God is too busy with his beetle collection to notice it seems.

[-] dingleberrylover@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

This movie is never mentioned anywhere on the news, but I really enjoyed Congo with him.

The wrong fucking 80 year old AGAIN!

[-] jj4211@lemmy.world 49 points 1 day ago

First an 80 year old celebrity... Dammit not Dolly Parton Ok fine, a well known 80 year old who is in home alone 2 at the plaza hotel... dammit, not Tim curry... Another 80 year old who was in home alone 2 at the plaza hotel maybe?

They can take Rob Schneider.

The dude's so lucky that Adam Sandler likes to maintain an entourage of pseudo-talent. In any other universe he would've been working an endless string of dead-end jobs the moment he left SNL.

Third time lucky!

ALL THE WRONG 80 YEAR OLDS ARE DYING.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 27 points 1 day ago

They die in threes, so there's still hope. 🤞🏽

[-] Toothy@lemmus.org 17 points 1 day ago

May the third be an orange turd.

[-] romulator37@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

It unfortunately struck the wrong person again, RIP Peter Cullen

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 116 points 1 day ago

Tim Curry, Star. I don't know where I saw it but my favorite quote about him:

"Tim Curry was in a lot of one star films but he was the reason those films had that star."

[-] Ariselas@piefed.ca 27 points 1 day ago

he was pretty fantastic and epically creepy in Lexx

To be fair, the man had pretty serious health issues. He suffered a massive stroke years ago and hasn't been able to fully recover from it. What a terrible day.

[-] TheStaffmaster@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Death. Bud. I swear if the next one you pick off is Mel Brooks we'll all pray to send the Doom Slayer and Chuck Norris after your psycopompous ass...

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

You couldn’t name drop Steven Seagal instead?

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

Shut your whore mouth.

[-] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 37 points 1 day ago

Okay...hear me out on this.

What if...every time the grim reaper comes for Donald Trump, he bribes him into taking a different Home Alone 2 Co-star until none are left.

August 25th, 2026 took more than its fair share, honestly.

[-] Astrealix@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago

He's gone to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism.

It's sad but he's been in pretty bad health for a while now so it's not exactly surprising.
