Really sad. I haven't read any of his books, but the fact that he wrote them, I respect that. 
Is that a nod to Zoolander?

Totally.

Actually, the guy  directed one of my favourite sci-fi films: Westworld!

Hahaha. Great Zoolander reference.

I've read a number of Crichton books. I liked them all. And Jurassic Park was great.

Not film-related but still...

Mitch Mitchell of Jimi Hendrix Experience Dies Early Wed.

That sucks.  He was an amazing drummer.  The Hendrix Experience clearly kicks ass.

Singer-actress Eartha Kitt has died at age 81

I'll miss her, she was such a unique talent.

Agreed and she will always be Catwoman.

Oh, Harold Pinter died today too.   :(
