Gene Hackman and his wife's cause of death released.

In late February, the couple was found dead in their New Mexico home, a heartrending end to the life they shared. Arakawa, 65, died of hantavirus and days later, Hackman, 95, died of heart disease, the New Mexico medical investigator’s office revealed Friday.

Seems he had pretty advanced Alzheimer’s and she was his primary caretaker. She may have died a week before he did. Absolutely terrible way to go for both of them.

Odd that, as famous as he was, someone wasn't aware of what was going on.

I thought Hantavirus was gonna wipe us out during 1992/93 in my home town. I remember hundreds of people getting it and about half of them dying. CDC's site shows NM as only having 18 reported cases in 93.

TIMELINE

New, coming soon. Looks good. A24 doing better movies than pedophile, I mean, Hollywood.

This looks realistic...well until they got to the AI armored vehicle.

Random thought...I watch a lot of westerns and always wonder if everyone in the old west was deaf after hearing a couple of .45 long colts go off multiple times in a saloon. And where did the bullets land, because nobody aimed their six shooters.

You're sick bro, and I love it.

I'm 99% sure I've seen this movie...probably a couple times. But, fuck it, why not...I'm in:

This could be...legit. Hope it is.

New ‘Starship Troopers’ Movie in the Works from ‘District 9’ Filmmaker Neill Blomkamp (Exclusive)

I liked the last one, but I didn't read the book until way later and the story line of the movie is satire I guess but lacks sooooo much depth.

I hope so. I don’t want a campy take on fascism. I want power armor.

I’d like them to make Armor a movie. Now that I’ve read that Starship Troopers has fallen a notch in my favorite sci fi books.

Read Armor and also Forever War. I think Starship Troopers is more the the fore in my memory then Forever War. I really can't remember the main plot for Armor.

The plot of Armor is kinda wonky, it goes from a very grim, very dark, awful war story to a kinda silly space opera type thing for a while, then back and forth between the two. I greatly enjoyed it though. @Viper1 also recommended it I believe.

It's one of my favorite books, I hope Golden finds its Guardian Archon

Watching Gran Torino.

Although I would like to think my spirit animal is more Eastwood's Preacher from Pale Rider, it's more likely Walt Kowalski.
