[quote]Some incredibly sad news to report today. Per The Chicago
Tribune, writer/director/actor Harold Ramis has died at the age
of 69. Often taking a notable creative role in the projects he
appeared in, he of course co-wrote as well as starred in
Ghostbusters. He was also the writer and director of classics
like Caddyshack and Groundhog Day. He also directed the first
installment of the National Lampoon’s Vacation series and the
writer of Animal House, Meatballs and Back To School.
He had also been making a late career resurgence appearing in
films like Knocked Up and Walk Hard. Not only did I immensely
enjoy his work as a writer and director, I found his screen
presence to be genuinely warm and human and I’m going to miss
not seeing more of him.
According to the Tribune his death was a result of
“complications of autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis, a rare
disease that involves swelling of the blood vessels.” He had
apparently been battling the disorder since 2010. Our thoughts
go out to his friends and family. [/quote]

Shocking and sad to hear about Ramis. I'm a big fan of his, in
front of and behind the camera. RIP.

Loved Bill Murray's shout-out for Ramis during the Oscars
tonight.
