He's one of those classic "That guy" actors -- he's been in a zillion things, but rarely the star. A few examples:

He dies on Modern Family, then dies in real life. TMZ was kind to him in not bringing up the public masturbation thing from eight years ago.

That may or may not be his role of the most interest to folks here, but he's probably more widely known for other stuff, such as Seinfeld.

The Voyager cast just did an online reunion. I know he wouldn't have been invited since he wasn't main cast, but still, sad.
I can't say I'm a huge fan of this guy's work, but I acknowledge his importance in comic-book history, with key roles in the evolution of the Green Lantern, Green Arrow and Batman franchises:

sucks, damn it
as said before, he's the kind of actor I love, a "real Human Being", not a plastic droid
sigh oh well he'll be forever remembered for the LOTR and Hobbit filmsbut he did many other damn good things, too

He made a very good plastic droid.
88 years and with complications of a debilitating disease. Impressive. Bravo, Sr. Holm.
Joel Schumacher, 80, cancer:

In related news (since he directed Batman), Michael Keaton will apparently be playing Batman in the Flashpoint movie.
Carl Reiner, 98, natural causes.
He lived a full life. Good for him.
Poor Mel, though. He was known to still drive over and visit him every single day.
Carl Reiner was a legend, and a genius. He did so many things and from all I've read was a generous person as well.
