So many iconic roles, with Coming To America probably being my favorite.

Aw man, this sucks. One of the most recognizable voices ever in entertainment. While I'm not a fan of Disney's recent trend of "live action," versions of their animated classics, I'm glad at least they still used him for Mufasa in The Lion King. He always seemed like a down to earth kind of guy too, when I'd see interviews with him. At least he got to live to a ripe old age.

The man was a great actor who had an amazing voice. Just to name a few of his roles and narrations I think fondly of. I loved him in all of these rolled and I would rank them in this order.
Darth Vader in Star Wars
Terence Mann in field of Dreams
Thulsa Doom in Conan
Mufasa in the Lion King
Professor Bank in Soul Man
Admiral Greer in the Jack Ryan franchise
King Jaffe in the Coming to America franchise
Goody Nelson in Garden of Stones
Mr Mirtle in the Sandlot films
The narrator in Disney’s America Legends
Himself on Bing Bang Theory
Rest in Peace Mr Jones.
