We are very sad to report the news that iconic filmmaker Richard Donner has passed away. Perhaps best known for his iconic 1978 “Superman,” Donner was also behind such films as “Ladyhawke,” “The Goonies,” “Lethal Weapon,” and “Scrooged.”
This sad news was confirmed by Donner’s wife, Lauren Schuler Donner.
Richard Donner was 91.
Mary Anne Butler
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
