I considered if he rated his own thread, but probably not.

But RIP to Louis Gossette Jr, who was in a good number of great films back in the day.

Got an oscar for this outstanding role in Officer and a Gentleman

Underrated classic sci-fi Enemy Mine

and perpetual early cable rerun fodder Iron Eagle

and COUNTLESS others.

It's been a HELL of a year for black actors, damn.

Whatever movie he was in, he classed up the joint. He'll be missed.

Jackie Chan let it slip that Corey Yuen died and has since been confirmed it was due to Covid two years ago. Crazy it took two years to leak out on accident even if it was at the request of his family. One of the best action directors ever IMO. R.I.P.

Nurse Ogawa from Star Trek TNG passed away last week. She was 70. Cancer sucks!

Another "Died Suddenly".

Sometimes it amazes me how domesticated we are that people are told that their pattern recognition is not pattern recognition.
