    Back in the '80s, that woman was so gorgeous it was just unbelievable. She was walking perfection, IMO.

    Terry Pratchett's philosophy is the closest thing I've ever come to as a religion and it's inspired a lot of my original comic.

RIP to the legend.” Others, like Aesop Rock, Steve Aoki, and El-P, have chimed in with condolences.

    Aww man. I have been catching up with Deadwood (still have to see the HBO movie) and I was lookin' at Powers Boothe and thinkin', dude has been around in movies all of my life, way back I used to get Hauer and Boothe crossed. Freakin' kids today have no real idea of what a really dope 'B'-movie is. RIP.

    Me and my brother rented Blind Fury from the video store and we ate that shit up. The scene in Batman Begins where he has that glass and looks at 'Bruce' and says "You look like him, your Dad." Such a passing line but I love that scene, that's what I always remember him from. Yea, yea Blade Runner, sometimes it's the little roles, that's too bad. In Jackie Brown Sam Jackson looked at the TV and said "Is that Rutger Hauer?" Briget Fonda goes, "no that's Helmut Berger." Lol, I love that line. That's to bad. RIP.

    This is just...sad.
    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    When I was a kid back in the '70s, the two sports book we kids had to read wereThe Boys of Summer and Brian's Song. Sayers was a hero in the latter book and an icon of integration for my generation. Of course, he was an outstanding football player who appeared to shake off tacklers at will.

    RIP

    One of the great running backs in the NFL. When looking at his obituary, I forgot how he was both a halfback and return specialist. RIP Mr Sayers
