not many people are aware of the fact that Peter Graves and James Arness were brothers... Rip Peter Graves
Anybody want to predict who's next? I used to participate in a celebrity death pool years ago, but haven't signed up in quite some time. Actually almost won one year. Pretty decent cash prize to the winner.
A good guess might be......Olivia de Havilland (gotta be close to 100).
cbel - No it isn't...LOL It's not like you are killing them or wishing them dead, but trying to guess who will be next.
You get more points if you predict people who are less likely to die. Example: if you pick someone who is ancient and/or very ill you get less points than a shocker. Brittany Murphy must have been worth a ton ;-)
I was wondering why I mistook Janes Arness for him while watching "Them!" yesterday. The voice and the look at that age were so similar. Peter Graves was James Arness' younger brother but if you check the imdb, you find he had a very long career:

If you check the "see more" part of James Arness' bio at the imdb, you find that Peter (Aurness) Graves convinced James to take a radio class after James was injured in WWII, which helped begin the path which led to acting:

Odd trivia in "Them" was that Fess Parker was in it just before he played Davy Crockett and Leonard Nimoy was in an uncredited role as well!
