Rest In Peace, show your respects to those who have passed away.

I don't know how true this may or may not be, but there is a internet article from today stating that Dutch actor Jeroen Krabbé, known to us as General Koskov of TLD, was allegedly killed in a snowboarding accident in Switzerland. Here is a link to the article. I hope it's not true-

Appears that it may be a repeat of a twitter hoax http://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=nl&u=http://www.datditkaninnederland.nl/laatste-nieuws/hoax-op-twitter-jeroen-krabbe-overleden&prev=/search%3Fq%3Djeroen%2Bkrabbe%2Bzermatt%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Doff%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26hs%3DdR4%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26prmd%3Dimvnso&sa=X&ei=uFJnUMLMEIOr0QW-_4DACQ&ved=0CDIQ7gEwAg

Oh, god. Please don't be true! [-O<

4EverBonded

I sincerely hope not! Can anyone verify, please?

SirHenryLeeChaChing

If we have a Dutch member here, they may be able to tell us what their news reports are saying about this. None of us want this to be true, but internet reports as we all know can be unreliable and hopefully this is the case.

Sandy

I hope this isn't true :(

I just remembered I have dutch tv, I'll check it now.

Master_Dahark

I call BS-- I could have sworn I heard this months ago.

*Edit- yes I just clicked @Thepastykid 's link- that's what I saw before (2010). He's fine; people are just assholes stirring up stuff

Sandy

Nothing on dutch TV, I'm also calling it BS (thankfully).

Rest in peace to Ron Taylor, shark photographer and conservationist. He provided the fabulous live Great White footage for Jaws.

Baltimore_007

Jaws was a Universal picture release if I remember when it was introduced in theaters in 1975, anyone who's seen it, may know what an inappropriate classification that was, not a movie for everyone..

Never mind that - today we said goodbye, to Rebel without a Cause - Mr James Dean, he was only 24 years old when we lost him - today in 1955. Far too young, and such a waste of a promising actor. RIP Mr Dean

Flaming mongrels......someone claimed recently that John Cena fell off a cliff (a rehashed rumor that started with Jeff Goldblum I assume)

The original and best Superman! RIP

Not quite the original Superman, there were a few before him and some quite succesfull.

Indeed. There is a lot of silent age Batman, so was there silent age Superman?

there was never a silent age superman nor batman so be silent.

there was George Reeves (1914–1959) as Superman for 6 years (52-58) available on dvd!

and Kirk Alyn (1910–1999) as Superman in 2 serials after the war.

Don't forget Bud Collyer (1908-69), who played Superman on radio, theatrical cartoons released by Paramount (1941-43) and again on television cartoons (1966-69). He hosted the U.S. television game show To Tell The Truth, which ran in prime time from 1956-67). On one occasion, there was a real-life spy on that show:

Just heard about the demise of movie director Claude Pinoteau. Among (numerous) other films, he had directed La Boum, which revealed a young actress you may have heard of: Sophie Marceau.

Dutch actress Sylvia Kristel, best known for playing the eponymous character of the erotic movie Emmanuelle, a few of its sequels, and the TV movies where she shared the spotlight with Georges Lazenby, passed away this night at the age of 60, from cancer.

That's a part of my teenage years that's gone away. Although I didn't watch the movie until later, I certainly heard about it (and saw the world-famous ad) back then in the 70s.

No way?!! RIP Sylvia Kristel! You left us with some great memories.

MajorDSmythe

I've never seen the original Emmanuelle, though I have crossed paths with the 90's Krista Allen films. :-\"

R.I.P Sylvia

TheWizardOfIce

Cheers Sylvia - I'm sure I'm not the only one who took their first tentative adolescent fumblings
in front of her films.
In the days before the internet she ruled for teenage boys.

Georges Chaulet, creator of Fantômette, passed away last week, at the age of 81. One big part of my childhood who has disappeared.

No way! I grew up watching this charming man, especially Dad's Army which is still shown regularly. You will be missed! RIP.

myworldisenough

RIP Clive Dunn. Jones was his fantastic character in Dads Army. His slapstick style was expertly done and he so brilliantly portrayed an old man when he was still relatively young. He shout of 'Dont panic' always made me smile.

Damn. He was in the newer Dallas show too, a shame. The show will be in a tough spot. My sympathies with the family and friends of Larry.

Gerard

I just couldn't resist saying my condolences to a co-worker whose parents named John Ross (I'm not kidding ! They were probably big fans of the series). He took it in the spirit it was intended (as a harmless johke).

This said, Dallas is not the only thing he has done. He was also very good in I Dream of Jeanie and SOB.

Tracy

The cancer and the struggles with his wife is what killed JR in the end :(

"Man has got to know his limitations"......truer words were never spoken :(

RIP JR! You are the iconic TV villain from my childhood!
