Michael Clarke Duncan (The Green Mile, Armegeddon) across the aisle from me in F LAS-LAX.

He and I spoke briefly as we were waiting to board on the jetbridge. Apparently the gate agent was trying to get us on the plane and out on time, but the pilot didn't want us on. The pilot stormed off the plane and went and had "a chat" with the gate agent.

Michael tried to get me to go talk to the pilot (jokingly) and kept saying "hey man, you're the muscle here - go ahead!" (I'm 5'11, 170#)

We chatted on the flight home after we got airborne briefly. He was being hosted at the MGM Grand that weekend and evidently had a good time.

A very enjoyable conversation and a very nice guy!
