Darkon84 Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Sad day today, Alan Rickman passing away at the age of 69. Absolutely quality actor who will be missed. Think I'll have to be watching Die Hard later now. http://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/jan/14/alan-rickman-giant-of-british-film-and-theatre-dies-at-69
AmyLGK Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I'm actually crying a bit - I don't usually do that at the death of a celebrity. I've grown up with him, from watching him in Robin Hood with my dad, to in Die Hard with the husband, Love Actually every Christmas (or when I'm feeling down), and in Harry Potter with my little sisters.
EnderbyFox Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Was bloody terrified of Hans Gruber when I was younger, what a villain. RIP. Aaron Ramsey strikes again.
RobHawk Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Cancer, aged 69, much loved brit around the world. I can see a pattern forming! Loved him in Robin Hood! Great actor RIP
MC Prussian Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Another great British cultural icon dead at age 69 and that again of cancer. A terrific actor in his heyday and what a character.
leicsmac Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Terrible week. David Bowie dead at 69. Alan Rickman dead at 69. Donald Trump alive and on the campaign trail at 69. Where's the fvcking natural justice?
Finnegan Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Absolutely devastating. I've never really been particularly emotionally hit by celebrity deaths to be honest but Lemmy and now Rickman have both genuinely left me hollow. Absolutely loved the guy, so awful. ****ing cancer.
The Doctor Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 "Now I have a machine gun. Ho ho ho." - one of the best at playing villains I've ever seen. Definitely watching die hard again tonight.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Ultimate villain for me in Die hard and Robin Hood. Great actor rip
Darkon84 Posted 14 January 2016 Author Posted 14 January 2016 Ultimate villain for me in Die hard and Robin Hood. Great actor rip The spoon line was brilliant in Robin Hood, he played the shit out of the Sheriff of Nottingham https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhfuuKiTcYQ
Guest MattP Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Bowie and Rickman in a week, life isn't fair. Die Hard tonight I think.
Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 This is sad news, loved him as Hans Gruber - perfect role for him. RIP
Sharpe's Fox Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 That snideful voice was iconic. Everytime he was on the screen your eyes would just gravitate towards he was that much of a presence. RIP
The Blur Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 Saddened by the news, he was a charismatic and humorous fellow. I have attached a link of my favourite anecdote about him. While searching for that story, I came across another link which sum his personality up rather well- http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2015-08-28/12-times-alan-rickman-was-totally-un-snape-like RIP Alan Rickman
Finnegan Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 NO MORE MERCIFUL BEHEADINGS. AND CALL OFF CHRISTMAS!
Raw Dykes Posted 14 January 2016 Posted 14 January 2016 FFS. Lemmy, Bowie, and now Rickman. He was a great actor. Very sad news. He will be sorely missed.
