Christopher Lee died last weekend but I just heard about it this morning. I guess the Brits don't get as much publicity over here. Among other things, he played Saruman in LOTR and Scaramanga in the James Bond classic The Man with the Golden Gun.

I don't know that it was confirmed until yesterday afternoon. But yeah, very sad news.

His wife delayed the public announcement until the rest of his family was notified.

He was awesome, I loved this guy. Not a role he was well known form, but I liked him in Gremlins 2. He was the mad doctor.

Watching the last Hobbit movie was hard. He looked old in the other ones, but this one he could barely move. If you notice, he doesn't do much action when it's his part. He was a good choice for the roll I think though... and Count Duku or however you spell it.

He's been in declining health ever since Magneto broke his staff. RIP
