I'm ready for this year to be over
Here's a great article about Ali
This moment in history made me cry; now that it's trending, it makes me smile and tear up:

@allegro Me too. I remember standing up in my living room, applauding and crying my eyes out.
The Greatest Of All Time.
Rest in peace, sir.
It isn’t the mountains ahead to climb that wear you out; it’s the pebble in your shoe.
How Paul Simon broke the news of Ali's death to his audience at a show last night...
Sorry for the double-post but... shit.... Kimbo Slice at 42: http://www.12up.com/posts/3301303-br...ld?a_aid=40219
Yeah, heart failure at 42. Damn.

Anton Yelchin

Fuck, Set Adrift on Memory Bliss is such a money song...brings back memories. And now Anton Yelchin too? This thread is just gonna be near the top of this section for the rest of the year I take it...Fuckssakes.
I saw the news about Anton Yelchin on the imdb front page and for a good minute, it was like I didn't understand English any longer. That how much my brain did not want to accept what it was seeing.
I've seen several of this young man's movies (beside s Star Trek). He was very talented and had such a great career ahead of him.
RIP Anton, you'll be sorely missed.
Oh and by the way: FUCK YOU, 2016.
The way he died.... what the fuck? And at 27 when he was already becoming one of the finest working today with so much more to come. Seriously, fuck 2016.
Anton. Dude.
Fuck, that's terrible. I love Middle of Nowhere and Odd Thomas and was always looking forward to see his new movies. I think I was a fan of his, but I never realized or acknowledged it anywhere and now I feel kinda bad about it. This is very strange. I'm going to miss him a lot.
Yep. Fuck You 2016 continues. Yelchin was a good actor who I most recently saw in Green Room (check it out if you didn't see it yet).
Anton Yelchin was FUCKING AWESOME in Terminator: Salvation, Star Trek, and Green Room.
I'd be lying if I didn't admit that I watched Star Trek Into Darkness (LOVED IT) the day he died yet didn't realize it till today.
Can't believe he died the way he did, it must be especially bizarre for the director of the Fast & Furious movies who just switched over to Star Trek.
Also, OMF PLZ NO SELMA BLAIR.

Parliament-Funkadelic keyboardist Bernie Worrell at age 72: http://ultimateclassicrock.com/bernie-worrell-dies/
I just watched Ricki and the Flash yesterday as he was in the film as Meryl Streep's keyboard player. If anyone here hasn't seen Stop Making Sense, you're missing one of the best concert films ever. Worrell's presence on the keys alone is just incredible. Thank you funk-man.
Bud Spencer
Not sure if you guys in the States have even heard of him. Many of us in Europe grew up with his movies. It hurts.

2016 will be looked back on as Death Year, I think.
