First celebrity where I've actually been personally sad they died.
No one is celebrating the fact that he was a heroine junkie, Shellshock, you dumbass. We're not even celebrating him as a person, really. We're saying that he was a great actor and that we really enjoyed his movies and now that he's dead we can't say "boy i'm really excited for ____....yeah Phillip Seymour Hoffman is in it." You might not think that's a bummer, but then again, your point of references are John Denver and some golfer.
