    [​IMG] I just heard on tv that Pat Morita (Arnold, Happy Days, Mr. Myagi, The Karate Kid) died at his home.

    Also, George Takei died (Sulu, Star Trek) last week and I finally heard about it today!

    EDIT: all fixed. Sorry guys.

    That is a real shame, I was fond of both of their work.

    It seems that the original Star Trek cast are starting to drop off fairly regularly now, I guess that is to be expected given their age but it is still sad to see.

    I just heard the news, very sad to know this :(
    Who would know, names like this marks you for life, who wouldn't know Miyagui or Sulu?

    That is indeed very sorrowful news. I liked them both in what I saw them in. A real shame. :(

    Wow, I knew about Mr. Miyagi, but not Mr. Sulu. :(

    RIP fellas.

    BTW, at least Takai got the whole gay thing off his chest before he left us.

    Can somebody provide a link or something like that saying George Takei passed away. I can't find anything about it anywhere. Only news about him coming out of the closet, but nothing about him passing away.

    RIP for the both.

    :o I looked and looked and only found that George is still alive. I heard it through a friend who was apparently wrong. :nolike: Excuse me, folks. Aldeth, can I borrow your mallet for a sec? :smash:

    George declared not too long ago that he was gay. Maybe some people consider him dead now ;)

    Really sad news. I loved Karate Kid and watched those series many, many times when I was a kid.
    [']['] RIP

    Can we edit this title, since Sulu is still alive?
