Who sleeps shall awake, greeting the shadows from the sun
Who sleeps shall awake, looking through the window of our lives
Waiting for the moment to arrive...
Show us the silence in the rise,
So that we may someday understand...

I was literally floored by this news. Didn't even know the guy was sick. Geez this has been a real sucky year to be a celeb.

Here's a list of his films i've actually seen:

What's The Worst That Could Happen?
Mr. 3000
Ocean's Eleven
Transformers
Charlie's Angels 2

My favorite line from him is from Mr. 3000 when he says over the phone (and in front of a group of kindergarteners) "2.997 hits?! Man, that's bull[bleep]!"

I had to do that. I'm not comfortable using foul language.
