RIP Alan Rickman
 
Alan Rickman has died :cry:

Quote:

British actor Alan Rickman, famous for roles in Harry Potter and Love Actually, has died at the age of 69, his family has said.

The star won a BAFTA, Golden Globe, Emmy and Screen Actors Guild award in a career which began in the late 1970s.

However, he shot to stardom in 1988 when he played Hans Gruber, Bruce Willis's adversary, in Die Hard.

Rickman gained legions of new fans for his role as Professor Severus Snape in the Harry Potter films.

A family statement said: "The actor and director Alan Rickman has died from cancer at the age of 69. He was surrounded by family and friends."

Update: Whoops, double thread

F*ck Cancer.

We'll miss you, Alan.

By Grabthar's hammer, by the sons of Warbane, he will be remembered.

This is probably the first celebrity death since Robin Williams that has cut me deep. Not a lot of luck going for British celebrities the last few days...

Especially the ones that were 69.

I think I'm gonna cry. :ohwell:

ranger_scout 01-14-2016 10:17 AM

So very sad to hear this! :cry: I've seen him in so many movies. No one could have played the part of Professor Snape in Harry Potter better than him.

joefsas 01-14-2016 10:17 AM

That sucks...
A huge loss :(

Prowler 01-14-2016 10:33 AM

Even though Die Hard is awesome and I don't care much about Harry potter, Snape is an awesome character.

RIP

Aw damn. Not Snape! :tcry:

Utrommaniac 01-14-2016 11:00 AM

If we keep losing British celebrities at this rate...hide your Tom Bakers. I'm not so sure the internet would be able to take that.

Mayhem 01-14-2016 11:43 AM

I mean, seriously Death, what's with the recent spate of taking legendary British celebrities recently?! Can't you go after Hugh Hefner or something, he's far closer to death in general.

Why a spoon, cousin? Why not a knife?
BECAUSE IT WILL HURT MORE, YOU IDIOT!

It's not often in a career you get three iconic, never to be forgotten roles, but Rickman played Gruber, the Sheriff of Nottingham and Snape perfectly...

Whoever plays his character in the upcoming Galaxy Quest Amazon.com series is gonna have major shoes to fill... :cry:

At least we'll get to hear him on the big screen one more time this year as he's the Caterpillar in Alice, Through The Looking Glass.

Utrommaniac 01-14-2016 12:08 PM

There's a Galaxy Quest series coming on Amazon!?

How do we lose Lemmy Alan Rickman and David Bowie in the same month yet Bieber Kanye and The Kardashians are still alive. Can we trade them for the three we just lost.

RIP Snape.

Good job at sh*tting up this thread by acting like an edgy 13 tear-old.

Kanye, Kim kardashian and especially Bieber are still young. While cancer can strike people of any age, it's more likely to strike older people. And in Lemmy's case, he led quite a brutal lifestyle, so what's actually surprising is him having made into 70.

Utrommaniac 01-14-2016 12:23 PM

And oh, it's just just the same month, but the same week.

triplexxx 01-14-2016 12:46 PM

This is definitely a tough one to take I loved Alan's work his voice, his presence; he was most definitely a sight for sore eyes in the acting world, a lot of what he did will never be topped that's for sure; enjoy heaven Alan Rickman.

Wishing death on people makes you worse than all of them.

Sucks, man. I really like Rickman.

Couldn't have said it any better myself.

Klunk1234 01-19-2016 10:07 AM

Rest in peace Alan Rickman.

I don't like them either ( Bieber, West and the Kardashians) but I don't wish them to be dead. What you said is completely wrong.
