    The search bar at the top of the site is also super effective.

  • Nooooooo!!
  • I actually know who that is. Don't do drugs, kids.
  • That sucks. He was such a great Plutarch Heavensbee in Catching Fire. I wonder who will replace him in Mockingjay.
  • To me, he will always be Grant from the Big Lebowski.
  • I didn't even know he was only 46...holy shit.

    With the first part being in post-production I am curious how they will handle it.

    Not sure how well known he is outside of my circle, but Keith Allen died yesterday. He was the first head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers and the general manager of the team between 1969 and 1983, overseeing the Broad Street Bullies era, two Stanley Cup victories and two other appearances in the finals. He also earned himself the nickname "The Thief" for his shrewd trades. He also has his name on the Cup as a player, having played in the 53-54 playoffs in Detroit, though he only played 10 regular season games that year and 28 games total (about half a season at the time).

    That's probably true, once everyone other than Dan Akroyd still alive to oppose it dies off.

    The last Ghostbuster vs. the last Beatle. FIGHT!
  • I predict there will be a Ghostbusters sequel. It will happen when CG character technology gets to the point that they can recreate all of the original cast without needing human actors.

    Or, there will be a horrible prequel about Zuul.

    When we have that technology there will be sequels and prequels of EVERYTHING.
