It's really sad Tim Curry had a stroke.

He was always a great villain even in the cheesiest roles

The Three Musketeers is basically unwatchable without Tim Curry hamming it up in a cape.

The lead actors are all terrible.

If I'm not mistaken, he reads audio books! Unless those are all pre-stroke as well. He is, however, comfortable making public appearances again, so that's pretty good too, at least.

He was even good on TV as Nigel St. Nigel.

It took me until I saw that guy on tiktok who does a Nigel impression to learn that Tim Curry was the voice

Edit: So I misunderstood this comment and came to the wrong conclusion. I thought they were talking about Nigel Thornberry from Eliza and the Thornberry's

You know that's right!
