This has not been a good week for geekdom.
Word has now come out that Mr. Severus Snape, Alan Rickman, has passed away from cancer at age 69.
Although I knew him first as Mr. Hans Guber, from Die Hard:
He'll be missed.

Indeed.
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite role from Rickman, though, was Alexander Dane/Dr Lazarus, the Leonard Nimoy/Spock homage, in Galaxy Quest.
Heh. I loved that role a lot too.
DeleteI could have pulled out a ton of his bad guy roles, from Quigley Down Under to Robin Hood, but I enjoyed the roles where he showed his acting chops.
I ought to qualify that by saying that his bad guy roles were very VERY well done, but he had such a good range that it's easy to typecast him as "just a bad guy actor".
