The Death Thread

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Neil Sedaka died in late Feb.

I missed that one. Heard a lot of his stuff growing up.

Mean Joe Green is NOT dead. There was a hoax earlier today.

Asha Bhosle - Indian singer who colab'ed with Boy George at some point.

Not super notable, but she's the person this song is about, if you've heard it.



Also, I named my pet rabbit Asha after her in the early 2000s.

I was unaware of that song and that band.

92 is a hell of a run.

I cannot recall if I heard the original or the Fat Boy Slim version first. But they are both awesome.

Patrick Muldoon.

Apparently, he was on TV shows, but I only know him from Starship Troopers.

Bobby Cox

Weird timing with former Atlanta Braves owner, Ted Turner, just dying.

Lauren Bennett dies at 36.

You might not know the name, but you probably know her from her very sexy cameo in the video below...

I forgot about that.

There's already a conspiracy theory that he died in Ukraine during a Russian air strike.

Sam Neill

A huge loss. Probably would be my "exhibit A" when discussing actors who should be household names. Everyone knows him, but his name would probably be unfamiliar. I never saw him give less than a stellar performance.

The world knows him as Dr. Alan Grant from Jurassic Park, but he was in a thousand other things.

I'd like to use this opportunity to remind everyone of Dead Calm (1989) which was just him and the debuting duo of Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane (another insanely underrated actor). Absolutely in my list of perfect films. 100% carried by the performances of its stars.
