Lucas donated most of the Disney money to charity, especially in education.

Weird seeing hate for it.

Don’t worry. Tech billionaires go into space. Movie billionaires go into the sea.

Huh. Really surprised to see a negative take on this game. It absolutely blew me away, and is slowly creeping through my friend group, doing the same thing to each and every one that finally picks it up. At least I appreciate the spoiler warning, as Inscryption is at it’s best when you go in blind knowing next to

I remember when he popped up for the first time on Battlestar Galactica. I’d already fallen in love with the show, but seeing him on-screen for the first time I went “oh, here we go...” Cavill was utterly extraordinary, especially his rant to Ellen Tigh post-Ellen’s regeneration. I’ll say this about BSG - they

He always managed to have a “these people are all idiots” look in his eye, no matter the role.

Stockwell was a working actor. He worked because he enjoyed it and it always showed. He wasn’t one of those guys who sat around waiting for his big break. He showed up, did his job whether it was a central character or not and did it very well.

I watched Paris, Texas because I love the soundtrack and got sucked in completely. You know you can trust a movie that stars not one but both Deans of General Awesomeness.  RIP.

Worth noting that Battlestar Galactica: The Plan where they go back through the series from the perspective of the Cylons (and retro-fix a lot of plot holes in a fun way) was really his movie.

This hurts.  This one really hurts.  What a fun actor- it was always a treat for him to pop up, from Twilight Zone to Quantum Leap to Langoliers to BSG.  His turn in Blue Velvet is forever in memory.  

Sam, according to Ziggy, there’s a 100% chance that this news absolutely sucks.

Mr. Stockwell was such an entertaining performer, and made everything he was in better. What a great career.

I liked him as Wilbur Whateley in The Dunwich Horror. Anybody who can get Yog-Sothoth to knock up Sandra Dee is okay in my Necronomicon.

One of those character actors like Ray Wise who instantly make me happy when I see them onscreen because they are always going to be fun whether the movie or show is brilliant or crap.

Stockwell! Stockwell! Stockwell! A thousand deaths were not enough for Stockwell!

He was even enjoyable in the bad stuff, like this atrocity that I watch every time it’s on.

Don’t worry, I’m sure they have a resurrection ship nearby.

His episode of the Twilight Zone, alongside a young Leonard Nimoy, was particularly noteworthy, as a battle-hungry young officer forced to observe the war from the other side.  Rod Serling, the episode’s writer, had served as a paratrooper in the Pacific during WW2.

Oh, boy.
