Young

nothing on his friendship and film with neil young?

Under Trivia "Super Mario Bros. is the only film in the comedy film genre he appeared in." This is not correct. There is at least one other. My Science Project (1985) was also comedy. In fact My Science Project shares the same sub-genre of comedy/adventure/science fiction as Super Mario Bros Shane C 05:25, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Art history

If it is true that Hopper still seems himself as an artist first, has had work published about him, and actually has produced a fairly weighty body of works, this article should really stop being a compendium of his film work and personal life and branch out into his artistic accomplishments more explicitly. There is at least one book out about Hopper's art and the lack of inclusion here is telling.

"Character irony"

Is this part really necessary?

Actors play characters with different views/personalities to themselves all the time, hence the word character. --81.178.216.91 20:48, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Agreed - that's why it's called "acting". ––86.133.167.10 23:38, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Mugshot

Is it really neccesary to include a mugshot, since it seems of such little relevance (minor traffic charges)? Rune X2 18:02, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Shuffleboard backlash

Hopper's Ameriprise commercial in fall '06 featured a negative reference to shuffleboard, and the City of St Petersburg Florida(where the game was born) passed a resolution discouraging him from visiting unless he issued an apology. The resolution was really funny, and included references to his checkered past, and whereas 'how even David Crosby would decline a liver from Dennis Hopper.'71.122.59.219 02:21, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

POV

How do you flag an article up for POV?

Having read the meticulously verified 'Easy Riders, Raging Bulls', this chat-bio of Hopper stinks. Icon as he is, there's plenty of 'material' regarding attributions in 'Rider and 'the rest is history' career path as writ here.

I'll have to get my copy back from my mate to pad this out, Wiki style. --TresRoque 23:36, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Speed 3?

What is this Speed 3 nonsense? Is it just me, or is this pure gossip?

Retrospective?

whats a retrospective (in his picture caption) ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.161.68.25 (talk) 16:52, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

More about paintings

In his Daily Show interview, he said that there were big retrospectives of his paintings in (spelling of museums may be wrong) the Stedling Museum in Amsterdam, Mac Museum in Vienna, 5 rooms at the Hermitage St. Petersburg, and in Moscow. He also joked about being "the most famous artist in Russia; nobody knows [me] in the United States". Maybe something should be mentioned in the article? Esn (talk) 08:38, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Johnny Guitar

Hopper states here that he was never in Johnny Guitar (his supposed debut). I removed this from the film bio section. BeastmasterGeneral 13:53, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Political information

What is it with every hollywood celebrity having something either bashing bush or promoting Obama? Why is it relevant for a person with 70 years of history to have Obama in their entry? In a term or two Obama will go back to where he was prior to this election, a fart in the wind of no relevance.Woods01 (talk) 06:26, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
