I had started a post after Brad Renfro died, saying that I thought this might be the Year of the Dead Celebrity. I nixed the posting in case I was perceived to be starting off 2008 on the wrong foot (as did Brad Renfro – *ahem*). With Heath Ledger apparently topping himself today, though, my I make my Cassandran prediction public.
Strangely enough, I thought the Grim Reviewer would be starting with the no-talent headline queens. Instead we’ve got two critical darlings with top billing.
