Dead celebs in the credits scene
So many have died since this movie came out.
You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude.
Five have died. That's not an unusual amount or anything remarkable.
shareI would beg to differ.

Beg all you'd like. People die in life all the time. There are over 90 people listed in the cast. Who has died? Jeff Conaway from a drug issue, Gary Coleman from a stroke, Corey Haim from a drug issue, Fred Barry from a stroke, Ron Palillo from a heart attack. Two drug deaths and 3 health problems. Not usual and in a general population, fairly par for the course. No auto accidents, but read the local paper for obituaries. It HAPPENS every frickin' day dude!

You don't know what you're talking about. Do you have first-hand knowledge of the personal lives, health histories or deaths of any of these people?
It's stupid to compare and contrast details from obituaries of C-list celebrities.
The researchers who compare and contrast Dr. Conrad Murray with Dr. George Nichopoulos have evidence to work with, and a lot of people potentially could pay attention to them.
When that evidence indicates the causes of their patients' deaths are complicated and disputable, publishers have financial incentives to assign researchers to dig further. Such is not the case with a single dead person who appears in Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star. You know nothing about the integrity, or lack of integrity, of their medical doctors or other healthcare personnel. You don't know how Fred Berry, Gary Coleman or Ron Palillo communicated with their doctors and other caregivers. Communication is everything when sick people get care and when people who think they are healthy get medical check-ups and tests.
May everyone in Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star who has passed on rest in peace and privacy. Instead of investigating, comparing and contrasting, just enjoy them for what they gave to audiences.
What filmmaker and that has nothing to do with the original poster saying so many have died in the closing credits scene. That's ALL this discussion is about. You ramble on inanely and nearly incoherently. There's no evidence at ALL that the health problem deaths were related in any way to drug use. You're conjecting something that is not in the equation. Gary Coleman had lifelong health problems, Fred Barry had a weight problem, Ron Palillo died at 63 years old from a heart attack. None of those were related to drug use. There's no connection anywhere anytime between the original post and the director of Dickie Roberts. You prattle on. You're lost.
share** There's no evidence at ALL that the health problem deaths were related in any way to drug use. **
There's no evidence that you know of that pharmaceutical drugs had anything to do with their deaths. Unless you knew any of them or their loved ones personally, then you're not one to talk. You don't know if Coleman, Berry (correct spelling) or Palillo took medications after getting prescriptions filled at pharmacies.
Many people survive to middle age without using any narcotics, but few last that long without ever taking pharmaceutical drugs. Suspicions about pharmaceutical drugs contributing to middle-age deaths have become so common that you have to talk to loved ones of the deceased in order to rule out those possibilities. They don't tell obituary writers everything.
If you believe Dr. Conrad Murray is the only bad doctor and Mutual Pharmaceutical Company is the only bad business of its kind, then you're pretty naive.
The Food and Drug Administration doesn't guarantee anything.
** You're conjecting something that is not in the equation. **
You're imagining an equation without agreeing with others on which branch of math they're studying.
** Gary Coleman had lifelong health problems, Fred Barry had a weight problem, Ron Palillo died at 63 years old from a heart attack. None of those were related to drug use. **
And you know a lot about what doctors may have prescribed these middle-aged people ... how?
Fred Berry is the correct spelling.
** You prattle on. You're lost. **
My mind found itself. The lost people include those who have discussions based entirely on celebrity obituaries, not at all on first-hand knowledge.
