In Memorial (Celebs that have passed)

[Money]

This hurts for me since Young Frankenstein is my favorite Mel Brooks movie who can forget the classic line from the giant door scene Gene Wilder seeing the huge ornaments on it and saying "What knockers." and she thanks him that is classic comedy that this generation needs to take notes from on what's funny she was a Hollywood beauty for her time and she will be missed

Someone once asked me "What's Eraserhead about?" I considered it for a moment and, in one of my rare moments of spontaneous wit, I answered "It's about 90 minutes."

[Jesse90]

2 time Oscar winner Gene Hackman, his wife and their dog were found dead in their home in Santa Fe. Gene was 95

As much as I admired Gene Hackman, as a pure Buffy fanatic the loss of Michelle Trachtenberg affects me so much more. The youngest member of the cast being the first to die is so saddening.

I'm not going to compare deaths like that. Gene Hackman was a legendary actor and in several movies I loved. He also wrote western and mystery books that were good too.

The Birdcage, Unforgiven, French Connection, Get Shorty, Scarecrow. I'm leaving out a bunch I know, but these are the first that come to mind for me.

This one hurts my first introduction to Gene Hackman was the first Superman movie he will always be the OG big screen Lex Luthor to me the best villain by far seeing him other things across the decades be it Heartbreakers with a very, very young Jennifer Love Hewitt or the classic football movie the replacements with a very crazy Linebacker that will become Iron man's driver in the MCU and some guy who was in the Matrix Gene will be missed by this movie fan very much

This one hurts...

Val Kilmer has passed away due to complications with throat cancer and pneumonia. He was the first Batman I saw but his most iconic role for me is Doc Holliday in Tombstone.

[Money]

I feel your pain Val Kilmer will always be "Iceman" to me best wingman ever

[HER_ABHORRED_SHEARS]

That sucks. RIP.

At least he got to be in the new Top Gun (which really lived up to the hype—upstaging the original in my view.)
