Titan of acting. (Sat May 6, 2006 12:50am ET)report post

Everyone here seems to understand that Michael Ironside is one of the greatest actors of all time. In the world of Cinema there are very few actors who are as readily recognizeable as Mr. Ironside.

I'm a great admirer of his, and wish his movie career to continue for many years so that he may give life to a great many more characters.

If I could ask Michael Ironsides any question, it would be if he ever got frustrated with other actors. In Starship Troopers he was excellent but had to engage in onscreen conversation with Casper Van Dien (Rico). And he still managed to make it look good.

Anyway, yet another fan in a sea of fans.

PS: I had to look up Van Dien by googling "Rico."

Michael Ironside is a great actor and a very sexy masculine man. His work with David Winning is excellent, especially the movie, "Killer Image." Bald men are sexy. Damn.

Nice work on Walker: Texas Ranger, too!

What ever happened to the "Totally Ironside" fansite? Did his managers finally tell that weirdo who runs it to cool it?

michael ironside thank you for helping me get a role as a extra in the philippines. All you said was yes i know him. Then i was in the movie. That started my movie..but i today need to get into the movies again can you please help me? I was in the philippines for 12 years i have learned plenty. I would like to become a extra again and then movie up the ladder to actor. So I can make some money. Today the net of 50/50 movie writing the real facts/and then playing the movie as not real facts. Like many of your movies which are real good. How to tell the people the real story/ Like the underground bases in the usa that work with aliens. and the mach 2 cars that nasa runs. it is all good. but what about the american people placed out of the jobs and no place to go. the government takes the bite or the president he cant talk but we can. look the cia and nasa control to much today. maybe we have to close the agency down....cia. If not we are really in for a war. look i love usa but the philippines and the 300,000 tons of yamashita gold the japanese want it all they have taken posts in the philippine government. like to get a movie with you..bob

this is a neat forum; there's an ironmaidens e-mail list somewhere i was a member of for a while. i like the part in the biography that says he's a seasoned actor with a devoted cult following...i guess that's true!

so yeah, a.p.k, he's a ladies' man and a tough guy's guy. Smile

www.michaelironside.com has the most up-to-date info; i don't see a link to it anywhere. there's also a great article from a fan who met him in london and her experiences for us who may never get the honor.

If anyone is interested, for all of you Ironside diehards (oops, that was a Bruce Willis flick, although he would have been a great bad guy in that) ... I just signed up for a discussion group all about this wonderful and talented actor! You have to fill out a questionaire to gain entry, but if i got in, so can you!
Just go to: http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/MICHAEL_IRONSIDE_FANS/

I came up with a list of my top 20 questions I would ask Michael Ironside. Chief among them was "What was your favorite movie to be in" followed by "Which role did you love to play the most?"

Has anyone seen the BLADES series, where he's the bad guy?

And how about this remake of Poisdeion Adventure, or however you spell it, where he's the Priest? That's what I'm talking aboot.

Anybody want to do a national Ironside day? I want to. Sounds borderline stalkeresk. But hey, I want to get with some fellow Ironside fans and discuss. It stinks when nobody else knows what I'm talking about when I say the words "Watchers" or "Neon City".

Please anybody interested in doing that email me.

So, when is this National Michael Ironside Fan Day? Is he appearing at any conventions coming up? I'm due for a good vacation. Anyone with connections?

What new movies is he involved in lately?

Mike, I think my first question would be "how have you juggled all of those movies and tv shows and still had a life outside of the industry?" He is married with kids, right? If not, tell him to call me! ;)

So, what is this "Blades" series about? I've never heard of it and I didn't see it on IMDB.com. It's not based on the vampire movies starring Wesley Snipes is it?

I think a National Ironside Day would be totally cool! Too bad we missed his birthday a few months ago. Count me in, just say when....

-Diana

To A.P.K.: Hey, I think I have the answer to your earlier question... I believe the movie you were asking about was "Visiting Hours". That's the one he is super creepy and silent most of the film. So, have you converted your girlfriend into a fan yet?

IRONSIDE=SUPREME TOUGH GUY (Fri Aug 20, 2004 4:07pm ET)report post
by Michael Harrelson
When I first saw "V", this dude was the best. I recently bought the series, and WOW. It was like 12 hidden episodes I never knew existed, because I never watched the series.

It is my goal to meet him one day before I die, as he is one of the first and most important reasons I am an actor today. If anyone knows how to contact him I WILL PAY TOP DOLLAR.

Ok, maybe not TOP Top, but I WANT TO MEET THIS ACTOR.

He was just so great in V, Chaindance (Common Bonds), Deadly Surveillance, Total Recall, Black Ice, Scanners, Murder in Space was nice....just everything.

I really hope he gets more attention, Deepwater looks good and this other one he's filming that has stars in it.

Ham Tyler forever!

Man -- Ironside has been in so many movies. A few were pretty corny... but he is always really good anyway. What was the name of the one where he is a murderer? I think he's a mute or something in it? Anybody out there know? I watched it a few years ago with my girlfriend she couldn't stand the movie or Him. But I liked it. Do any chicks out ther like his stuff? Or he is a tough guys guy?

Maybe you can answer that Diana. Oh, and I would be a total idiot if i met any celebrity. It would be liike Uhhhhh and Duhhhhhh, you're cool man... you rock! Yeah - like they really wanna hear that. Later Dudes!

Well A.P.K., to answer your question, obviously if I am on his fan site, I think he's pretty great! I am probably much older than your girlfriend... so I can appreciate more than the average female. He's just got this charisma and sexiness that some women find more appealing than the likes of Brad pitt and Tom Cruise. Besides, when my ex wanted to watch a marathon of "B" movies, including some earlier ones with Mr. Ironside, I didn't and wouldn't have minded regardless -- as long as he was right next to me and we were just enjoying the time spent together.... maybe you should let your girlfriend know how much it means to you when she does the things you want to do just to be close with you. Ok, now I sound like Dr. Ruth or something!

Oh, and I don't know the name of the movie you're talking about! Sorry!
