Another great (and underrated) funny man gone, he was great in so many of the roles I saw him in, esp Anchorman and various tv guest roles like Community and Stargate SG-1.

Vale Fred Willard and thanks for all the memories and good times Sir

Vale the great Carl Reiner. True legend of the industry who talents was vast and varied. Moat of his work was before my time, but I am aware of how iconic and beloved he was for generations of people who grew up entertained by his work

Very sad

Poor John. He lost his son in tragic circumstances a few years ago as well.

Breast Cancer is just very horrible. I so wish we could find a cure for it sooner rather than later.

Tragic News. Black Panther was an incredible, rich movie, with Chadwick's powerful performance a significant factor for it. I am gutted

RIP Sean Connery

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

NOT 007 . IT SIMPLY CANNOT BE.

VALE THE LEGENDARY SEAN CONNERY.



From Russia with Love is still the best Bond movie for my money, and Bond has never been better than Connery's original and best interpretation (although I do like Daniel Craig)

Great actor, not much more

Best Line ever. As he climbed onto an oil rig.

We're cleaning up the world. Thought this might be a suitable place to start.

His comic genius was often overlooked.

RIP Sean.

Bond, James Bond

A belated tip of the hat to Geoffrey Palmer, great actor with a textbook dry Brit wit.

And whilst I'm obviously pretty street, As Time Goes By is a guilty pleasure of mine...
