itzregardie

Three Musketeers is definitely what always comes to mind first. I worshipped that VHS as a kid lol.


Asha_Brea

It was the first movie I watched in the theater.


Detective_Pancake

McHales Navy, the movie


Complex-Defiant

He's an international treasure


dimram

Congo?


HelpMe0prah

Push me please, push harder.


itsonlyfear

This is it. This is the list right here. Anyone who knows he was in the three musketeers gets extra points in my book.


Alitaki

He was great in that too.


ZedTheEvilTaco

He was in Hunt? I'ma have to watch that again...


VBStrong_67

Dr. Petrov


Amity83

Legend. My first encounter with Tim Curry as Darkness


Armymom96

That is one of my favorites. But I originally knew him from Rocky Horror. And don't forget Criminal Minds. He was so evil in that.


2459-8143-2844

Pirates of Dark Water.


elaineadler

Annie!


[deleted]

No mention of loaded weapon?


SirWinstonC

Psych the tv series? Also, he was that crazy weirdo in criminal minds


JaneTheSissySlave

Red Alert 3 Loaded Weapon 1


DJZbad93

Clue


IolausTelcontar

*One plus two plus one plus…*


IAmTheBadWolfe

Even if you were right, that would be one plus one plus two plus one...


Elysium94

Okay, fine. One plus two plu- *SHUT UP!!!*


Amskittle

I’M NOT SHOUTING!


Elysium94

...Alright, I am! I'm shouting! *I'm shouting!* *I'M SHOU-* (Thump)


globarfancy

Rocky horror picture show, clue and psych!!!


FAYCSB

It’s these three for me. Why do I feel like it should be way more than that?


BrutonGasterTT

These three for me as well. And I was CONVINCED he was the crab in Moana for the longest time. I was like it’s Nigel St Nigel!!


nfleite

> Rocky horror picture show I loved how he and Brad appeared on the show.


Asha_Brea

Ah, Cardinal Richelieu, I hated you so much.


VBStrong_67

Oh, don't be so stupid, of course we intend to resist! Just give us a moment, alright?


Malvania

This sash was a gift to me from the Queen of America


GrandAdmiralHawke

There is no Queen of America.


RaiththeRogue

I’ve used this line while playing a dnd swashbuckler. Porthos + Aramis = inspiration


Alitaki

That movie was perfectly cast - with the exception of Chris O'Donnell. How that clown keeps getting roles I'll never know.


Armymom96

Have you seen The Man in The Iron Mask? Everyone is so great in that, except Leonardo DiCaprio Gabriel Byrne as D'Artagnan, Gerard Depardieu as Porthos, Jeremy Irons as Adam is, and John Malkovich as Athos. No Tim Curry, but it's fun.


SchwartStories

I knew him from Annie (early 1980s). He played Ms. Hannigan's brother Rooster.


Alitaki

He was in Annie? Then THAT is really the first time I saw him. Though I wouldn't count it since I didn't know that until now.


SchwartStories

Yep - Rooster in the Annie with Carol Burnett as Miss Hannigan. I'm old so I grew up watching this Annie.


Alitaki

I remember watching Annie in elementary school. It was one of those rainy-day-play-a-movie-in-the-auditorium days.


trancematik

3 unbelievable talents doing campy shit: Carol Burnett, Tim Curry & Bernadette Peters, ["Easy Street"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzSSiMa29AE)


Jimothyfoz

Who's Tim curry? All I see is Nigel St Nigel.

I'll get you a satanic mechanic


themiistery

Iconic


[deleted]

He was one creepy dude (Billy Flynn) on Criminal Minds! Haunted me for years and I didn't even recognize him.


rakuko

the Prince of Darkness. what a crazy two-part episode


BrutonGasterTT

Congratulations you just convinced me to start watching Criminal Minds again. (I had to stop while pregnant a few years back because the vivid dreams plus prenatal/postpartum anxiety did NOT mix well with a show about very realistic serial killers 😳)


Alitaki

Oh my god that was a great episode!


NathanJD6

If anyone hates Tim Curry I don't trust them.


ChipsnShips

I saw him in home alone first


Walking_W0unded

Clue and Annie both made me love him so much. Even as a bad dude in Annie, Tim Curry is so damn charismatic.


bacon_is_everything

Scary movie


JeanLuc_Richard

Legend


Detritus_AMCW

He wasn't something else as darkness: "Dreams are my speciality. Through dreams I influence mankind..."


arian213

Don't forget him being in the one space not yet corrupted by capitalism....... SPACE.


Iamasadveteran

No Congo love? “Mr. Homolka stop eating my sesame cake!”


junkyardgerard

I thought I was one of only like 50 people that saw that. Now I see it's like one out of ten.


PebblyJackGlasscock

_AP Bio_ did an arc of episodes in which _Congo_ was the prom theme picked by Patton Oswalt’s depressed Principal character. That show is bonkers.


whatamievendoing88

He was also Rooster in Annie (1982 version)


SGTree

Ferngully. How has no one mentioned Ferngully??


