2008 really WAS a terrible year for actors. I'm mad, though, that they haven't posted anything on here about Eartha Kitt's passing.
I am pretty shocked.
all I got to say is ... rest in peace
:(
One person I would like to hear from is Michael Gough, who played Alfred in the Burton-Schumacher series, and he's still kicking at 95, God bless him.
I never actually knew Travolta was a scientoligist until yesterday, i knew Cruise was one.
But has anyone else notice the pattern that bang at the beginning of the year a celebrity dies.
This year, Jett & Pat, Last year was Ledger
That's just weird, watching the last performance of a man the same day he dies.
R.I.P
Both Pat Hingle & Jett Travolta
And duh, Oldman was better lol Not the point
