I went to bed hoping Suge Knight would be the 3rd Celebrity to die after Robin Williams and Lauren Bacall. Instead I woke up with the horrifying news of Richard Attenborough's passing. Attenborough was an uncanny Kris Kringle, and he was awesome as Big X in The Great Escape, but he will always be John Hammond to my generation. Now I desperately need to watch Jurassic Park and Jeff Goldblum. And it must be before football season starts up again on Thursday night. On a related note, I laughed out loud when I saw this hilariously awful trailer on reddit last week. After the Jurassic Park mania, Theodore Rex somehow got green-lit and "spared no expense" in becoming the most expensive direct-to-video film ever made at the time of its release. Theodore Rex also has the distinction of being the only direct-to-video film ever nominated for a Razzie.
