Make it so I can have it too please.
Yup, this needs to happen!
Such a sad loss, hit me more than I expected (not that I expected it, of course).

It's a great idea, I think there would be uproar on how it was given out though but to be fair lets make it over 34,000 posts

Bowie, as much as I knew of him my whole life, I never really sat down and listened to his music specifically. Rickman though, I love films and have watched just about everything from when I was very young to today. Rickman was around in films from really when I can remember my childhood till a couple of years ago and I loved him in just about everything.
I almost can't believe Die Hard was 1988 release, I was 6, I didn't watch it then but probably not too much later. Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Rickman, Gibson, Willis, they are the guys in the biggest films of the era and the earliest films I can remember
Testament to Rickmam that while Gibson disgraced himself on top of making worse and worse films, Willis sold out and made lots of trash, Rickman has been making great films throughout his career. He played good and bad guys, serious or comedic roles equally well. Say day.

Same here, Bowie was a bit of a shock but not on a personal level at all.
I watched Prince of Thieves growing up countless times, sometimes every week. I grew up hating Rickman's character until I was old enough to understand and appreciate that I was supposed to..., that it was his acting which made him brilliant.

RIP Hans
Alan Rickman showed the world that all the best baddies are as camp as a field full of boy scouts and Cinema will be worse off without him

bloody hell, such sad news, what a week this is turning out to be. First a musical genius, and now a genius behind the camera has passed. One of my favourite actors, so charismatic in his roles, and the best villain of the 80's in Die Hard which is my favourite movie ever. So Sad, RIP.
