Now I don't feel so bad about taking so long to make something.

«MGM’s film catalog includes “12 Angry Men,” “Basic Instinct,” “Creed” and “Rocky,” “Legally Blonde,” “Moonstruck,” “Poltergeist,” “Raging Bull,” “Robocop,” “Silence of the Lambs,” “Stargate,” “Thelma & Louise,” “Tomb Raider,” “The Magnificent Seven,” “The Pink Panther,” “The Thomas Crown Affair” and, of course, the James Bond series. On the TV front, the studio has produced “Fargo,” “The Handmaid’s Tale” and “Vikings.”

That’s interesting news. Must include lots of classics.

Maybe I’ll finally watch Raging Bull.

Unfounded rumor is that Bruce Willis has dementia. I don't think I'm ready for the death of Die Hard himself.

[bada]

His acting career died 25 years ago.

What are you talking about, he made like 50 movies last year

Nobody saw any of them but still, he has no trouble getting work

Bruce Willis retiring from acting after aphasia diagnosis

[BurtReynolds]

[Strat]

[BurtReynolds]

Brain injury disturbs me more than anything health related.

[VinylGuy]

fuuuuuuck

Poor Bruce.

Dementia runs in my wife's family. She's pretty sure it's something she'll have. We've already started talking about it and planning. It's pretty terrifying, to be honest.

fuuuuuuck

Poor Bruce.

Loved him growing up.

Scary stuff, man. My grandfather died of Alzheimer's, it's brutal. My grandma on the other side had some mild form of dementia with no physical effects, but spent the last 10-15 years of life not remembering what happened a few min earlier (still lived to 101!). Either way, it sucks for them but is actually a huge burden on the families.

I'm so sorry to hear you and your family have had to deal with this. I'm sure it was just fucking terrible.

The burden on me (we aren't having kids) is one of the big topics that my wife brings up when we talk about it. She has some very clear wants/needs and I plan on respecting those if this ends up affecting her. But holy fuck am I not ready for that.

I hear ya... it's in my family, and honestly I don't fear what dementia would do to me as much as I fear what it'd do to my wife and kids (I have 3). It's a terrible & weird disease. My grandfather laid in a hospital bed for the last 2 years, but didn't really know. He thought he was a young man who got there yesterday and was leaving tomorrow... every single day. It was his wife and my mom who were constantly stressed and burdened.
