Only two weeks in and I have to say that 2016 sucks pretty hard so far.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4 on:** January 14, 2016, 05:52:40 AM »

Wow... another shocker.

Robin Hood, Die Hard, Dogma, Rasputin, and of course Harry Potter. Not to mention, the voice of Absolem. I'm sure there are plenty of others I forgot.

Not off to a great start.

Didn't know the name, but then I saw it was Hans Gruber.

RIP.

He was amazing in Galaxy Quest.

And a career defining Sheriff of Nottingham in Prince of Thieves.

DAMN. How did I not make the connection? (well maybe the prosthetics).

Ironically - his character in Galaxy Quest was called Lazarus.

So many great lines in that movie.

Even as the bad guy you root for him because he's awesome.

Phoenix87x · « **Reply #13 on:** January 14, 2016, 06:08:42 AM »

Wow.

Lemmy, Bowie and then Rickman. Damn. Both bowie and Rickman were 69 and Lemmy died 4 days after he turned 70.

Rickman was awesome.

TempusVox · « **Reply #14 on:** January 14, 2016, 06:10:14 AM »

Very sad. He was one of my favorite actors. RIP.

Professor Albus Dumbledore: "Lily... after all this time?"
Professor Severus Snape: "Always."

I can't say I knew a lot of his acting background, but goddamn, Snape was by far the most moving character in any movie I've ever seen, what a heartbreaking performance in the last movie, and you can't help but agree with his every move and feeling in the whole series after seeing it.

R.I.P.

kaos2900 · « **Reply #17 on:** January 14, 2016, 06:26:24 AM »

Damn, he was an incredible actor. Snape was my favorite but he was also great in all of the other movies listed so far. I also loved him Sweeny Todd.

RIP

really shocking news... thanks for all your great interpretations, there could be no better Snape. RIP Alan Rickman

hefdaddy42 · « **Reply #27 on:** January 14, 2016, 08:03:18 AM »

He's done a lot of great roles.

Kind of shame that many people will remember him only as Snape (although admittedly he was fantastic in that role - I don't think anyone else could have played it as well).

Don't forget Marvin; strangely a rather similar character to Metatron.

I've actually watched Die Hard and THGttG in the last two weeks. One great move and one piece of shit, but both great roles for him.

It's not so much the line itself as the way he delivered it; his diction and enunciation.

Cancer touches all of us in some way.

Well damn. Thank you Alan for all the hard work and memorable roles over the years. I just finished reading the Harry Potter series, and ordered the BluRay collection. Will enjoy watching that once it comes in.
