Oof, that hurts. That man was a pioneer alongside Kurosawa. May he rest in peace.

This is an older celebrity death, but it's been ruled that Margot Kidder's death was a suicide.

This death was really sad for me, and this just made it so much sadder.

My most wanted fight ever is Discord vs Bobobo-bo bo-bobo.
Godzilla has a regen like Wolverine, a skin like Luke Cage, a hero aura like Captain America, a strength like Hulk, an unstoppability like Juggernaut, an immortality like Deadpool.

There's a 'God' in Godzilla for a reason...

He was a strong, happy man to the end. Rest in peace, Mr. Stefansson.

One that hits harder than I would have realized:

Bill Daily (Major Healey I Dream of Jeannie, Howard on The Bob Newhart Show, recurring as Larry the shrink on ALF), at age 91.

Not even sure which of the first two roles I'd call more iconic.

Added in 16 days 7 hours 59 minutes 18 seconds:
Gary Kurtz, a key figure in the development and production of Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back, as well as The Dark Crystal.

Tokyo, a smoldering memorial to the unknown, an unknown which at this very moment still prevails and could at any time lash out with its terrible destruction anywhere else in the world.
