the world

these actors but rather doing our part

sensors in the tank pick up the size

seminar but I gotta go Brandes is
remembered by a generation of kids who
grew up watching the handsome and
charismatic young actor on the small
screen in Seaquest DSV on the big screen
and sidekicks and of course in the
Stephen King miniseries it get out but
if I want did the six of us to put you
in the hospital indeed so enduring was
brandis’s quick smile and capable acting
skill that it came as a huge shock when
the actor passed in such a sad and
dramatic fashion
number nine Michael Clarke Duncan what’s
important is we know that you know where
jimmy tudeski is look I really have no
what death can be a sudden and shocking
event taking the lives of those close to
us at a moment’s notice such was the
case with beloved actor Michael Clarke
Duncan who suffered a fatal heart attack
on July 13th of 2012 from which he never
recovered finally passing away from
respiratory failure on September 3rd of
that year you know what it’s gonna get a
whole lot worse before it gets any
better understand that
Duncan was a mainstay on both the big
and small screens possessing a
larger-than-life personality that
continues to affect those who have the
pleasure of seeing the man’s work in
such films as The Green Mile Agatha
listen here Michael Clarke Duncan may be
gone but his presence continues to live
on in the men’s and viable body of
creative work is it your kindness
the dregs of SimCity I serve a new
master now and soon you and all your
wretched kind will serve Him as well
number 8
Bernie Mac this ain’t no Chinese made
jagoff I tell you how it’s gonna be this
comedian may be dearly departed but the
last Bernie Mac gave his fans continue
to echo long after he died in 2008 from
complications brought on by pneumonia
look at he got a poster maze who’s all
about will it the inflammatory disease
known as sarcoidosis was also said to
have contributed to his death in a
Chicago hospital in August of that same
year robbing the world of a truly gifted
and quick-witted comedian scuse me
brother what we call drug descended full
Street Baptist Church we called us
senescence
yeah Bernie Mac’s extremely popular
stand up work as well as memorable
appearances in films like Bad Santa
and the Ocean’s eleven series ensured
that his career will surely cast a long
shadow for years to come
black man came in a decent wage in the
state that is Absalom well you know me I
don’t do either I’m trying to do my job
sir your job what you want from me man
let me get on table and dance let me
shine your shoes

Renfro mom I don’t want to talk to him
I’m gonna wind up like Rick if they
don’t stop bugging me I’m not gonna go
away it isn’t easy for some people to
maintain the correct balance between
Fame and the temptations that seem to
run parallel to it popular actor Brad
Renfro was yet another unfortunate
casualty in an industry that so often
sees young people paying the ultimate
price for experimenting with hard drugs
can we talk about this in a minute
seriously I’m like this close to being
done fans may have lost touch with
renfro’s career after the actors
acclaimed appearances in such films as
the client and apt pupil as his life
after these performances was marred by
alcohol abuse drugs and various run-ins
with the law so many things can happen
in between accidents sickness Renfro
died from heroin and morphine
intoxication due to an accidental
overdose while at his home on January 15
2000
I still smoke weed wasn’t like the 8th
grade I know a lot of the kids have been
doing it and shit but I was always
afraid to number 6 Dennis Hopper baby
wants to there are some Hollywood icons
that managed to be enduring presences on
the silver screen I’m confused
Dennis Hopper was one of these icons a
movie star maverick whose career thrived
through over five decades in the
business hey man would you mind just
woke my friend up the last year’s of
hoppers life were made turbulent thanks
to a bitter divorce battle that
exacerbated the actors battle with
prostate cancer this disease ultimately
took Hopper’s life in May of 2010 but
the man’s influence continues to be
ever-present thanks to Dennis hoppers
definitive appearances in such films as
Easy Rider
blue velvet and true romance now if
that’s a fact
tell me am i lying
number five James Avery where is he he’s
upstairs changing not will President
Reagan James Avery was lucky enough to
have not just one but two defining roles
in his lifetime in front of an audience
as Will Smith’s imposing but lovable
Uncle Phil on The Fresh Prince of
bel-air and is the voice of shredder on
the original Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles cartoon program I know that
fighting style it is the foot technique
complications from open-heart surgery
may have contributed to a breeze death
at 68 years of age in 2013 but the
talented actors voice and face continue
to live on within the hearts of his
loyal fans what am I gonna do how am I
gonna make it through the day without an
assistant
number four the cast of the original
poltergeist trilogy it’s one of the most
pervasive myths in the world of haunted
Hollywood the supposed curse that
surrounds the cast and production of the
1982 horror classic poltergeist and its
first two sequels this curse is said to
have been caused by the real skeletons
used during a number of crucial scenes
acquired from a medical supply company
by the name of Carolina biological
whether or not that’s true it’s supposed
victims include star Heather O’Rourke
who died of cardiac arrest and septic
shock at only 12 years old and co-star
Dominick Dunne who was murdered by
jealous boyfriend John Sweeney in 1982
the day he predicts for the end comes it
goes meanwhile Julianne back and will
sampson from poltergeist 2 both met
their deaths before the third film’s
release my kind of job you know maybe
it’s no coincidence this guy shows up
things go kind of screwy number three
Lee Thompson young so Levi tells me
you’re making me the eliminate door fans
of the Disney Channel series the famous
Jett Jackson may have lost track of
actor Lee Thompson young after he grew
up and branched out into other projects
but this didn’t mean that young was
destined for child star failure you got
to do it no matter what mom’s not gonna
be happy till she’s back in the
spotlight
instead the driven and talented young
earned a role on the hit police drama
Rizzoli and Isles a role that earned him
both critical and commercial praise
I hope I’m crazy he didn’t want to
accuse the program he loved unless he
was sure he was right
sadly young suffered from bipolar
disorder an illness that led the actor
to commit suicide in August of 2013
however he left behind a body of work
with both power and potential and I
miss that infectious smile and the joy
that he brought to every day number two
Thuy Trang leave is a lone book oh yeah
me yeah it’s difficult to imagine what
great career paths might have opened up
for actress Thuy Trang had the young
star not died in a car accident
in September of 2001
perhaps it was the close proximity of
Trang’s death to the September 11th
terror attacks that prevented reports of
her demise from spreading through the
usual news channels what is certain
however is Trang’s enduring legacy as
the very first yellow ranger Trini Quan
on Saban’s hit franchise Mighty Morphin
Power Rangers all right I’m in me too
you can count on me

been cut short but her contribution to
