Shame it was a drug overdose. Personally, I wouldn't take any drug where I had to inject it via syringe. I'm not even that afraid of needles, but the idea of drugs that way scares me. Shame it had to claim another life.

RIP Mr. Hoffman.
 
Sorry for the cursing, but reading some of these headlines is pissing me the fuck off. Pathetic journalism when they have to fucking write " Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman found dead - OD WITH NEEDLE IN HIS ARM HERP DERP" . Yes, that is how he died, but they emphasize the last part so much.

I apologize, this news has put me in a bad mood.
 
Didn't even last as long as the other Hoffman...

At least he got to be The Master. We've lost one of the great actors of our time, possibly to heroin withdrawal too; he's joining Crawford and Fontaine in the echelons now!

Idiotic headline for an idiotic way to die. Don't see any fault there.

Media is always awful in these situations and prey on the emotions of their viewers.

Reporting the facts is pathetic journalism?

Dying from a drug overdose is just such a dumb and shitty way to go.
 
I need to rewatch Synecdoche, New York.
I think it's his masterpiece in a long fucking line of outstanding performances.
But watching that movie tonight would crush me. I have tears in my eye thinking about it.
 
This is still some sucky news, but just remember kids....

He was one of my all time favourites, and very under rated (I say that knowing he was very much appreciated, but could have been moreso).

Can't think of a role he played that I didn't enjoy.

Boogie Nights, PunchDrunk Love, Doubt, Red Dragon, Capote come to mind, but he was great in everything.

Makes me very sad. Also means they'll have to replace him in the Hunger games movies, something I hate, even for actors replaced for minor roles.
 
Please don't be a Carradine...
You can't really even remember that guy respectfully because of that shit. Dieing in an embarassing moment completely trivialized your entire life's work.

TMZ is always pretty classy about these types of situations.
 
For all the people going "Drugs, huh? What an idiot" - fuck you.

Drug addiction is not some joke. It's not something you just shake off by "sucking it up." It's a deep, deep need that invades your mind every waking moment, that makes you feel incomplete and lifeless every second you don't have that drug coursing through your body.

It can ruin anyone's life - this is the proof. Hoffman was clearly an intelligent man, with a great career and a family. It only takes a single hit of heroin for it to consume your life forever.
