“You ain’t getting a rematch” “I don’t want one.”
Love that line. Sad to see him go.

RIP Carl Weathers.
Arrested Development was my first thought as well. Also great as Combat Carl in the Toy Story series.

Not so famous, but Johnny Irwin from A Place In The Sun has apparently died. He had a brain tumour or some other terminal illness.
My missus is a bit upset. It's been her favourite "feet up, brain off" show for years.

RIP Carl Weathers. Arrested Development was my first thought as well. Also great as Combat Carl in the Toy Story series. When he was on stage at Star Wars Celebration last year, he was clearly having an incredible time, just loving every minute of being there and truly appreciative of the fan response.

Really sad about Carl Weathers. An icon. I loved it when he showed up in Mando, playing a great character with a lot of verve and conviction. Massive shame.

He also cracked me up in Happy Gilmore, let's not forget that seminal role 😆

Whenever a celebrity dies, everyone else should ask "where's Freddie?"

RIP Carl. Played some damn iconic characters. Not bad for a former NFL player.

A helluva band. RIP Wayne.

It probably speaks to how internet poisoned my mind used to be that Carl Weathers still reminds me of all the Kony2012 stuff and how people would troll the ones sharing the Kony posts by repurposing them but with pictures of Karl Weather inserted instead.

Pretty cut up about Carl Weathers.
What's interesting is I think most of us are all ancient and remember him from Predator or Rocky, but I think his death is going to hit home for youngsters who love him in Mando. And I think it's going to be one of those things where, for kids with an interest in film, they'll read articles online about how this actor they love from Star Wars has died, and these articles will mention all his other stuff, and the youngsters might have their interest piqued and want to see what Greef Karga got up to earlier in his career.
Actors can be immortal like that.

RIP Apollo, you will be missed greatly and thanks for some of my best memories in movies.
I’m going to watch Action Jackson this weekend in tribute.

It's been her favourite "feet up, brain off" show for years. Saw this this morning, you’d only be aware really on those sick days watching crap daytime telly as he seemed to exclusively occupy that space. Sad. Boy, 50 is no a…. no, no, I can’t.

Excuse me, is this the Celebrity Non-death Thread? /j (all joking aside, I fully agree with her motive, but faking your death -even for a noble cause-... I dunno, feels like it would have the opposite effect, at least with some people)

This can only mean that Chris/Dale has given up his dream of being a games journalist and is the head of her PR team now.

Sorry, I meant putting attention towards cervical cancer because obviously no one is aware of it. No one. Just like all the other cancers. What a brave noble soul she is.
