For the second time this week, a significant artist falls to cancer at age 69. This time, it was Alan Rickman, costar in the Harry Potter franchise, the Metatron from Dogma, Alexander Dane in Galaxy Quest, and classic villain Hans Gruber from the greatest Christmas movie ever made, Die Hard.
And Marvin the Paranoid Android from the H2G2 movie.
Not a good week to be a 69-year-old UK celebrity with cancer :(
Marvin was the ONLY good thing about that movie remake…
I think I’ve figured out what George RR Martin has been doing instead of writing the next Song of Ice and Fire book. Someone put him in charge of the script for 2016.
