2008: The Year of Dead Celebrities

[PedroSteckecilo]

Has anyone else noticed that we've basically had 1 fairly major celebrity death every month so far?

January: Heath Ledger
February: Roy Schieder (Jaws, Seaquest, The French Connection)
March: Arthur C. Clarke
April: Charlton Heston
May: Sydney Pollack
June: George Carlin, and a less high-profile one Stan Winston (SFX Guy for Jurassic Park and countless other films you loved as a kid)
July: Nobody major, but...
August: Isaac Hayes AND Bernie Mac, ya know, to make up for July.

So... who's gonna be Septembers I wonder? It's hard to predict since many of these have been pretty random.

I didn't know that Isaac Hayes died, I hope no-one else is going to die...

 

[Reasonable Doubt]

Alright when did Isaac die because I did not know that until now.

 

[AboveUp]

I think he died yesterday, Reasonable Doubt.

And yeah, I noticed it's been a year of deaths...

 

[AntiAntagonist]

You forgot Gary Gygax.

 

[Entharion]

We're doomed...

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

You forgot Gary Gygax.

Buggerall, you're right, blame Wikipedia. I was checking on there to make sure I got my months right and he wasn't listed.

 

[Ixus Illwrath]

After what he pulled on south park. May Isaac Hayes rot in hell. Or at the hands of Xenu.

Fuck that guy in his double-standard ass.

 

[cleverlymadeup]

and how is this different from any other year? it's the same thing as previous years

 

[electric discordian]

Hmm quick question were Bernie Mac and Issac Hayes by any chance contributers to the Obama camp? If so expect some juicy conspiracy theories sprouting up soon. Its pretty sad when anyone dies, so wishing anyone rots in Hell is pretty cold dont you think.

Although I always wanted to go somewhere warm for my holidays!

 

[Stalington]

Im outraged at the fact that you forgot Robert Lynn Asprin, although maybe an author isn't much of a celebrity so I'll let it go...

btw Tom Cruise, your next! *grabs a sniper rifle, heads out the door* I'll be back sept 18th XD

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

Robert Asprin died! Shit! I had no idea!

EDIT: Cleverly_Made_Up it's because we haven't had quite this many high profile deaths in awhile.

Fuck that guy in his double-standard ass.

Dude, that is way, way past uncalled for.

I agree, but everyone gets an opinion.

Isn't Paul Newman fighting a losing battle with cancer?

 

[ButtonedDownParadox]

I'm putting money on Rick Moranis. There tends to not be a pattern to these things...

Why Rick Moranis? From all indications he's fine.
