He will always be the Pirate in Muppet Treasure Island to me. Thanks for everything you gave the world

He was easily my favorite part of that movie. The scene where he preaches his way out of getting The Black Spot lives rent-free in my head:

(aside: Someone needs to upload a better-quality version of this to YouTube)

I watched that movie so many times as a child I could probably still recite every line.

RIP Long John Silver!
