    Bob Hoskins retires from acting

    First O'Toole, now Hoskins. And at least O'Toole seems to have been able to go out on his own terms; Hoskins is retiring due to Parkinson's Disease. Sad.

    Criticism is good. Suggestions are better.

    That's quite sad, really. I always thought he had a few more films in him, but at least he's retiring gracefully. Enjoy it, Bob, you've deserved it.

    Last film I saw him in was Unleashed/Danny the Dog. I always thought Nolan Norths take on Penguin in Arkham City was partly inspired by Bob but maybe I'm being wishful. I just wish Mr Hoskins some happinness in his remaining years.
