David Carradine Found Dead

[The Shade]

Anyone who says "Who?" to Patrick McGoohan, Vincent Price, Humphrey Bogart, Peter Cushing, Bela Lugosi, David Carradine, Boris Karloff, Peter Lorre really need to see one of their films. Desperately.
And I'm sure there's a number of equally great actors/actresses that could be added to that list.

James (Jimmy) Stewart
Ingrid Bergman
Orson Welles
Maureen O'Sullivan
William Holden and Gloria Swanson
Sydney Greenstreet
Buster Keaton
James Cagney
Lauren Bacall

And my personal favourites,

William Powell & Myrna Loy



...to name a few.

We still have Kill Bill Vol.1 and 2 to remember him by. Them movies were epic. He played his part so well.

Rest Peacefully Bill.

Initial reports suggested he had died of natural causes but it now appears that the actor committed suicide by hanging.

What's natural about hanging? "We found my great aunt last week in the river with cement shoes. We first suspected foul play or maybe a suicide, but it turns out that it was natural causes."

I could see it being a mistake if it was some sort of drug (legal or illegal) that stopped his heart, and at first they suspected cardiac arrest (based on his age)... but hanging? How do you suspect natural causes from that???

Perhaps it was a hemp rope, that's natural...

Anyway, this is shat news, he was a great actor, and seemed like a cool guy in all the interviews I saw/heard him do. R.I.P.

Granted, I only saw him in Kill Bill, but he was still a great actor. Sad to here this as well.

R.I.P.

This news sucks.

R.I.P Caine.

 

[Quaidis]

This is upsetting news. I recently got into his narration on a show called 'Wild West Tech', after seeing what movies he was in. He had a very charming voice about him.

He also doesn't seem like the sort of man to hang himself. Why? It wasn't like his career was ending, and he had many projects this year. I hope the police do some more investigating and come up with a better reason than suicide.

I found this game on newgrounds mocking his death. Its really fucked up, just way too soon.

I see what you did there.
They might say "WTF?" if they heard this though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLXOO9PnnMQ

Suicide huh? How do you confuse natural causes for hanging? Here's a tip: If he's hanging by his neck from the ceiling, chances are it was hanging.

I was thinking the same thing.

Even if the rope broke and he was lying on the ground, I don't see how anyone could assume that a broken neck is a natural death.

Get your kleenexes out...

 

[Leorex]

just the other day i was watching his phone book commercial and thinking...

"that guy is going to die soon, i can feel it"

to bad.

 

[TsunamiWombat]

Initial reports actually said he died with the rope around his neck and genitals. Later reports said had the rope around his neck and body.

He was in Bangkok.

I hate to say it guys, but it seems to me he probably picked up a hooker and died during autoerotic asphyxiation...

 

[Acid Armageddon]

R.I.P. Dave Carradine...

 

[Eagle Est1986]

Damn shame, I'm sure he had he reasons though. Who knew we was 72?! I wouldn't have put him much older than 60.

 

[Vern]

Really sad. I've never much followed his life or career, but what I've seen him in he was a great actor, and he also seemed like a really decent person. His voice had an amazingly calming effect. Still, when you feel like you have to go, you have to go. At least he's left a decent legacy behind him.

Good night, sweet prince...

At least he probably died having the time of his life. 72 isn't a bad age to reach, and if you're gonna go, you may as well go out doing something you enjoy. Of course, there's always the possibility someone made it look that way, but I guess that's for the police to decide.

Also, am I the only one that would rather think that a loved one died from some weird kink than that they were in so much anguish and pain that they decided to kill themselves? What, is committing suicide somehow better than dying accidentally doing something polite society frowns down on?
