Sad news to wake up to this morning, as a kid of the 80's like so many growing up watching Ghostbusters/Stripes not to mention so many of his movies that he was behind the scenes as director or writer.

wow, thanks for sharing. i guess as we get older we expect more of the people we know when we were kids to fall off the perch, but it's still a shock when we hear it.

I heard about this earlier at work and was in disbelief :(
Great in ghost busters, but man wasn't stripes a good bit of gear!? I guess we will be seeing a lot of the greats from the 80s on their way out now unfortunately Rip mate |

Hoped this was a hoax. Wasn't he meant to be in the next ghostbusters?

RIP.
Was a film icon. Had a massive role in some of hollywoods best comedies. Most people dont realise just how much of an impact he had behind the scenes. |
