Bernie Mac is dead
Comedian Bernie Mac dead at 50.
This blows, I always thought he was a pretty funny guy. Didn't see it coming.

I never found him very funny, but this is sad news.

Jeez, I had no idea he was 50. I wasn't too big on his stand up, but I liked his show most of the time.

Not a fan of his work, but rest in peace, Bernie.

Just saw this on my main web page, and this came as bit of a shock. I've always liked him. Kind of sad. RIP Bernie.

Mmm, it is sad. I'd been reading news on him after hearing he was sick, keeping up with it. They just said yesterday and the day before that he was responding to treatment, so it's very sad that he took a bad turn.
RIP Bernie; my thoughts are with his family, friends and fans.

Oy. He was one of my faves. I too had been watching the going's on with him and his pneumonia. 50 is just too young. Man he was truly a king of comedy.
Now everyone's gonna be off watching Madagascar II and Soul Men. The plot of Soul Men is now Ironic. "Two former backup soul singers (Samuel L. Jackson and Bernie Mac) who haven't spoken to each other in 20 years reluctantly agree to travel cross country together to a reunion concert to honor their recently deceased band member" There's just too many movies I wanna see in November!

That's horrible. Completely took me by surprise, too. I liked Mac. His stand-up was great and his show was entertaining. I'll miss him. RIP, Bernie. Make the angels laugh.

"Bad Santa" is one helluva funny movie....and Bernie did a great job in that one. His dialogue with Marcus was golden.
RIP.

I always found his humor refreshing. I feel sorry for his loved ones. I'll never watch Original Kings of Comedy or "transformers" the same way again.
RIP Bernie Mac

Well i never really saw too much of is stuff, but news like this is always upsetting. At least he's in heaven, as I always like to look at it. Gosh how many more young celebrities could we lose this year? Ok 50's not that young, but not too old.

I was looking at movies coming out next year and it looks like Bernie's got one out in April so "Soul Men" isn't his last.
The movie is called "Old Dogs" and stars Bernie Mac, John Travolta, and Robin Williams. Quote:
