This forum has more death threads than any forum I've ever been part of in my life.

It's because all the actors we grew up with as kids/teens are now old since we're all old. The next 10 years will be rough when the likes of Harrison Ford, Arnold Schwarzeneggar, Patrick Stewart, etc. all kick the bucket.

We're going to lose a lot of legends soon.

Either that or that it's what savants do. "SOMEONE died and I should feel bad". It's like - it's some foreign movie star or so and so that no one KNOWS - I mean I'm sorry that anyone died, but wtf already?

Literally without exaggeration - more death threads in this f'n place than any social media I've been on for 25 years.

No argument there, but I wouldn't have posted this based on his British movie/television credentials, I only wished to point out he had done voice over work in the States for characters and shows that some (not necessarily everyone) may have been familiar with. That's all. Just "oh, one of those 'that guy' actors died'.

I tend to celebrate people's lives when they pass on and think of good times I spent watching or listening to them. I never feel 'sad' about it.
