Petition to start this year from scratch.

Going to miss him and his iconic voice. RIP.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Cancer as well...

Why a spoon, cousin? Why not an axe?

 

[MrPryck2U]

Oh my goodness! This sucks! I loved him. RIP. He was awesome in almost everything he did.

 

[Hewson]

Sad news.

RIP

RIP

But seriously though, this guy:

 

[prbiker15]

Ugh, this really sucks. Rest in peace.

 

[Hewson]

Loved him in Dogma:

 

[U2girl]

Hans Gruber. To this day one of the best villains in an action movie, and his best role. RIP.

 

[Rusalka]

Shit! Not Rickman too.
I loved the guy.

aw, maaaannnn



Helen Mirren had a lovely tribute on NPR

 

[cobl04]

Only knew him as Snape really, but very sad. Spooky that it was also cancer and he was also 69.

If you haven't seen Die Hard, I have no idea what you've been doing with your life. Isn't that some sort of prerequisite for being male, in the first place?

 

[nbelcik]

I grew up with the Harry Potter movies, I believe the first one came out when I was 6 and the last one came out when I was 16. I loved Rickman's portrayal of Snape. He was a huge part of why those movies were great. This week fucking sucks

Cobbler's probably only seen Die Hard 4 and 5.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Why couldn't it have just been Cobbler who died?

Yes it greatly bothers my male friends. I will actively try to see it soon.

It's a legitimately awesome movie. Possibly the best action movie ever made. It's fun, but it never feels like stupid fun. Great dialogue, fantastic acting, a plot that doesn't feel meaningless, and doesn't flip through too many twists and turns. None of the problems, really, that a lot if action films run into.

 

[LemonMelon]

Nations could be united over Die Hard. Who the fuck doesn't like that movie?

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Dear Die Hard: You rock, especially when that guy was on the roof.

Oh cool, I'll chase it down then. For some reason I had it in my head that it would be a brutal, excessively violent action movie that wasn't much fun.

 

[bono_212]

Oh it's violent, but it's a ton of fun.

 

[cobl04]

No problem with violence as long as it doesn't sacrifice fun. I'm sure I'll be pilloried for this but that's why I like Pulp Fiction but not Reservoir Dogs.
