Talk:Kevin Peter Hall

message: In the article on Kevin Peter Hall, it says his death was caused by pneumonia.  However, the article on his wife says he died of AIDS after an infected blood transfusion.  Neither article references anything that explains which is true.  One of the articles, at least, needs to be fixed.
In reference to the question above,
Hall passed away from HIV induced Pneumonia.
Both stated cuase of death are correct partially correct. 
While technically it was pneumonia that killed him, it was a complication resulting from HIV that progressed into AIDS.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dialn911 (talk • contribs) 10:02, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Moving this to Talk, as none of the sources cited mentioned anything about it.In the fall of 1990, Hall was involved in a serious car accident in Los Angeles. It was widely rumored that during surgery for his critical wounds, he received a blood transfusion that was contaminated with HIV. Soon after his transfusion, the HIV developed into AIDS and he went public with his illness with the full support of his wife.If he did indeed "go public" with this then there should be sources available. Please add cites before returning this to article. -- 201.37.230.43 (talk) 23:38, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

message: Any special reason for deleting info on Hall's death? The responsible editor, while anonymous, usually seems to make sensible edits so I'm not assuming spamming / simple content deletion quite yet. Otherwise, I'm leaving this to an administrator of en:wp. --Baba Tabita (talk) 16:50, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

message: There is no photo of him But I heard remours that he was black. And they put him in a full body costume in "Predator" so you cannot see him. Can you show a photo of him please? The racial profile should also be changed then from American to African American to honor his blackground. 93.219.128.115 (talk) 11:09, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: He was indeed black. Here's a puzzle though, Harry's eyes are clearly green, while Kevin Peter Hall has brown eyes like most black people. The mask uses the actor's real eyes, so I'm stumped on that.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.182.130.241 (talk) 05:21, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Sort of makes you wonder if Hall was asked to wear coloured contact lenses and, if so, why? Did some bright exec at Universal/Amblin decide that Sasquatch have green eyes? That's show-business... Bowdenford (talk) 14:59, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

text: He wore light blue contacts which made them appear green because his natural eye color was so dark, and soft lights have a yellow tint. They did it for the movie because the visual designer for Harry wanted his eyes to be "expressive", so they slapped on the lightest blue contacts they could, knowing they would darken quite a bit. Since it was made for kids, and at the time Hollywood generally used lighter colors to represent friendliness/trustworthiness (blue eyes are seen as innocent and angelic) and something "big and scary" shouldn't have menacing brown eyes or it will never be convincing, everyone went along with it. They often gave the good guys blue eyes and the bad guys brown eyes, unless they were trying to pass the bad guy off as ALSO attractive, in which case you'd see a darker actor with green or blue eyes. I know. It's ridiculous. But that's how it was in that decade. When the series came out though, they kept his eyes brown due to the vision of a different designer. 98.209.228.109 (talk) 20:07, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
