Alan Rickman

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

They say death always comes in 3s. Alan Rickman died today from cancer as well at age 69. A great artist in his own right.

Really odd how two English celebrities both died at age 69 from cancer within a week of eachother. RIP.

I hope I live long enough to die from cancer.

I really hope that (after)life will imitate art leading Alan Rickman to become the voice of God now.

I think John Facenda still has that job.

RIP, Dr. Lazarus.

Hard to imagine anybody else getting the job.

Hans Gruber, RIP. Still a classic film scene, looking at his face as he falls from the Nakatami Bldg.

I have (never missed a chance to see Salma Hayek) and got the reference.   Still, when I hear "voice of God" I think John Facenda.

Salma Hayek as a stripper.     Just a sign of my lack of passion for football.

Why didn't you just ask?

Wonder what he is thinking right there?
~~Oops
~~McClain, you SOB
~~But, they told me that terrorism really pays.
~~Wonder what this will feel like when I land.

My kids said they spent the day speaking with friends that they can't believe Professor Snape passed away.

Voldemort hit him with a curse.

I guess they never read the last book ---oops. guess I should have said "Spoiler Alert".

Would love to know how they filmed that.  His reaction is too good not to have had the feeling of falling.

I know you were just being flippant but as a survivor I'd ask you to respect those who haven't been so lucky.  Thanks in advance.

He landed on one of those big bluescreen stuntman "pillows".

They dropped him 25 feet into an airbag.  John McTiernan told Rickman they would count down "three-two-one-go" and release him on "go."

They dropped him on "one."

Do you know the story of that?  The director was going to drop him on the count of 3 and 3...about a 20 foot drop if I recall.  Instead, he dropped him at 1 to get the surprise reaction.


EDIT:  I see someone beat me to it.

Dont forget Lemmy.  He was the first.

And you dont need to be old.  Just a really stupid thing to say.

Not a smart comment man. Best if you give that one a nm.

I wasnt responding to glow.  I was reaponding to the guy that wants to be old enough to die from cancer.  Cancer is a miserable thing that doesnt discriminate  by age.  That to me, seems like the dumb comment.  But whatever you say i guess.  Nm.

That makes way more sense.
