Chuck Norris, action legend, dead at 86

Watch so many of his movies growing up. R.I.P.

I dont think I ever saw a Chuck Norris movie but he is the kind of famous where it doesnt matter.

I dont think I ever saw a Chuck Norris movie but he is the kind of famous where it doesnt matter.

I remember him as more of a TV star than a movie star. I was first introduced to him on "Walker, Texas Ranger." I later saw him in a movie called "Sidekicks" that was pretty good; though his presence in it was really a glorified cameo, it was done well. I also remember him from those Total Gym commercials.

Chuck Norris didn't die. He just replaced God.

RiP Legend!

Fun fact: Last night I dreamed of my late brother and my late dad and both were huge fans of Chuck Norris facts...

Nicholas Brendon from Buffy died.

 

[Buzz]

The second Buffy actor to die in as many months.

 

[Desperado]

Brendon had many issues and was arrested twice for assaulting (chocking) two separate girlfriends. There are accounts of him doing this many more times.

The below article skimmed the surface. Social media has been filled w/ personal accounts of his terrible behaviour in work setting and at fans events for years.

I’m not crying over this one.

Same here

I realize that Nicholas Brendon wasn't an upstanding citizen. But his "art" pleased me in some way. So while I may not appreciate the person he was, I appreciate the escape he gave us all. I don't know how to quantify that.

Dash Crofts, from the soft-rock duo Seals & Crofts, just died. Their songs 'Summer Breeze' and 'Diamond Girl' were infectious, and a throwback to a different era.

Summer Breeze IS the summer before senior year in HS. RIP.

I still find those songs the perfect summer melodies. And I remember going to the record album section at Sears, Roebuck and Co. to buy the "One On One" soundtrack all of those years ago for their songs. This makes me sad but so appreciative that they lived.

James Tolkan from Back to the Future, Top Gun, and a host of other performances, has passed away.
