I can't be completely sad about this though, he lived a crazy long and productive life. Dying at 93 after everything he did...? Hell of a run by a crazy talented human being.

Title: Re: Sir Christopher Lee has departed this mortal coil... Post by: Merusk on June 11, 2015, 06:04:28 AM Sad news but the guy had an awesome life and was 93 so you can't be TOO sad.
I was told that he is the guy that Fleming based Bond on. Yeah I've heard that before, too. Also, this quote: Quote From Peter Jackson’s DVD commentary: “When I was shooting the stabbing shot with Christopher, as a director would, I was explaining to him what he should do… And he says, ‘Peter, have you ever heard the sound a man makes when he’s stabbed in the back?’ And I said, 'Um, no.’ And he says 'Well, I have, and I know what to do.’” Title: Re: Sir Christopher Lee has departed this mortal coil...

Anyway, not to worry. He will rise again in the sequel. And be the best thing in it. Title: Re: Sir Christopher Lee has departed this mortal coil... Post by: disKret on June 11, 2015, 07:01:30 AM One of the oldest metal fan :heartbreak:
