(In my opinion, of course.) Last week, death-happy Twitterers reported that Goldblum, star of movies like "The Fly," "Jurassic Park" and the recent Holocaust flick "Adam Resurrected," had died while filming a movie in New Zealand.</p> <p>I had a mild heart attack when a friend gave me the news, but given that it wasn't being reported anywhere else, I figured the erstwhile Dr. Malcolm was simply the victim of a Twitter prank.</p> <p>Being the good-natured hot Jew that he is, Goldblum appeared on "The Colbert Report" the other night to clear up the confusion about his demise. Colbert, however, refused to believe that Twitter was wrong. Hilarity ensued.
