Lafaucheuse 3,659 Posted June 19, 2023 2 hours ago, Jonah said: wasn't this picture taken a while ago ? I remember a video of the three of them from some months ago... Lear looks real decent for his age ! Brooks looks ok but DVD looks the frailest of the three of them. It's irritating to never see him serious cause we can't really say how healthy he looks and the fact that he is always smiling or goofing around is maybe why people got the impression he looks good. I'd say the smiling/goofing stuff is maybe an unconscious way to hide his age and deteriorating state. That said, I wouldn't be too surprised if he does die before 2024. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's possible that the picture was taken a while ago and was recently used to advertise the new Mel Brooks interview. However, I couldn't find anything else about the date of the picture! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah that's what I thought, I already saw this picture, I checked for the picture in Lear's and DVD's topic but didn't find anything so I wasn't sure 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 19,099 Posted December 6, 2023 Given Reiner and now Lear are dead, does this leave Brooks somewhat in the firing line? Last of the trio of friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would have said it was a quad (or a Jewish triple with one goy). He's still got Dick Van Dyke to play dominos with. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course, at that age, anything could happen, but I think there are much better choices out there. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Autistic Merit 4 Posted January 13 Got quite worried when I saw 'RIP Mel' trending this morning on Twitter. No way that we'd have 4 hits in the first month of 2024. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With as many people as we have in their 90's on the list and we are only half way through the month we could definitely hit 4 or even who is to say 5 isn't a possibility.

JonNgoat 52 Posted January 13 His voice also sounds good and he’s still able to walk mostly unaided. Age is really the only reason for him to be on the list. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
