Damn, it sucks to see that. Especially from someone that has love for some pretty good movies. Empire Strikes Back, Robocop II, and Never Say Never Again.

R.I.P to one of the better directors.

Can we grieve Kershner's death and celebrate his work on Empire Strikes Back without childishly insulting George Lucas? Apparently not.

You'd be wise to remember that without Lucas, there would be no Empire Strikes Back.

Robocop 2 was amazing. I mean the first one was decent but what he did in the second one will never be forgotten.

You're kidding, right? Verhoeven's original is so smart that 2 just doesn't compare. Still, lots of respect to the guy for ESB.

This week sucks. First Nielsen and now this. Empire Strikes back was definitely the best Star Wars film.

Tom Bosley passed a couple weeks back. I hope these two complete the rule of three...not that I want people dying. Oh man, this is uncomfortable.
RIP Mr. Bosely, Kiershner and Nieslen.

You'd be wise to remember that with Lucas in complete control of the prequels he showed the world what a terrible filmmaker he really is.

That doesn't change anything. Without Lucas, there would have been no Star Wars, and without Star Wars, Kershner would never have had the opportunity to direct Empire Strikes Back.
