Who will be the next celebrity or famous person to die?

[CyberCubed]

All the oldies from the 80's and 90's are on death's door and most of them are dying one after the other. Within the next 5-10 years most of the iconic famous people of our youth will be gone. Who will be next? All of the below are close to being on their last legs:

Clint Eastwood
Al Pacino
Robert De Niro
Jack Nickolson
Arnold Scwarzeneggar
Harrison Ford
William Shatner

I'm honestly surprised some of them have not kicked the bucket yet.

[ToTheNines]

Bhad Bhabie and Elon.

[sdp]

Peter Laird
Britney Spears
Mark Hamill

[FredWolfLeonardo]

I think Trump doesn't have too much steam left. The stress is eating him alive.

[neatoman]

From the 80's and 90's? Well, let's see here... Does Steven Seagal count or do they have to be famous enough to not resort to groveling at the feet of literal dictators to make a living?

[triplexxx]

Where does everyone get the idea that "dead pool" games are fun?

[oldmanwinters]

I feel like this is one of those contexts where the phrase: "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" applies.

[Mad Dog McMutt]

I am going to go with Chuck Norris.

I just realized today that Mr. T is still alive. Weird, I thought he died years ago.

Both Ozzy and Hogan were WWE Hall of Famers and celeb deaths usually seem to happen in Threes. Other WWE Hall of Famers

Mr T (as previously mentioned, thought he died years ago.
Ric Flair (seems too obvious, but has lived a wildlife)
Jesse the Body Venture (the Deep state got him in the end)

Honestly almost any wrestler really.

William Shatner (he's up there in age)
Donald Trump (lots of speculation about his health recently)
Arnold Schwarzenegger (nah, not the Terminator).
Iron Mike Tyson (maybe after a rematch with Logan/Jake Paul)

I thought Stallone was in the WWE HoF, I think he just inducted Hogan.

This forum has the most death threads of any I know of.

Tell people to stop ****ing dying. No one gave Hogan permission to die.

It's because now that we're all old, we're basically the same age all these actors were when we were kids. So now that it's 20+ years later, all these actors are now even older and almost every single one of them are in their late 60's or 70's. That's why almost all the famous people from the 1960's-1990's are dying one after the other.

I mean I realized the other day I am now older than most of my favorite actors were when they were in their prime in their biggest TV shows or movies. So if *we're* all old now, than they are all naturally 20+ years older and in their twilight years.

[CyberCubed]

Damn, it's crazy how many more deaths we had since I made this thread.

Sam Neill being the biggest as everyone watched Jurassic Park.

There was a user on IGN Boards who used to make a thread like this every single year. Were you inspired by him? :lol:

Huh? I didn't know he was still alive either. TIL.

It's not because of that. Death threads were already a thing when I joined in 2009 and we were all 18-25 at the time still. Current Events initially became an obituary because political threads were banned for years. You had to access the Volcanic Asteroid in order to open such threads. So what else was there to post on Current Events besides public figures' deaths? And the "tradition" just never went away, despite the fact we've been allowed to open political threads for some years now.

I am going to go with Chuck Norris.

Man, good prediction. He just died in March of this year.

It's weird to think in about 5-10 years from now, almost all the big famous actors of the 80's and 90's will be gone. The young Gen-Z kids of today know nothing about them.

Not that shocking to me. When I was a kid, people like Stallone, Arnold, Clint Eastwood, William Shatner, etc. were already old for me.

I'm more "bummed" by the fact that Scarlett Johansson, Leonardo Dicaprio, Daniel Radcliffe and others are either pushing middle age by now or already quite deep into it. Dicaprio is 51 years old at this point. I remember when he was still a pretty boy that stole the hearts of most of the girls I went to school with :lol:

[CyberCubed]

Well now we know. :(

My guesses for next:

Ian Mckellen.

Clint Eastwood

Morgan Freeman

William Shatner

Jack Nicholson

[ToTheNines]

It will be Michael Caine.

[Stu_Padasso]

Bruce Willis. End of life dementia care from what I understand.

Ellen/Elliot Page. Sacrificed to Moloch by people around her.

[sdp]

Amanda Bynes
Christina Aguilera
Ashley Olsen

[Andrew NDB]

Michael Caine is a good guess.

Shatner probably at SOME point in 2027.

Dick Van Dyke.

[TylerD]

Bruce Willis. End of life dementia care from what I understand.

Ellen/Elliot Page. Sacrificed to Moloch by people around her.

Damn. Only a matter of time for Bruce. Brutal sad

[IMJ]

There are only a handful of big dogs from the Gen X Generation of stars left. Harrison Ford, Stallone, Schwarzenegger. Willis is still around but society has been lamenting his demise for years now.

Guys like Jack Nicholson are around but he, almost wisely, removed himself from the limelight years ago.

Tom Cruise might outlive all of us.

[Xav]

Aren't those mostly Boomer stars and not Gen X?

[CyberCubed]

Most of the big stars from the 70's are still with us. Robert De Niro and Al Pacino are still alive. Same for Christopher Walken, Dustin Hoffman, Clint Eastwood, John Travolta, etc.

[Mad Dog McMutt]

I got it right last year with Chuck Norris. I don't even remember commenting that. Let's see if I can guess another one. I am going to go with Ian McKellen this time.

[Barkworm]

I heard that people die, is that accurate?

[frank_one]

I heard that people die, is that accurate?And no one has ever come back, as far as I know.

[triplexxx]

I've heard that people that spend all or most of their time thinking about death are, in a sense, already dead.

[ZariusTwo]

I heard that people die

When they are killed, correct

[IMJ]

Aren't those mostly Boomer stars and not Gen X?

Sure, but my point is that those are the stars that were Gen X heroes while we watched them! 8)

I heard that people die, is that accurate?

So far the track record for that is pretty solid.

[ToTheNines]

Amanda Bynes
Christina Aguilera
Ashley Olsen

Just keep your damn hands off Mary Kate.

[CyberCubed]

Also the actor who played Mike on Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul probably is going to go in the next few years too. He's going to be another hard one.

[Jester]

And remember folks, if you didn't agree with the politics of the deceased then no one wants your tributes. The deceased hated you, what you stand for, and probably your children.

Whatever happened to separating art from artist?

I figured I'd share what I learned from Wil Wheaton...:trolleye:

I heard that there was a Jewish carpenter that came back from the dead a long time ago. Nice guy who got screwed over by the government, apparently.

Had the same name as the guy who details my car. Weird. Maybe they’re related.

That dude was a goddamn communist. Hated the rich and stuff.

[IMJ]

That dude was a goddamn communist. Hated the rich and stuff.

He was definitely into centralized power though.... that's for sure.

[CyberCubed]

It's a shame also there's not many new iconic young actors to take the place of all these older actors that keep dying off. It's probably due to the fact that movies/TV streaming etc. is so much now, but there's hardly any new "young" iconic actors I can think about.

Tom Holland got lucky cast as Spider-man, but other than him? Even ones like Ryan Gosling are in their 40's now and he was "young." Leonardo Di Caprio and Matt Damon are over 50+ now. Same for Will Smith and Johnny Depp, all the ones who were young in the 90's are now old as hell too.

Also forgot about Tommy Lee Jones, he literally looks like his face is melting now.

[sdp]

we don't have mega actors anymore, since without tv, there's no longer a mono culture, people in the future will mourn the death of their favorite eceleebs and influencers, and it's not like they're young either. Look at James Rolfe the AVGN, or that nostalgia critic guy, and Felicia Day. They all look like grandpas and grandma's now. by the 2040s which seems far away but is basically a little over ten years away they're going to start dropping like flies as well.

Fate is already catching up to all the big 90s celebs. The ones from the 2000s will be on the list too.

Happy halloween, cheers!

[ToTheNines]

I will be devastated when Clavicular dies

[IMJ]

Ehh....
There are few "younger generation" doing well.

Miles Teller is watchable.
Anya Taylor-Joy is definitely a star and cutting her own path through movies.
Bill Pullman's kid shows up in stuff, and so does Kurt Russel's kid and they are sort of "accepted".
Michael B. Jordan has had a real career so far.

Margo Robbie is clearly a superstar and has had a great career.

But I think it can be easily argued that seeing a movie for the sake of the "movie star" is LONG GONE. it used to be "oh the new Schwarzenegger flick looks great!" and so on.... "Will Smith's next one is biopic!". That's done.

[frank_one]

I'm sure there are a lot of new young actors doing great out there. It's just us getting older so much that we don't care or give credit to anyone younger than us.

[CyberCubed]

I mean Margot Robbie is 36. Michael B Jordan is 39, they're both pushing 40.

And either way, they don't feel like the huge breakout stars of the 80's and 90's as you've said. Actors just don't get that "huge popularity" anymore where everyone is talking about them.

Even TV actors, look at Sarah Michelle Gellar or the X-files actors, where have we seen actors on TV shows get that mainstream worldwide popularity?

[Barkworm]

I don‘t think that‘s what he was talking about. Until maybe 20 years ago, people would go see films because of that one person in it. I remember back in the 90s when a new Stallone or Schwarzenegger film was out, people wanted to go because of those guys, not necessarily because they liked the concept of the film. Are there any actors like that anymore?

Right.

And no... i mean even Downey Jr. who is considered the modern auteur-actor can't sell tickets unless he's in an Iron Man movie or a Christopher Nolan ensemble.
