Roberto Orci passed away from kidney disease at the age of 51.  He was a writer for all three Kelvinverse Star Trek movies, the first two Bayverse Transfomers movies, and the Transformers Prime show, among other things, and a producer on many more.

Wow, that hits home, as I'm 53. While I can't say I'm a fan of his live action TF work, he and writing partner Alex Kurtzman changed my mind in a good way on Transformers: Prime, undoubtedly my favorite of their writing collaborations. He and Kurtzman, best friends from childhood, worked on a number of tv and film projects and Robert leaves behind quite a legacy, and no doubt a painful void for his friend and writing partner. Whatever your opinions of his work, his death signifies the sad loss of yet another incredibly creative force in movies and tv. RIP Mr. Orci.
