    RIP David Carradine,

    I still thought he was alright in Kung Fu (but hey that's just me, although Bruce would have been several hundred times better but then again that's just me as well)

    Either way its sad and believe it or not I'll actually miss him once in awhile.

    BUT...

    I have never seen a single Chinese movie that had a non-Chinese in a leading role.

    It's the same everywhere, and Hollywood is hardly the worst.
    Chinese films aren't casting Chinese in the roles of Caucasians & saying this is white person. Hollywood is rife with whites in Asian roles!

    It seems it was death via "misadventure":
    Sex act eyed in Carradine death
    By WENN.COM


    Director Martin Scorsese and actor Michael Madsen have paid tribute to David Carradine, who died on Thursday.

    The Kill Bill star's naked body was discovered hanging in a Bangkok, Thailand hotel suite. Local reports suggested he committed suicide but a statement from Carradine's representative indicates the actor died when a sex act went wrong.

    Rumours Carradine died attempting auto-erotic asphyxiation - where victims achieve heightened sexual pleasure by restricting their air supply - are backed up by a quote a Bangkok police officer gave to British newspaper The Sun.

    Stars from the big screen have offered their fond memories of the actor, who had a career spanning back to the 1960s.

    Madsen, Carradine's co-star in Quentin Tarantino's martial arts films Kill Bill Vols. 1 & 2., is still in shock after hearing of the demise of his friend - a man he regarded as his "brother".

    The pair had a close relationship after starring together in the fighting franchise movies and regularly kept in touch between projects.


    Madsen reveals he was planning to contact the actor just last week - and will forever regret not picking up the phone.

    He says, "David was one of the first actors I ever worked with when I started my career and the closest person to a brother that I ever had in my life. It is shocking to me that he is no longer with us.

    "I had been thinking about calling him for the last several days and advise anybody who has been thinking about reaching out to a loved one to do so. I have so many great memories of David that I wouldn't even know where to begin. He has a very special place in my heart."

    Director Scorsese, who worked with the late actor on 1972 movie Boxcar Bertha, recalls Carradine being a "wonderful spirit" who dedicated his life to making movies.

    He says, "I was deeply saddened by the news of David Carradine's passing. We met when we made Boxcar Bertha together, almost 40 years ago. I have very fond memories of our time together on that picture and on Mean Streets, where he agreed to do a brief cameo. David was a great collaborator, a uniquely talented actor and a wonderful spirit. He loved movies, acting in movies, making movies and he was always extremely generous."

    And the producers of what was to be Carradine's next project are also mourning the loss of the "irreplaceable" star.

    Adrian Salpeter and Elizabeth Levine, executive producers of indie film Portland, released a joint statement saying, "An actor of David Carradine's stature behind our film meant the world to us. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time.

    "The team is committed to this film and are considering other actors to replace the irreplaceable David Carradine. The producers and all involved are moving forward with the production in his memory. Mr. Carradine was truly a living legend of stage and screen, having worked with Martin Scorsese, Hal Ashby, Ingmar Bergman and Quentin Tarantino, among many others, in a career that spanned nearly five decades."

    The film's writer/director Matthew Mishory adds, "Every filmmaker aspires to work with an iconic actor like David Carradine. He was one of a kind."

    What a horrible way to go, because he won't be remembered for his many accomplishments but as the guy that died jerking off in the closet.

    Auto-erotic asphixation is actually a more common practice than many know or care to admit.
    Used by many MA cults in the past, and probably in the present.

    if it does turn out to be the case it sure is comical in its own right... each to their own... i like to look for the ridiculous in everything.

    when i was a kid we would take real fast deep breaths and then hold one in, cross our arms, and someone would come and give a bear hug from behind... you usually passed out in like 10 seconds. once i did it to my younger brother and right when he passed out, i rolled him up like a burrito in a blanket with his arms at his side and quickly turned out the lights in the room... you should've heard him scream when he finally regained consciousness... priceless.

    the first time I went to Mandalay Bay hotel in Las Vagas.

    there are oxygen bars.

    there are different colors of oxygen, we may inhale.

    more oxygen is better.

    but pure oxygen may be harmful, too.
