Predictor 1,018 Posted December 13, 2021 Underground film director Kenneth Anger (b. 1927) needs to be seriously considered for next year. I get a "runner-up at the local Kirk Douglas lookalike contest" kind of vibe from him nowadays. Looks every bit of his age, even though not sure how how old he is in these photos. Well, he ain't getting any younger.

The Immortal 634 Posted December 15, 2021 Found out that Dabney Coleman is still alive and is nearly 90 years old. Best known for his roles in The Towering Inferno and 9 To 5, but I remember him for his role in the 1983 film WarGames. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another role I remember him for is as one of the nastier murderers in the 90s revival of Peter Falk Has Alzheimer's Columbo, when he strangles his much younger pop star wife. The 90s Columbo episodes are a very mixed bag, but that one's a good one, and Coleman convincingly plays a complete bastard in it. EDIT - Huh, he's also the voice of the Principal in Recess? That, I didn't know! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's going to come out eventually that the vaccine interacts poorly with some form of PED. Which is why a bunch of bodybuilders have carked it this year from heart issues. Obviously football clubs won't want anyone to know how much "special medicine" they're taking off the pitch.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Daredevil 1,189 Posted December 16, 2021 In light of his current hospitalisation and now knowing he has had heart attacks and bypass surgeries, I’m starting to think 96-year-old Mahathir Mohamad might be a good contender after all for the 2022 DL. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Daredevil 1,189 Posted December 17, 2021 Monty Norman will be 94 next year. He created the James Bond theme music, so he will definitely get a qualifying obit. Thus, he should be considered for the 2022 DL, he would be deathlisty enough. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Predictor 1,018 Posted December 17, 2021 Robert Blake (b. 1933) has been a Youtuber for the past 3 years. The videos in the web series are titled "I ain't dead yet, so stay tuned". The most recent video is from 15 December and only has the following scrolling text: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7YhBChE-fY "Hi gang, This is the old cowboy himself talking to you. I've been preoccupied with being old. In other words, trips to the doctors, trips to the hospital and this and that. But God handed the ball back to me and I'm OK. And I give thanks that I'm OK in time to give you a little holiday treat." Then Blake plugs his autobiography and writes "if I was there, I'd give you a big kiss on the mouth, boy, girl, or anything in-between". Ummm, alrighty then... He closes out thes message with "That's it for now, unless the big boss calls me to his table for all the holidays to come". While we don't know the cause for his hospitalization, and he seems to be stable for now, you can never rule out recurrence of ailment at age 88. The video preceding this one was in August, so this issue must have gone on for a few months. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Doctor 88 Posted December 17, 2021 For 2022 I would add * Former Peruvian president Alberto Fujimori who is quite sick * Former Italian president Giorgio Napolitano who will turn 97 years old in june 2022 and suffered of heart disease a few years ago. Actually he is the longest former linving president of Italy. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted December 19, 2021 So, long shot etc. etc. but I'd advise keeping an eye on the increasingly erratic creature that is Jezza Corbyn's big brother. Arrested today for - potentially - insighting physical attacks on the offices of those conspicuously more successful in politics than he ever was (so that's upping the ante from the days when he simply turned up at Labour events and screamed in the faces of delegates, then). I actually got within a few yards of him this year and he looks rough (lips weren't exactly a pink colour and this was a warm day as he railed anti-vaxxing rhetoric into a megaphone in front of, ooohhh, at least 19 devotees). Anyway, the extent to which he and a full deck were ever in the same room is debateable and he's a random enough activist that he may just piss off truly dangerous types, and - frankly - I didn't think he looked that well physically for a 74 year old when I saw him.
