I'm somewhat annoyed at how patronising some of the tributes have been with regards to his disability. John Humphrys needs a punch to the manbits.
 
Studio Ghibli co-founder Isao Takahata has passed away at age 82.

He's career as movie director at Ghibli involved:

* Grave of the Fireflies
* Only Yesterday
* Pompoko
* My neighbors the Yamada
* The Tale of The Princes Kaguya

One of the greatest directors ever. RIP :( . Anime wouldn't (and won't) be the same without him - Horus was revolutionary and so much all of what he directed (TV and film) are classics. I know it's silly to get upset over the Oscars, but I'll always be mad about Kaguya getting robbed.

Gotta say, whenever I see this thread appear in "new posts" and I haven't already heard anything in the news, I start to panic :P. WHO DIED NOW!? Probably because most people dying now were in their prime or just past it in popular culture during my youth, and it'll be that way probably for another couple of decades or so yet :P. My childhood literally dying a second death, or third (re: everyone who turned out to be a paedophile :P).
