Not content with managing an all-star rock-band, Mr. Greaper has decided to branch out into film-making. :roll:

Alan Rickman will probably be in that film.

RIP Princess Leia, what a sad Christmas for many people. :(

Since He's now got 2/3rds of the key actors in Blues Brothers, were I Dan Aykroyd I'd now be quite concerned. Since BB2000 was a dogpile, I fully expect there to be a Blues Brothers - Resurrection in the near future.

RIP Carrie.
She was so courageous and clever...

I think of her in the Blues Brothers every time I paint my nails - she was quite simply brilliant.

And now Carrie's mum Debbie Reynolds has died RIP

This means Carrie's daughter has lost both her mother and grandmother within a day of each other. What a loss for her :(
