Alan Rickman is on my list of underrated actors that I could watch in anything and would pay to watch them read the phone book.
His performance in Dogma was great, and as amazingly cute/hot as Zooey Deschanel was in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, it was Rickman's performance that made that movie almost barely passable.
As Snape he made you feel for the bad guy, who in the end was actually one of the good guys. Which made you feel for him that much more.
I'm sad. This affects me more than Bowie did (no disrespect to David Bowie) but Rickman was one of my favs.
