NOOOOOOO!
Fuck this! Why do we have to live in a time where all the awesomest people die?

Christopher Lee was awesome. He was a great actor and voice actor. He even had his own metal band.
He was the first English-speaking person I knew of who voiced a character in both English and German (that being King Haggard in The Last Unicorn).

Rest in Peace, Sir Christopher Lee.

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

Damn. It's always sad to see a legend like him go.

[CheesecakeRecipe]

Wait, I'm seeing reports this is a hoax?
http://en.mediamass.net/people/christopher-lee/deathhoax.html

Is this true or not? I'm confused.

Mediamass is a parody site, they have a "death hoax" bot which generates articles automatically for most celebrity names you enter into it.

 

[obin_gam]

Too young.

 

[Anung]

Fuck man He did look very frail in recent media appearances.

He earned his place as a legend of cinema though.

 

[Rentahamster]

Aw man, he was awesome

 

[raphier]

Lol, it's a hoax?

 

[Muskieratboi]

He's not dead. He's just gone back to his Rejuvenaton chamber for his thousand year slumber.

Rest in peace, Christopher. May you reawaken in the next millenia and amaze future generations.

 

[Original Famous Ray]

Ah thanks, friend of mine sent that to me, so I really wasn't sure any more. Thanks for clarifying.

 

[Pooya]

He had the most magnificent voice. RIP. Really miss him. His roles, I can't see anyone else in them, just perfect every time.

 

[Eighty Deuce]

Everyone knew this day was not that far off. I wish I could experience a quarter of his life, what a ride.

As others have said, it's a parody site, BTW I can't believe it hasn't been banned from GAF yet, we have the same problem everytime a famous person died.

Man, this guy was a badass. RIP Mr. Lee

A true legend. RIP.
