    Thoughts on 2023 Deathlist

    Interesting to see Duvall and Linden seemingly made it. I debated them given their ages but they seem quite healthy to me (Linden can still walk sans assistance, Duvall was in two films this year). Given that I dropped them from my shadowlist they'll probably die. But they're also on the deathlist so they'll probably live. Mexican standoff?

    Pope Benedict XVI

    I'm fine with Van Dyke's inclusion (yes, he shouldn't be #1 or anything, but there are worse picks out there). Akihito and Crosby being retained over the Pope, though?

    Thanks. Here's an update given my list is intent on croaking in the fourth quarter. (And, for future reference, I'm a guy :p)

    Shadow Lists

    Sheesh, Barbara AND the Pope? Guess I've learned my lesson. I'm not making a 2024 list until 2025. Randomizer declares June Spencer will take his place.

    Neal Jimenez, writer of River's Edge and writer/director of The Waterdance, died at 62 on Dec. 11. I almost brought him up a few months ago because he was reported dead in July by Roger Avary on his and Quentin Tarantino's podcast, but I figured it wasn't true. Guess he actually was in bad shape.

    He died this August at 89.

    Pelé

    Pelé gains another week of life every time this thread deems his demise imminent. I think that means by now he's a safe bet for 2047.

    Pelé

    Well, is a "Betty White" merely dying on New Year's Eve, or does it need some sort of shock factor? I don't think anyone would be surprised at this point if he did die.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2023

    DeAngelo is probably fool's gold. He was captured on security cameras in June/July 2020 active in his cell, cleaning up and climbing around to cover lights. Then suddenly the next month at his trial he's in a wheelchair acting as if he can barely talk or move. Granted that was two years ago but gut feeling tells me he's probably doing fine for his age. For other California serial killers, Edmund Kemper is a "famous" guy I'm surprised isn't discussed much here. Per his 2017 parole transcript he had a stroke that seriously diminished his mental faculties, not to mention he's obese and wheelchair-bound.

    Mike Hodges, director of Get Carter and Flash Gordon, dead at 90
  22. It's either that or he can't understand English. But yeah, I don't want to be rude because there's no way he's trolling at this point. Way too much "effort" was put into this thread... like a day after he was explicitly told multiple times no one cares about all this Genarians stuff.
  23. Didn't mention something to remember is that not everyone makes it to 100 once. 0/5
  24. An old-ish one I just remembered. In 2019, an account with no other edits added a 2017 death date for Theodore Streleski (wiki), a Stanford University student who murdered one of his professors and served seven years in prison. He would've been 81 and is obviously pretty off-radar given the crime he committed. He was most recently living in San Francisco per familytreenow and other sites, but he doesn't have any kind of mylife page, lending credence to the idea that he might've died. Thoughts?

    Baseball

    10th pitcher to pitch a perfect game to die. 13 left, and most of them are pretty young outside of Koufax. Wonder if he'll live to see the next one? Been a decade now...
