    RIP Michael Gambon and Piper Laurie. Fantastic actors the both of them.

    My thoughts also go out to the two Swedish football fans, and their loved ones, who were murdered during a terrorist attack in Brussels last night.

    I heard the Belgium vs Sweden game was abandoned for the safety of everyone in the stadium, another mindless act of violence.

    Billie Piper is still alive, though it appears there was a hoax saying she was dead?

    My apologies, I mixed up names with Piper Laurie.

    Glad Billie is still with us then :)

    RIP Piper Laurie. I recall another actress saying Laurie never did what they expected when performing a scene. I do get that feeling from her wonderful performance in The Hustler. Nothing clichéd about it.

    I hate the character of Pauli -- that character is the reason why I don't watch Rocky nearly as often as I should -- but I love Burt Young. Saddened to learn he has passed away. RIP, Burt.

    I know he's beloved for his work in the Rocky series but he'll always be Bobby Sr. from The Sopranos to me. RIP, Mr. Young.

    Sad to hear of the death of Burt Young. I know him best from his appearance as the character Mo Weinburg in the atypical Columbo episode Undercover (1994). It was one of the two later Columbo episodes based on Ed McBain novels.

    One of the greatest character theme tunes ever, I love the scores to the Shaft films

    They say this cat Shaft is a bad mother...
    (Shut your mouth)
    I'm talkin' 'bout Shaft
    (Then we can dig it)


    Shaft in Africa Official Trailer #1 - Richard Roundtree Movie (1973) HD

    The James Bond reference is funny and also who Shaft says it too.

    FYI, "Shaft's Big Score" can be found (2nd disk) on the Criterion Blu-Ray release of "SHAFT."

    RIP Richard Roundtree. In Live and Let Die, he is on the cover of the magazine held by the man sitting by the pool when the boat drives across the lawn.
