I was just reading some of the more fasinating threads commerating some of the other Major-minor characters, and while many good Brody stuff lies buried with the wake of Sam Earch's passing, I don't feel like bumping an old thread. So I lazily started a new one.
Knowing that Denholm Elliot has passed, and that any hope of him in IJ-IV is long since passed, I figured we here at the Raven could pause for a moment and reflect on the man (Dr.) Marcus Brody, his life and those characteristics of his, that endear him to us.
This thread is for him.
"I will never forget the time we were sitting at a pub in the heart of London many years ago. He was regailing his over-exagerated experience in the desert just south of the ruins of Alexandreta. After hearing him explain how he singlehandedly overcame the driver of the tank he was being held captive in, and how Henry Sr. would have surely died at the hand of Vogel if he Marcus hadn't pulled Herny dramaticly off the back of the tank, I couldn't help but believe in his bravado he demonstrated, leading up to those exploits.
He said that they were traveling to the Canyon of the Crecent Moon, and Donovan, the traitor, offered him water. Marcus, in his own codgerly way exclaimed "I'd rather spit in your face, but as I haven't got any spit..."
Ah, he made me laugh...
