Loved his Nike ads where he played an NFL Referee, “Bad things, man.”So did I.

A tweet I just read said he was rushed with severe respritory problems. Another says tubes were seen coming out of his body and hooked up to oxygen and another said he was conscious but in serious condition not critical.

He was great in Hoosiers and many, many other films.

All reports that I have seen report Hopper taken to hospital with flu-like symptoms, not a heart attack.

Oh, sure, they say it’s a heart attack. What it actually is is Bruce Smith finally found out Dennis was sniffing his shoes.

Yeah. His publicist said the 73 year old actor had flu-like symptoms and was taken to the hospital. This was 29 minutes ago.

twitter reports coming in that he is “non-responsive” Not good. Sounds like Michael Jackson all over again. Hoping for a miracle..

Great actor. Hopper’s performance in Apocalypse Now was brilliant. His role as Frank Booth in Blue Velvet has to rank as the creepiest SOB ever on film. Prayers to him.

Loved Hopper in “Hoosiers” as the assistant basketball coach. Still probably the best sports movie I’ve ever seen. I hope he can pull out of this.

He's been one of my favorite actors since Easy Rider.
I hope he recovers, but if you gotta go, fast is the way to do it.
