Actor Louie Anderson died on the 21st. He wasn't well known here, but was host of a number of popular American TV game shows over the last 25 years (including Family Feud), so a lot of Americans would know him.
I just remember him best from Coming to America (with Eddie Murphy), as one of the employees at McDowells restaurant. (he didn't do a lot of Movie roles though)
And on the 20th, we lost Mr Meat Loaf. Probably best known for music, he also had a big resume of acting roles, on TV and on stage... including the one I remember most, being in the movie Fight Club).

Do like the idea of a yearly thread rather than individual posts
Loaf was also turned into roast meat in Rocky Horror where I most knew him from acting. And most people prefers the first Bat album, whilst I always preferred Bat 2

Last Saturday (12th FEB), the director of the original 1994 Ghostbusters, Ivan Reitman died. His son Jason directed this year's Ghostbusters Afterlife, so it was good to see that he was around long enough to see the next chapter done within the family.
Ivan didn't direct a lot of movies for someone of his age, but most of the ones he did during the 80s and 90s were iconic or well-known.

Just days after another cricket legend too (Rod Marsh).
Last night I was watching this week's gogglebox episode that featured a Warne doco about his life, so it was a bit ominous for the doco to be done and then he dies.
A heart attack at only 52 (he was a self confessed heavy smoker for the first half of his life)... but not much older than many of us who were first into TFs from the very beginning.
