Wow. I mean, I never was one of the people who saw him as an "inspiration to millions," but I donated to his foundation, and he seemed really cool.

So we've lost Derrida, Superman and Rodney Dangerfield? Richard, what's HAPPENING to me?

Derrida's the only one that's actually made me sad, but damn, this whole atmosphere of moribundity is a little disconcerting.

Quote from: "Asherdan"

Cracking his spine was the best career move dude ever made.  Sure one-upped Margot Kidder's turn at going toothless and crazy.

Later, Kal-El.

A little harsh but true. The role of Superman in the movies has been cursed since time began.

I was thinking about Dean Cain. He was only on TV, I think, so he should be OK.

Does Tom Welling get an automatic buy-out due to the fact that he's just Clark Kent and never Superman?
