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

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.

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

Shredder could've done more than blow up the Channel Six building. I don't mean as far as murdering Splinter, but think of the possibilities if censors were not an issue.

Shredder and Krang combined had the biggest arsenal of any villains in all of the cartoons.

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?

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

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.

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.

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?

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 guess he doesn't qualify as African American to cubed because he doesn't say things like "yessa massa", "sup dawg", "yo", "kill whitey" and "shee-it negro!"

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
