J.T. Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Urgh. Even the sci-fi related celebrity deaths happen in threes. First Jacqueline Pearce and Zienia Merton and now word that Frank Serafine, the award winning Sound Editor / Designer for the Tron films and various entries in the Star Trek franchise (amongst other work in motion pictures and video games), has passed away at the age of 65. He was killed in a traffic incident where he was struck by a motorist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raziel Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Al Matthews passes at 75 I constantly find creative ways in conversations to work his "I Love the Coprs" speech in Aliens into conversations to gripe about work, along with a bunch of his other lines, I quote Sgt. Apone almost as much as anyone else in that movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Somehow this clip transitions from working with Edward Albee, Lee Strasberg and Al Pacino directly into working with Thom Mathews on Living Dead and it's kind of amazing how well that move sums up James Karen.

Contentious C Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 It's weird. James Karen looks a little like Scott Wilson. It's like there's a real version of Orphan Black happening with old actors. Octagenarian White or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Nicolas Roeg has passed away at age 90. A genius when it came to “writing” the film in the editing suite. You can really feel his influence on later filmmakers like Wright and Spike Lee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