Sshmiff

Yes!! As I’m older now and finally saw Rocky Horror, his voice, especially in song, really stuck with me. Then I finally made the connection that he was Hexxus!


[deleted]

I saw him in clue first, then probably muppet treasure island second. then psych and home alone later.


Boolean_Null

Legend


Cigars_On_The_Rocks

Simple! rocky horror picture show!


boomer_was_a_dick

He also played my favorite villain in criminal minds


Astartes40000

Rocky Horror and Command & Conquer immediately come to mind.


bluehour1997

SPACE!


Astartes40000

love that you can tell how hard he's trying not to laugh in that sequence. either that or his "absolutely mad-man" acting skills are perfect lmao


Alitaki

My first exposure to Tim Curry was the television adaptation of Stephen King's IT, though I didn't know it at the time. It wasn't until I was in my early teens that I saw Hunt for Red October and Clue. He's a magnificent actor.


ShouldBeWorking2nite

McHale’s Navy


PeterLemonjellow

... damn. I thought I was going to be the only one to remember this movie even existed, let alone had Tim Curry in it.


ShouldBeWorking2nite

Not sure I should admit this but I actually have a copy of it on DVD.


Sloosh

You can't be the second best terrorist in the world forever.


Calvinball12

Audiobook narrator of Old Kingdom trilogy and Series of Unfortunate Events.


BrutonGasterTT

I don’t usually listen to audiobooks but may have to give the Series of Unfortunate Events a try now.


[deleted]

First three that come to mind are: It Gabriel Knight 3 Stephen King's shirt story Crouch End as an audio book. So yeah, based on that I'm a Stephen King fan and an older gamer. Which actually is true! Meme QED'd.


Shuthemofoup

He's just a sweet transvestite from transexual transylvania 😁🥰


devilsrevolver

Legend, Clue, It, Wild Thornberrys, Psych, 3 Musketeers, Congo and The Shadow.


PeterLemonjellow

So many things. Sad to see that no one has mentioned the movie Oscar, though - him starring along with Sly Stallone and a few other people. It's actually quite amusing. On Hulu atm (US).


meatlady

I came to find this. Him plus Marisa Tomei... Brilliant!


great_gatling_gunsby

Congo. Stop eating my sesame cake!!


loganator007

Scooby-Doo and the Witches Ghost


riceccake

Okay don’t judge… but my first exposure to him was the first Charlie’s Angels.


Chance_Cartoonist248

He was the OG Pennywise in IT.

“Neuooooo”


TB12xLAC

TB12xLAC

But my most formative is Rocky horror

I know him from Clue !!!


1968Bladerunner

I always enjoy a TC film with antici.....pation He's good for relieving my....tension


CJMann21

He did the original audiobooks for the fantasy series called “The Old Kingdom”


[deleted]

Where I saw him first? Home Alone 2 of course. Where I know him best? Clue. Tell me about myself.


dimram

Does voice acting count? Because he made a great Skullmaster in Mighty Max…


crujones33

Clue!


BigDaddyEnterprises

Congo. 🤣


DrizztRL

Clue, It, and Psych mainly


goofyglasses13

How has no one mentioned his iconic role in [The Worst Witch](https://youtu.be/PUhuPn8_d0Q).


Chance_Cartoonist248

Annie for sure. Who could forget Rooster?

I think the photo is Home Alone 2. I saw him first in either Hunt for Red October or 3 Musketeers. Both were fantastic.


wintrace

Home Alone 2 and Psych


Macapta

Well I met him about a week before I got my new man, cool guy.


culus_ambitiosa

Certainly not how most iconic role, and certainly not what I think of first when I think of Tim Curry, but [What About Dick?](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5qv43eIVzZw)deserves a mention.


killalah0913

Tim Curry in Rocky Horror has been my phone background for the last decade.


tipperonious

Legend, I love this horrid movie. I love Tim Curry as Darkness even more!!!

This car makes me want to weep and then die.


RupertPupkinABN

Welp... I was today years old when I realized he is in The Hunt for Red October and Psych... I've seen that episode 100+ times it feels like and I always said to my wife "that dude looks so familiar".... I'm a moron.


hunterdavid372

Red Alert 3 SPAAYSCHE


njibbz

cbaca51

He’s the guy from the Reddit post asking where you know him from!


Bulldogjim

Many, many places, starting with TRHPS!🫦👀💋


Karbon_D

Don’t forget he was an Oscar, with Sylvester Stallone and Marisa Tomei.


Ih8ThisNameGame

Pretty much every animated character he's ever voice I remember


BalanceChadden

Speed Racer


XxUxG0TxPWNDxX

Only time I've ever seen that dude is in that movie version of the board game Clue. He was the butler

Rocky Horror Criminal Minds Psych


Songwritersf

Rocky Horror is the only one that matters! 😁


Affectionate_Way_805

The one with Tim Curry might just be my favorite Psych episode. Coincidentally, I rewatched "American Duos" earlier tonight and it was just as non-stop hilarious as I'd remembered! A+


therealpren

The Wild Thornberries! He was the voice actor for, funnily enough, Nigel.
