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)

[edit] 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.
[edit] "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)
[edit] 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)
[edit] 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)
[edit] 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)
[edit] Speed 3?
What is this Speed 3 nonsense? Is it just me, or is this pure gossip?
