Gene Hackman : Hollywood legend dies aged 95

Am I missing something or is this really strange?

It is really strange. My best guess: carbon monoxide poisoning?

Great actor. I particularly remember Crimson Tide, No Way Out, The Royal Tenenbaums, and of course Superman.

It's also kind of strange that basically the entire cast of Superman is gone now.

Thanks, hadn't even considered CO poisoning. For some reason it registered in my head as a mass suicide sort of thing. This makes more sense, hopefully that's all it is.

Apologies for impolite formating.

This is a 2 pack. There are better ones, too. If you don't have one already, don't wait another day. Hundreds of people die preventable deaths each year in the US because of this.

Amen, brother. RIP.
