RIP Christopher Lee

Post by MattG »

Sad to hear of Sir Christopher Lee's passing overnight. :(

By all accounts, he led a full and interesting life, and it must have been satisfying to be still involved in the industry he seemed to love up until so late in his life.

Very sad indeed, he played a very good innings, and to still be involved up to this point in the industry, well done. RIP.

No matter what he did, he excelled.

Legend.

That's a life worth celebrating!

Completely agree. It's hard to imagine that great man leaving with any regrets or feeling unfulfilled. It's sad that we will be without him, now, but what a legacy he leaves behind! :)

a little late for me to notice the thread, but i did hear about it at the time.
Its sad so many great legends are passing away and more will i know there must have been a great generation before these but this was our great generation he was a part of our most popular films and music along with many of his older friends, who left a good impression which hopefully will reach many people.

Its such a shame we don't have the means to 3d scan voices and personalities yet because he is on my list of the actors we should save so he can grace later generations.


But we will always remember him with fondness.
Hopefully that love from current fans will be passed onto their children and down into their legacies it is the least we fans can do for the actors who were a big part of our lives.
