Real shame Miguel Ferrer has died - I did not realise that he's related to George Clooney. The "War - it's fantastic!" line from Hot Shots is one of the all time best comic deliveries. :lol:

Battlestar Galactica star Richard Hatch dies aged 71

Image

Tributes are being paid to actor Richard Hatch, who has died from pancreatic cancer at the age of 71.

He was the only actor to appear in both the original series of Battlestar Galactica and its more recent reboot.

Hatch played Captain Apollo in the original sci-fi series and a different character - Tom Zarek - in the reboot from 2004 to 2009.

Star Trek actor George Takei wrote on Twitter: "Rest with the galactic stars, Richard Hatch."

Ronald D Moore, who created the rebooted version of Battlestar Galactica, described Hatch as "a good man, a gracious man, and a consummate professional".

"His passing is a heavy blow to the entire BSG family," Moore added.

Hatch's son Paul confirmed his father's death in a message posted on the actor's website: "He died peacefully with his family and friends at his side after a battle with pancreatic cancer."

Dave Prowse, who played Darth Vader in the original Star Wars trilogy, tweeted: "Very sad to hear about Richard Hatch #RIP #Apollo."

Edward James Olmos, who starred in the Battlestar Galactica reboot, added: "Richard Hatch you made our universe a better place We love you for it. Rest In Peace my friend."

Hatch's other acting work included an early role on All My Children in 1971 and appearances on Dynasty, The Love Boat, Santa Barbara and Baywatch.

Actor Bill Paxton has died, a family representative told The Huffington Post on Sunday. He was 61.

“It is with heavy hearts we share the news that Bill Paxton has passed away due to complications from surgery,” the rep said.

“A loving husband and father, Bill began his career in Hollywood working on films in the art department and went on to have an illustrious career spanning four decades as a beloved and prolific actor and filmmaker. Bill’s passion for the arts was felt by all who knew him, and his warmth and tireless energy were undeniable.”

Can't believe this. He's been in so many of my favourite movies and was a massive part of my childhood. Aliens tonight I think. :(

Worth mentioning his amazing performance in Near Dark (best 80s vampire movie)

Both Titanic and Frailty are on Netflix.

If I had a Blu-ray player set up, I would watch Aliens. I don't even know where the strawberry float my player is.

RIP Paxton.

For a second there, I thought we had the ability to embed BBC News videos.

RIP Chuck Berry. Hard to think of anyone else who's had as big an influence on the root of so much modern music.
