Very underrated actor, RIP.

Pongo! No!!! That's awful. Voiced in my favorite Disney movie of all time. This sucks.

Rod Taylor RIP. May you finally get that Dalmatian Plantation in the sky.

RIP Rod Taylor. His spirit lives on in several classics like "The Time Machine" (1960) and of course "101 Dalmatians". Pongo still remains one of my favorite Disney animated characters, and is probably one of the best Disney animated father figures (up there with Mufasa and King Triton off the top of my head). Dedicated, determined, loving, at times humourous, and altogether charming (much like Pongo) Mr. Taylor's shining star will remain within the films that he made.

Rest in Peace

For me, Rod Taylor was never more Rod Taylor than in this film.

He did a magnificent job.

Rod Taylor RIP. May you finally get that Dalmatian Plantation in the sky. Macho Man 2015 WWE HOF.
