Untitled[edit]

This comment wouldn't survive in his bio because it is based upon opinion, but does anyone else think that his death scene in Terminator 2 is one of the best incidents of personal sacrifice in motion picture. Whenever I watch T2 I always reflect upon that scene and how that character went from being responsible for the creation of a device that would kill billions to giving his life in an attempt to stop that future from coming to pass. When he takes his last breath and dies (and thus drops the weight) it is like the real weight has been lifted from his shoulders.

I think it is perhaps one of the best scenes to capture self sacrifice in film, but I realize that such things can not be put in the encyclopedia so I decided to discuss it, heh.

He was on House as well, playing a senator.

Should we also note that he was in X-Files? Episode #167-806 called 'Redrum' from season 8? 148.166.12.204 (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First Apearance?[edit]

I came here because as I am writing, I happen to be watching an episode of Mission Impossible and I see Joe Morton in this episode (Hunted) and I am not sure of the year, but this looks to be one of his earliest works. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.234.233.203 (talk) 03:41, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

He also played a role in M*A*S*H, the TV show. Not sure what year but it was Season 4, Episode Der Tag, he played the role of Captain Saunders. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Phyzzle4Ryzzle (talk • contribs) 04:21, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I Think he was in Blues Brothers 2000 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.77.141.192 (talk) 00:17, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Astonishing And Amazing[edit]

...That Mr. Morton's resume doesn't include his indie movie "The Brother From another Planet"! Nor even his first TV series, produced by PBS-TV "Watch Your Mouth", where he aptly played a dedicated high school teacher amid a group of diverse and sometimes troubled group of studentds --69.119.73.36 (talk) 01:38, 19 October 2011 (UTC)Veryverser[reply]

Cyborg solo film[edit]

Morton confirmed that he signed a three movie deal, saying “It was set up as a three picture deal. The first being Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice, the second one being Justice League and the third one being the Cyborg film."^[1] But the third film is "contingent on how these movies do. So far, Wonder Woman has done really well, and we’re hoping that Justice League does equally as well.”^[1] Because whatever Morton signed was based on a contingency — the specific details of which he has not disclosed (i.e., what constitutes as "doing well") — and considering the requirements of WP:BLP its inclusion in the article should be viewed as apocryphal. — Spintendo^Talk 20:57, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
