Maybe it's just a generational thing, but it seems that a lot of great names have been passing on lately. Here is a partial list of
2004 celebrity deaths. Maybe I just believe that except for some standouts like Tom Hanks, modern celebrities just don't seem to have the same appeal as ones from the 70's and earlier. I don't really hate him, but I won't be anywhere near as sad about Brad Pitt passing on as I did about Henry Fonda, or will about Sean Connery or any former member of Monty Python.
I don't think it would be fair to lose Ray Charles and James Brown in the same year.
BTW, here is a creepy site based on the concept of the Dead Pool.
