"When You Can Take The Pebble From My Hand..." David Carradine Dies, Aged 72



Quote:
Veteran actor David Carradine who played the title role in Kill Bill, has been found dead in a Bangkok hotel room.

Carradine, 72, who was in Thailand shooting a new film, was found by crew members after failing to turn up for a dinner.

The Nation newspaper quoted police sources as saying the actor was found hanged in his luxury room.

Carradine, who also starred in the cult 1970s TV series Kung Fu, was a leading member of a venerable Hollywood acting family which included his father, character actor John Carradine, and brother Keith.

Carradine appeared in more than 100 feature films with directors such as Martin Scorsese, Ingmar Bergman and Hal Ashby. One of his prominent early film roles was as singer Woody Guthrie in Ashby's 1976 biopic Bound For Glory.

But he was best known for his role as Kwai Chang Caine, a Shaolin priest travelling the 1800s American frontier West in the Kung Fu series shown in 1972-75. He reprised the role in a mid-1980s TV movie and played Caine's grandson in the 1990s syndicated series Kung Fu: The Legend Continues.

He returned to the top in recent years as the title character in Quentin Tarantino's two-part movie saga Kill Bill.

"There isn't anything that Anthony Hopkins or Clint Eastwood or Sean Connery or any of those old guys are doing that I couldn't do," he said. "All that was ever required was somebody with Quentin's courage to take and put me in the spotlight."

Bill was a complete contrast to his TV character Kwai Chang Caine, the soft-spoken refugee from a Shaolin monastery, serenely spreading wisdom and battling bad guys in the Old West. He left after three seasons, saying the show had started to repeat itself.

One thing remained a constant after Kung Fu: Carradine's interest in Oriental herbs, exercise and philosophy. He wrote a personal memoir called "Spirit of Shaolin" and continued to make instructional videos on tai chi and other martial arts.
The Press Association: David Carradine found dead in hotel

David Carradine was a very good actor who was boxed into a certain type of role, much like the careers of Alec Guiness or David Warner. However, Carradine was tough as a box of nails and disliked a lot of the work he did and didn't particulary care for fans either, as this picture well addresses.



He took a lot of flack - his family made fun of him for not only taking on the role in Kung Fu but people in the real world assuming he was asian. Its a sad end to a really good actor who was underwhelmed by his filmography.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

He took a role he was offered. Blame the producers for walking off with the idea.

What exactly is the rationale that leads from "actor #1 picked for role over actor #2" to "FUCK ACTOR #1"? I think you're looking for "FUCK THE CASTING DIRECTOR" if anything, that's three doors down and to your left, thanks for stopping by.

Hint: you don't cast people for broadcast television when their accent is thicker than molasses, hth

I was speaking idiomatically.

Cops: Carradine death may be accidental - Celebrities- msnbc.com

Quote:
Officials: ‘Kill Bill’ star found in closet with rope tied around neck, genitals

BANGKOK - The body of American actor David Carradine, best known for the 1970s TV series “Kung Fu,” was found in a hotel room closet with a rope tied to his neck and genitals, and his death may have been caused by accidental suffocation, Thai police said Friday.

The 72-year-old actor’s body was discovered Thursday in his luxury suite at Bangkok’s Swissotel Nai Lert Park Hotel. Police initially said they suspected suicide, though Carradine’s associates had questioned that theory and authorities later said no suicide note was found in his room.

Police Lt. Gen. Worapong Chewprecha told reporters that Carradine was found with a rope tied around his genitals and another rope around his neck.

“The two ropes were tied together,” he said. “It is unclear whether he committed suicide or not or he died of suffocation or heart failure.”

Thai police completed an autopsy on Carradine on Friday. But Police Col. Somprasong Yenthuam, superintendent of the Lumpini police station, which is handling the case, said results would not be ready for at least three weeks because the cause of death was unclear. He called the time lag “normal.”

Dr. Nanthana Sirisap, director of Chulalongkorn Hospital’s Autopsy Center, told reporters that the autopsy was conducted because of the “unusual circumstances surrounding Carradine’s death,” but did not elaborate.

Police Lt. Teerapop Luanseng had said Thursday that Carradine’s body was found “naked, hanging in a closet,” and that police at the time suspected suicide.

But one of Carradine’s managers dismissed the theory.
Tragic though it may be, at least we can say he went out in some kinky, filthy sex accident as opposed to some sort of pussy suicide thing.

What's all this "May not have been suicide" shit? Of course it was a sordid sex game gone wrong, what kind of fucking idiot ties up their cock when they hang themselves if they're just trying to commit suicide?

Also, when will people learn that auto-asphyxiation is only a good idea with someone you know, doing it with a rent boy is fucking retarded because when you start to die they'll probably run off with your wallet, rather than cut you down and call an ambulance.

At least he wasn't found with his knob in some 8 year old boy he confined in a rigor mortis death grip.

Who's to say he wasn't? The details to emerge have been sketchy at best thus far.

This is most unfortunate. I always liked him in Kung-Fu (both of them, curiously enough) and I wish he hadn't gone out like this. Or any way, for that matter.

You know what though? If you have to die, dying during orgasm ain't half bad. Theres a hell of a lot worse ways to go.

When things go wrong with autoerotic asphyxiation it's just as likely that he died with blue balls.

It is a pretty good troll that is obviously trolling yet his troll position is so stupidly obnoxious that you kind of want to argue with it despite knowing that it is a troll.

It is the troll singularity and I am paralyzed with indecision

Congratulations, you are now the Best Troll Ever

You have reached the top of an illustrious field and now you may retire with honor

In all seriousness, does Laissez's Faire even attempt serious discussion, or is it just a place for people to pretend they know what they're talking about while not using punctuation?

It's gotten to the point where seriousposts are sometimes indistinguishable from trolls, and even the obvious ones people will argue with. It is my dojo.

There were some people that wanted an end to frivolitry even though it's a joke forum, but I don't see why there can't be room for both, and that's ended up being the status quo.

Why would you want the internet to see the security video of you fleeing Carradine's room as the "experiment" goes awry?
