David Bowie RIP
From
CNN.com,
((Bowie died Sunday after an 18-month battle with
cancer, his publicist Steve Martin told CNN. "David
Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family after a
courageous 18 month battle with cancer," said a statement posted
on his official social media accounts. "While many of you will
share in this loss, we ask that you respect the family's privacy
during their time of grief." ))
I had now idea he had passed or
he was sick until I checked my wiki app on my phone. He was on the
front page. He was only 69 years old. While I knew about his early
work, but I remember his later work as being interesting to me.
For
pop cultural sake, I have to bring up Labyrinth
because you can't mention Bowie without this movie. It is such a
strange choice for a villain, but it works in a silly manner. And,
yes his pants and bulge should receive a credit in the movie. I also
remembered that he was married to the stunning woman Iman, the
shapeshifter in Star Trek VI, and stayed married to her until his
death. That is shocking because famous people don't stayed married
for long.
Of course there
was a long running gag on Venture Brothers about David Bowie being a
super villain, or at least a shapeshifter liking to look like Bowie.
I loved those moments on the show. “The guy from Labyrinth?”
I loved his
later songs.
Bowie's son is a film
director/producer named Duncan
Jones. He directed one of my favorite movie named Moon. And, I
loved Source Code, plus he's
doing the Warcraft movie. I had no idea he was Bowie's son.
