    Only 27 and really only at the beginning of his career. Very sad.

    Not in the least, hero. It was completely serious, I'll get you a tissue.

    So it looks like he was at his gate but for some reason it wouldn't open so he got out to investigate. His car was in neutral and rolled into him, crushing him against the gate.

    Simple question. No need to be defensive.

    You're free to make light of someone's death, if that's what floats your boat.

    He's determined to be a prick, regardless of what the topic is. He has succeeded here. The topic is about the tragic death of Anton Yelchin, not Mr. NOT so Great.

    And his response is to continue making the thread about himself, rather than Anton Yelchin. Pretty pathetic display.

    I'm not talking to you buddy. I was talking to Deckard.

    But going ahead and keep talking about yourself, rather than simply say..."sorry, bad joke" like ppl do..then we move on. Not that hard to do.

    He was a good actor. Kind of under the radar but once you start going through his movies, realize he was in a lot more than you remember. RIP

    I'm not your buddy, guy.

    And as policy, I don't apologize simply because some whiners complain about something I do. I'll take note of the complaints, I might even send tissues, but I see no reason for apology in this instance.

    Anton Yelchin's Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo never got the fix that very likely could have saved his life ... TMZ has learned.

    According to NHTSA docs, obtained by TMZ, the recall on Yelchin's SUV had not been addressed -- meaning he was susceptible to the PARK problem with the shifter.

    The recall notice went out on May 14, 2016 ... and says, "Drivers may inadvertently fail to achieve the PARK position before exiting."

    As we've reported, the problem is a driver might think the car is safely parked, when it's actually in neutral.
