Cause of death now known

Nearly a year after his death, more is coming to light about Ray Liotta's death. The "Goodfellas" star died from respiratory insufficiency, pulmonary edema and acute heart failure, according to documents obtained by TMZ. In other words, Ray had heart and respiratory system issues, including fluid in his lungs. The 67-year-old died in May 2022 in his hotel room in the Dominican Republic, where he was filming the upcoming thriller "Dangerous Waters."

Seems like Mr. Liotta ignored his health deterioration

I recall really enjoying Vanishing Point back in the day. I'll have to re-watch it one of these days to see if it holds up.

I was like 8 years old and it's still one of the craziest endings ever, at least one of few I never forgot.

Don't watch if you never seen it or somehow forget it.

That was the movie where they used Chevy’s for all the crash scenes or something instead of Dodge out of reverence for Dodge or something?

Just 2 days ago I was listening to old O&A shows from 2004 and Pat Cooper was on, guy was great. I actually checked his wikipedia that day to see how old he was and if still alive. Great comic, so quick.

Fitting he died during Pride month since he blamed every bad thing in the world on the gays. He probably saw a rainbow and dropped dead.


How about this headline from Rolling Stone...

Robertson spent his entire life spreading superstitious nonsense and hate, grifted millions of dollars from dopey people and led a comfortable, privileged life. There is rarely any justice for these pieces of garbage.

Gay People were responsible for Hurricanes? They must have really been going at it because that doesnt make any goddamned sense.
