Predictor 1,018 Posted December 30, 2014 Actress Luise Rainer dead at 104 http://www.bbc.co.uk...t-arts-30631088 Oh. Well as one of my least favourite DL picks ever, I suppose that's one way of ......... Sad to hear. May she rest in peace. Looks like my final result will be 6 hits and 33 points. Wait. Oh fuck. I'm drawn with you Predictor....... no wait, you win on a tie-break cos of more hits. Deathray if you have any clean tissues left after you've finished wanking to Rainer's pics, I could use some... or, alternatively.... COME ON CASTRO DIE NOW DIE NOW DIE NOW Haha, really, we're tied? Who would've guessed that last December 31st? While I have more hits, your 20 starters have a younger average age than mine. The problem is that literally all of those from your team who died were 80-89. So that's 6x5 plus 3 extra points for your unique pick. My hits were more diverse with the youngest at 70s (Womack) and now Rainer at 100s. This just proves that there are different paths towards the same "exit". Hey, what if Castro does die later this year but the obits arrive on January 1? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted December 31, 2014 Just saw the news very belatedly. There I was thinking our Lou might make it up to super-centenarian status, too. Definitely need a Hollywood legend like Maureenor Olivia on next year's list now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death's Scribe 2 Posted December 31, 2014 Shouldn't she be crossed off on the 2014 list by now and a nice little obituary should be there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Predictor 1,018 Posted December 31, 2014 We need an update before the year is over! It should look a little something like this: 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted December 31, 2014 Good of you to resist photoshopping the Swastika armband on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Book 3,556 Posted December 31, 2014 Shouldn't she be crossed off on the 2014 list by now and a nice little obituary should be there as well. Very very sad that there is no update. They should be jumping for joy of that 10th hit and that the 2014 DL is ending in double-figures, but they ignore it or whatever. Very sad. Predictor: Please take over the list for 2015! Very nice and respectful!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Predictor 1,018 Posted December 31, 2014 Good of you to resist photoshopping the Swastika armband on. There's a high risk that she wouldn't have lived to be a centenarian had she stayed in Germany. Simply because of the people with Swastika armbands on. (FYI, she was Jewish in case you didn't know). Predictor: Please take over the list for 2015! Very nice and respectful!!! Haha, thanks. But they won't hire me when they see that I made the 10 much smaller than the 50. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Book 3,556 Posted December 31, 2014 Finally! I would be interesting to know which pick is the one who replaces Luise Rainer, which one is her substitute. I assume that she was fixed for the DL 2015. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted December 31, 2014 Finally! I would be interesting to know which pick is the one who replaces Luise Rainer, which one is her substitute. I assume that she was fixed for the DL 2015. Yes, I was wondering about that, too. Forget the Twelfth Man; I hope the DL Committee have a 51st Man to come on as a substitute!

Book 3,556 Posted May 10, 2015 Going back to topic: Last July the City of Düsseldorf honored Luise Rainer with a “Stern/Star” to keep her in rememberance. The headlines says: “Most-unfamous superstar Luise Rainer is honored with a “Stern/Star” in front of the Filmmuseum”. If I will come along one day, I will take a picture of this nice gesture. http://lust-auf-duesseldorf.de/unberuhmtester-superstar-luise-rainer-mit-stern-vor-filmmuseum-geehrt/ Not THAT impressive but better than nothing: 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Book 3,556 Posted March 12, 2017 Düsseldorf named a street after Luise Rainer. Nice gesture. https://www.duesseldorf.de/medienportal/pressedienst-einzelansicht/pld/luise-rainer-strasse-duesseldorf-ehrt-seine-zweifache-oscar-preistraegerin.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
