Considering our wide range of interest, and that the list of famous people isn't going to stop growing, I figured it's about time we stopped starting a thread every time someone even remotely famous passes away. So here goes. Nate Dogg (1969-2011)
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. Owsley ‘Bear’ Stanley , a 1960s counter-culture figure, who “flooded the flower power scene with LSD and was an early benefactor of the Grateful Dead” and subject of songs “Kid Charlemagne" and “Alice D. Millionaire”
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. I am feeling great sadness feelings about famous person's death. Can I also say happy birthday to all my facebook "friends" here and be done with that,too?
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. I'm thinking I should amend the thread title to "R.I.P./B.I.H" to, you know, cover our bases for when Kim Jong-il finally kicks or Cristiano Ronaldo tightens that auto-erotic asphyxiation belt one notch too many.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. Alfred is dead. Michael Gough who played Alfred in the previous franchise has passed away at 94. http://www.tmz.com/2011/03/17/alfre...ies-dead-died-94-michael-keaton-the-avengers/
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. Great scott Batman, Alfred's dead! 'Batman' Actor Michael Gough Dies at Age 94
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. And I thought it was the original 'Alfred.' He's been dead since 1988.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. Seconded. No disrespect. I could have gone until the next award season before hearing about Alfred. That sucks. RIP Nate Dogg
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. There there it's time to be a big boy and accept the fact people die. Please remove the R. What is wrong with some of you. It's not like you are going to watch a game later than originally broadcast.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. this will be helpful in ensuring that nobody knows who has died unless they read the Big Soccer Obits every day.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. It's as if the spirit of Karl Pilkington has entered into the minds of certain posters on this thread. It's a riot.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. I prefer to remember him for: --Horror of Dracula (Christopher Lee's first as the Count!) --Horrors of the Black Museum --Konga --The Phantom of the Opera (Hammer's version) --Black Zoo --Dr. Terror's House of Horrors --The Skull --They Came from Beyond Space --Curse of the Crimson Altar --Trog (Joan Crawford!) --The Legend of Hell House
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. I think this thread needs to be deleted, and individual threads be used in its place. I am strongly opposed to this Goodsportization of yet another forum.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. Nah, keep the thread. It'll be needed when Charlie Sheen kicks the bucket.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. Then make a thread called "Charlie Sheen kicks the bucket" and people will know what is in the thread. This stupid thread is so general that you have to read it to find out whether you want to read it or not.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. I object to the use of an R I cannot believe a mod actually added one. Who is stupid and childish enough to care not to know who died. Unbelievable! !! Also I agree individual threads are best or create a sub forum for obituaries.
Re: Famous person is dead. R.I.P. The premise is pretty simple: this is a thread for lesser-known celebrity deaths. We don't need a bunch of 3 post threads about celebrities no one's heard of. That wastes bandwidth. If you see this thread get bumped, you'll know an obscure celeb has passed. Then you click to see who it was.
