I was at a dinner last night, and this was one of the topics of conversation. Someone said that they would be surprised if Westboro Babtist didn't protest given "Brokeback Mountain". Sometimes it sucks to be right.
He could have had an undiagnosed heart condition, had a stroke (my uncle had one at 28) or any other number of things including allergic reactions, etc. He could have been really jetlagged and accidentally overdosed trying to get some sleep (I know EXACTLY what that's like these days). He could have killed himself. The Coen Brothers could have put a hit on him because he wasn't in "No Blood for Old Men". He could have logged on to TFP, started reading one of my overly long posts, slipped into a coma and stopped breathing. All of those possibilities are just as likely as anything else thrown out there at this point. Once the autopsy's done and released, then we can villify him to make ourselves feel superior.
I enjoyed most of his movies, even "10 Things I Hate About You". But he was an actor that I'd never even seen in person. This is sad, especially since he had a little one, but it has no impact on my life.
