    Yeah, ness. It's him.

    Incredibly sad news. Great talent and he seemed like such a great man. R.I.P Mr. Duncan. You'll be missed.

    Michael Clarke Duncan must have suffered ridiculous damage to his heart to have never left the hospital after a July heart attack; can't help but wonder if he suffered more heart attacks while in the hospital. Just 'wow'. Omarosa was on the radio several weeks ago and said he was doing well....guess not. Scary.

    Oh, boy.

    Wow.

    RIP, Michael.

    You were here such a short time.

    Agreed.

    Matter of fact, that's what blew me sideways.

    I thought SURELY he'd gotten better --- or as better as one might expect after a heart attack --- and had been released weeks ago.

    You never, ever know what's around the corner, do you?

    We were just stunned. MCD was one of my favorite actors.

    Wow, even after the heart attack in July, I thought he'd recover. I'm totally shocked and so sad. I loved him

    Re: Rest In Peace.

    His list of credits fail to mention his co-starring role on the one-up season of The Finder last year. I really enjoyed his work on that show, not having seen his other work.

    RIP Michael Clark Duncan

    Oh no! That just so absolutely sucks!! He seemed like such a nice man.... I feel so bad about him. He was breathtaking in The Green Mile. I remember how excited he was to be at the Academy awards and to be nominated.
