RIP Carl Reiner. I was just watching him last night on AMC's Ocean's marathon.

Mel Brooks and Carl had a chance to get together one last time, for Mel's 94th birthday. I love this picture.

Your Show Of Shows was perhaps the greatest assembly of writing and performing comedy talent in the history of entertainment, and Reiner was a stand out.

Oh man...I've done it again. Sorry Carl.

He seemed to be perfectly fine two days ago when he was with Mel, but I guess that's how quickly things can go south at that age. RIP.

Man, that sucks re: Danny Hicks. I donated to his GoFundMe and he'd said 1-4 years, but when I saw recent pics I figured that was never going to happen. Still, I think it was less than a month since he was diagnosed.

i was trying to remember the last celebrity I mentioned as seeming to be doing well that died like the next day after my post. Who was it?

That one has freaked me out for a while. 41, fit, no preexisting conditions. Absolutely terrifying.

dude lost a leg had multiple mini-strokes, and died from other complications. Brutal way to go.

Post by **blackjack68** » Sun Jul 05, 2020 10:55 pm

Only 41 and otherwise healthy. Scary for sure.

Sucks... One of my favorite film composers no doubt. Gabriel's Oboe... So good.

dammit

My second favorite film score composer ever behind Williams. Ennio’s scores are immediately recognizable and add so much flavor to the films they’re in

Gonna rewatch TGTBATU this week in honor of him
