I know it's a slow news day and I'm a grumpy old man, but it's not like he's a megastar such as H out of Steps or the guy second from the left in the Backstreet Boys. I'd struggle to pick him out of a lineup featuring a tub of guacamole and a game of Whac-a-Mole to be honest. Yet there he is, lead story everywhere. So, on behalf of Paul Bearer and Sir Creep, may I just say .... Who?!

Within the last 10 years (2014 - 2023) there was an Oscar winning actress (Leading Actress, Supporting Actress, Honorary Award) on every DeathList : 2023 Joanne Woodward (Leading) 2022 Angela Lansbury (Honorary) 2021 Angela Lansbury Joanne Woodward Vanessa Redgrave (Supporting) 2020 Olivia de Havilland (2x Leading) Angela Lansbury Joanne Woodward 2019 Olivia de Havilland Vanessa Redgrave 2018 Olivia de Havilland 2017 Olivia de Havilland 2016 Olivia de Havilland 2015 Olivia de Havilland Maureen O'Hara (Honorary) 2014 Luise Rainer (2x Leading) Olivia de Havilland Lauren Bacall (Honorary) So which Oscar winning actress could be on next year's list if Joanne Woodward would die this year ? Here is a list of the most likely choices because of age or health reasons: Eva Marie Saint *1924, Supporting Lee Grant *1925, Supporting Estelle Parsons *1927, Supporting Gena Rowlands *1930, Honorary Rita Moreno *1931, Supporting Ellen Burstyn *1932, Leading Shirley Jones *1934, Supporting Shirley MacLaine *1934, Leading Sophia Loren *1934, Leading Judi Dench *1934, Supporting Maggie Smith *1934, Leading and Supporting Julie Andrews *1935, Leading Glenda Jackson *1936, 2x Leading Jane Fonda *1937, 2x Leading Liza Minnelli *1946, Leading Liza with a Z would be the only re-entry, the others would be newbies on the list.

No. He’s not.

The comic book writer Rachel Pollack, who helmed the Doom Patrol series after the departure of Grant Morrison, has died aged 77. Pollack was also an expert on the tarot and her Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom: A Book of Tarot is apparently often described as the "Bible of Tarot". Still, looks like she drew Death (XIII) last month, and her entry into hospice care was eagerly noted down by some savvy Cup players. wannamaker gets a captain hit to inch further ahead of msc (who also scored), I become joint second-top scorer with my captain hit but still trail gcreptile (who also scored) by eight points, and Hell's captain hit sees them still trailing alt obits guy on average age. gcreptile 17 vs SpadeCooley 9 deadsox 3 vs MariNisia 0 Hell 9 vs alt obits guy 9 Grim Up North 9 vs CaptainChorizo 0 Banana 9 vs Sir Macchiato 0 msc 3 vs wannamaker 9 Annami 0 vs DevonDeathTrip 6 An Fear Baeg 3 vs Captain Hemlock 0

Nescafe Gold.

Andrés García reportedly dead aged 81.

Easy. 49.25 years.

Yes, I enjoyed that. He was good in Black Mirror too (Shut Up And Dance)

Marine to be interviewed tomorrow on french TV. Don’t know if it’s related

The thing is, several unrelated accounts reported it at the very Same Time, around 1pm including some nationalistic ones with more than 10k followers so wait and see

I watched some more of this (not finished yet), and the other Massachusetts settings at least look like Boston (well I recognized the state house; I think the museum is a fabrication but that's okay), Cumberland Farms (the gas station they stop at) and Lincoln (where the doom prepper and his boyfriend live). No idea why they screwed up so bad in making the Charles River look like the wilderness. Here's a photo of what it actually looks like in the more "rustic" areas:

My understanding is that it's voted by users. You click "boost" and their name rises in the ranking. However, the site has been populated by teenyboppers since it was created in 2012. Most of the users now probably weren't born then. That's why there are so many TikTok Stars. The Most Popular page is very telling. The average age is 24, with the oldest (living) being Kim K who might as well belong in a nursing home at 42.

I love individual thread. It’s easier to keep track of someone ealth battle rather than post every details in a general topic + the « dead tag » always hits different than just the mere report of a death in a general topic.

I still would.

Just over 3 hours to submit your teams Good luck.

That's terrible - just played one of their tracks on the radio. You're a DJ?

Nazi death ray.....Halibut death ray.... Still fail to see why you aren't on their side.

Rod Durham, who competed on “Extreme Weight Loss” in 2014, has died. He was 52. The reality star was found dead in a Fort Lauderdale motel room over the weekend. The cause of death is not yet known. SC

There's a theme team idea in that I'd be bound...

Austrian actress Maria Schell, who also had international success (playing with Marlon Brando, Yul Brynner, Gary Cooper and Marcello Mastroianni), died on April 26, 2005 aged 79. Academy Award winner Maximilian Schell was her brother.

He had a good sense of humor about it though, there was an occasion where he was accused of being two-faced and he responded by saying "If I were two-faced, why would I be wearing this one?"

This should be in the 'jazz' thread. There's a clue there!

Florrie Baldwin Europe, and Britain's oldest person has died aged 114. Feel free to resurrect the topic of whether Guadeloupe resident Eugenie Blanchard qualifies as European. Florrie was the "oldest living person in Europe". Italian Venere Pizzinato (born 23 November 1896) now takes on that mantle.
