Buckshee, I was out tonight and only found out a little earlier and made my thoughts known fairly late. This is a thread giving our regret, so understandably your comments are seen as inappropriate.
Incidentally, I would see the same about Pete doherty, he is a great talent, but we know where it will end up.
Frankly buckshee you're not looking to make an opinion or have a debate. You're scratching to make an ill-informed, tapped out, cliched, thought by pompous judgement, small minded comment in order to aggravate. I'm sure his kids and family really value your moral stance in denigrating their loved one.
I think any sane person would love to not have you're moralising inability to forgive in their family.
Fair enough , everytime in future I read about someone having died of an OD in the paper from now on no matter who it may be from Fred Bloggs to someone famous and seemingly more deserving (according to some) then I'll start a thread on it ok?
His role was made even harder because he never met the guy he played - CIA operative Gust Avrakatos - who died before the movie was made but the real Charlie Wilson (also now dead) described Hoffman's performance as "spine chilling."

and there speaks an adult that doesn't need to resort to name calling.
Was great as Lester Bangs in the very good "Almost Famous".
Absurdistan, it came up on my twitter feed. Sorry for taking an interest in the world beyond "would yas" and Big Brother
Buckshee, so what if he was a drug user. How many of the 80s/90s bands you are into never over did drugs. "Don't ask for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee"
Absolutely disgusting exploiting children like that, how many drug users which are parents have od'd in the past? I've never seen the angle taken like this, those poor kids, heart goes out to them at this sad time, Murdoch you should feel ashamed of yourself!
He was like a serious Steve Buscemi, in that he was not often the lead character in films but would often steal the film. I did not know he had addiction problems but I am not surprised, he always seemed to be the kind of actor consumed by his "art".
RIP (if the scum media allow it) and sympathies to his family.
My favorite Phillip Seymour Hoffman role was in a little seen film called Flawless from 1999. He plays a transvestite who is befriended by his neighbor played by Robert De Niro . If you get a chance to get it on DVD it's well worth it.

I do find the actual 'RIP' thing inane - particularly for a popular millionaire who apparently jabbed himself in the arm with too much heroin and died leaving three kids aged under 11 without a father, who blatantly wouldn't have wanted to go that way, and certainly wouldn't be at peace - but there's nothing wrong with sharing memories in a time of reflection.
Here's a gallery of his film roles, in case you forgot some...

A junkie dies with a needle in his arm that none of you know and everyone wants to offer their respects. Getting like an LFC forum on here.
A fine actor and - it always seemed to me - a decent man.
RIP

.....I thought it had to be a hoax.
It wasn't.
All of Murdoch's papers aren't worth the paper they're printed on.
