    Default David Carradine commits suicide

    Just read about it. So sad. His life really seemed to be taking a turn for the better. I loved him in Kill Bill, and I think he brought a quality even to his cheesy B movies. I guess we really don't know what demons people harbor, regardless of how things appear on the exterior.

    I was sad to hear of his passing as well. Suicide should never be the answer...

    I'm waiting to see if it was an accident. One of the reports says he was found sitting in the wardrobe with curtain ties wound around himself. They're saying suicide, but I'm not sure that sounds right.

    Still, it's sad to lose such a talented actor who brought pleasure to many through his work.

    I had heard he had died, but not of suicide. So sad to hear this. I used to use one of his TaiChi tapes. He seemed pretty centered.

    His family is asking the FBI to look into his death. It's not clear that it was suicide.

    I'll miss him - such a great talent

    So sad. If it was suicide, it just proves that money doesn't bring happiness. I would rather be poor and be satisfied with my life and have my family and friends around me.

    I don't think it was suicide. He just didn't seem like the type..... Only tine will tell..........He will be missed.....

    I doubt it was suicide from what I read...what he was engaged in might have gone wrong. RIP.
