Corey Haim, anyone surprised?

[nervas]

Was anyone actually surprised at this news? I actually was quite a fan of the Corey's back in the day. Still appreciate some of what they did, Lucas, Goonies, Lost Boys, License to Drive... Sad, because he was pretty young, 38, but can't say I'm surprised.

Well, hey Feldman is still around.

I'm only surprised that he didn't die much sooner.

I'm more surprised we have a thread-Farrah didn't get a thread despite the poster...when does the madness end?????

Well, hey Feldman is still around.

Is that the silver lining or the dark cloud?

I remember some discussions about Farrah after her death but it may have been in the Jacko thread.

It was kind of funny that Danny Bonaduce was on the TV about him. It is sad that all of that childhood fame and notoriety is a precursor to dysfunction in later life. Unless they keep making money-oh that's right I did just mention Michael Jackson.

I wasn't surprised because I had never heard of him until yesterday.

Ah, not sure, but the 15th movie I've watched this year was South Beach Academy starring Corey Feldman, and hey, it made me laugh for a total of maybe 3 minutes out of the 90 minutes it played on the dvd player. Hey it was like $1.00 at Big Lots and it seemingly fell into my cart as I looked for cheap picture frames.

I'm sad to see Haim dead, but not surprised. I watched nearly every damn episode of The Two Coreys. Like a train wreck, couldn't keep my eyes off it. Haim said he was clean, but there were a few episodes where you know he had to be on something.
