You will be missed Roy and this evenings news really makes me sad. I really liked you as an actor and a person.I watched your films growing up and I was sad to see how (at least it seemed that way) you were under-appreciated (if casting has any say in that).I loved your work in - 2010- Seaquest- the 4th War- Jaws 1 and 2and numerous other filmsThank you for all of the wonderful years of entertainment and please RIP.

Freaky, I've been on a kick of showing my son the great scifi movies of the 80s and we JUST got done with 2010 last night. That's almost as funky as the time I was watching Cosmos and happend to see that that day was he 10th anniversary of the death of Carl Sagan on Boing Boing. Anyway, thanks Roy, we really loved your films.

Oh man, THANK YOU for getting that right! People always say "we're" which completely ruins the line.

Very few of the reports on Schneider mention his role in '2010', where he pulled off the astronaut role pretty well. 'You're going to need a bigger spacecraft...'
