What is it with these nutters advertising a nudist site and using some ones suicide report to advertise the fact they want to sell their ar*e on a secluded beach some where. Its about the sickest thing i have seen for weeks.MSN should be monitoring this site more to deter these sick ba**ards.

Can whoever keeps spamming this comments section about "age-gap dating" please show some respect for the deceased and p**s the hell off! NO-ONE CARES! We're here to show our respect and condolences to the family of Tony Scott.
I didn't actually know of Tony Scoot but I LOVED the movie top gun and I came across this article. It's so sad when anyone reaches that desperate point in their lives where they feel the only option is to end it.
You made an awesome film Tony and by the sound of it many other amazing films too. R.I.P!

Yes, definitely well said Sally - fed up with all these idiots advertising dating websites especially when done while normal people are showing their respects! RIP Tony - awsome films - my thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Man of Fire is 1 of my favourite films of all time.
So sad for his family, including his equally talented brother, Ridley.
Such a talented, sucessful man; such a waste :'-(

Well said Preston John. I have reported blatant sick advertising and disgusting contributions until I am weary. MSN need to moderate their site properly or risk being closed down in the name of decency ...
R.I.P. Tony Scott, such a talented man. My condolences to his family and friends.

Tragic loss to the world of film. Tony had that rare quality of creating intelligent action films that stay with the viewer long after the credits have rolled. True Romance is a prime example. The way he brought Tarantino's script to celluloid and played so many great character actors off against each remains a joy to watch. Crimson Tide was also a real standout, pitting Gene Hackman and Denzil Washington against each other in that claustrophibic atmosphere and creating a tension fueled tour de force. It is sad whenever anybody takes their own life and it is particularly tragic when suicide seems the only way out. Tony was a genius and I will miss his movies, but his legacy will live forever.

Thanks for some truly great films! RIP!

Don't usually use these tweets but hearing of the recent tragedy I could not pass by without leaving my condolences.. I remember Black Hawk Down and how that made a bench mark for visceral cinema making. Sympathies go out to the family.
