    Aug 19, 2012 - Tony Scott Died in Apparent Suicide #1

    Tony Scott Commits Suicide | Badass Digest

    Tony Scott, Director of 'Top Gun,' Dies in Apparent Suicide | The Wrap Movies

    BREAKING: Film director Tony Scott jumps to his death from Vincent Thomas Bridge - ContraCostaTimes.com

    This is tragic news. Still was waiting for more confirmation from other sources, as both cite Los Angeles coroner. Now many others have confirmed it.

    Deja Vu was his last film that I saw at the theatre.

    RIP Tony Scott.

    yeah, just announced on KFI that LA county coroner confirmed it was Tony Scott. A note was found in his car parked on the bridge....


    I'm stunned by this and saddened for his family and friends.

    RIP Mr. Scott

    Completely saddening and unexpected. That is the second brother Ridley has lost. My condolences go out to all who are affected. RIP Mr. Scott.

    Hmm. I'm a fan of several of his films. His movies have kind of a unique style.

    He was a cancer survivor and word is that he may have found out his had returned after years of remission. Having to endure the treatments all over again may have been too much for him to take. Also, they reported someone tried to jump from the same bridge earlier the same day but was stopped - wonder if it was him.

    Damn. Its a harsh world sometimes. Tony Scott never seemed to get the critical fame he deserved for some reason ,despite being a very talented director and producer. "Enemy of the State" and "Crimson Tide" are still two of the best thrillers I ever saw in a cinema and they remain pretty difficult to beat even to this day. This will hit his family and Ridley so very hard. Rest in Peace.

    I agree. One of my favorite movies is his first one, The Hunger (1983).
