Octopus of Odstock 2,215 Posted November 10, 2006 (edited) Jack Palance has died. Here it is. Is anyone else surprised by this? I mean he was on the long-list, sure, but he wasn't someone I was expecting to drop anytime soon. Good actor. Also Jack Palance was the first person I ever picked in a deadpool type competition to die next, some 5 years ago... I haven't got much better since.

Banshees Scream 110 Posted November 10, 2006 He was a good actor. What a shame. And he should have been on this years f****n list. But what a good actor. It's really a shame. But i'm guessing he was around 86\87 years old so he has had a long life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godot 149 Posted November 10, 2006 I once had an office goldfish called Jack Palance. One morning we came in to find him dead on the floor. A portent? Well it was 30 years ago. A reminder of our mortality nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canadian Paul 97 Posted November 10, 2006 Jack Palance has died. Here it is. Is anyone else surprised by this? I am. He really seemed like the tough-as-nails type, I thought he'd make it to 90 at least... and BS, I don't think we can fault him for not being on the DL list... I don't think he seemed like a likely possibility given the facts at hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[Posts moved from "Near Misses" -- MH] Yep, quite suprised. No sign of ill health, but it just shows anyone can just drop dead of anything. He was very low down on my 684 name long list. I had his "game" figures at 47pts and I'm using a 120pt cut off at the moment. Great charactor actor - don't make them like that anymore. Think we will be watching City Slickers on TV this Christmas time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
