    Omar Sharif, super actor and could take to anything. I never knew, however, he could do comedy until I watched Top Secret. He was excellent in his, too small, part....

    Satoru Iwata, long-time president of Nintendo of Japan, passed away July 11 at age 55. He led Nintendo through ups and downs, and upheld the family friendly image the company provides - which is a rarity among games as a whole. RIP Mr. Iwata - I will miss you.

    Hiroshi Yamauchi whas producer of the 80's/90's Nitendo, who past a way in 2013. Satoru Iwata was his follow up since 2013. But stil 55 years old is very young and you can see him as Barbara Broccoli of Nitendo. He created the Nintendo GameCube, the follow up of the N64.

    Very sad to learn of the passing of Satoru Iwata- he oversaw the successes of two of the greatest consoles ever in the Nintendo DS and Wii.

    Rest in peace Mr. Iwata. This was one of his final contributions to the industry for E3 this year.

    RIP Aubrey Morris: http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/jul/16/aubrey-morris

    He played Mr. Deltoid in A Clockwork Orange.

    Small role, but what memorable scenes:

    Formula One racing driver Jules Bianchi has succombed to his injuries sustained during the Japanese Grand Prix 9 months ago. He was in the coma since then.

    He is the first driver to die resulting of a crash during a Grand Prix weekend since Ayrton Senna in 1994.

    RIP Alex Rocco, the actor who played Moe Greene from the first Godfather. Especially weird thing is that I watched the Godfather the same day he died (July 18), unknowing of what happened since it wasn't announced until the 19th.

    Sad to hear of the death (aged 84) of the author, editor and professor E.L. Doctorow. He was Ian Fleming's American editor towards the end of the Bond novels.

    Sad also to read of the death of the actor Theodore Bikel (aged 91) - he was a great villain in the Columbo episode The Bye-Bye Sky High I.Q. Murder Case. He was also down to play Goldfinger and his screen tests are on the UE DVD.

    Doctorow was a good writer of his own, too.

    Rest in peace Hot Rod, a true legend. He was a big part of why WWE is what it is today. Have vivid memories of watching him face off against Hogan and Mr T at Wrestlemania 1 when very young. Have the match on DVD will watch it as well as They Live as tribute.
