Arte Johnson.

Bummer.

I mean, his death is very interesting... but stupid.

Apparently Cameron Boyce just died in his sleep from a seizure.. Crazy stuff, kid was only 20.

He's most known for his role as Luke on "Jessie".

Damn. I knew him extensively from my daughters watching Jessie and the Descendants movies. He always seemed like a really nice kid with a long and successful future ahead him. My condolences to his friends and family. Taken way too soon.

Oh, man, we just lost Freddie Jones.

Lots of great credits in that one's career. To me, he'll always first and foremost be Professor Richter in Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed.

But, man, he was also in The Elephant Man, Krull, Firestarter, Young Sherlock Holmes, Wild at Heart...

And just so. many. TV. credits.

Another legendary character actor leaves us. Always thought Hauer was a pretty cool dude. Split Second is an underrated piece of sci-fi/horror cinema.

Damn, this hurts quite a bit. His final monologue in Blade Runner is the stuff of legend.

^It’s ironic that he died the same year as his fictional character.

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...
