What a wonderful idea!

TCM announced that it will be running a 24 hour Elizabeth Taylor movie marathon in tribute to the late actress's prolific and fabulous career!

Not only that, but BIO has announced that it will be showing a two hour intimate special on her life!

The TCM tribute will be showing on April 10th, starting at 6 am, and will include both of her Oscar award-winning roles, Butterfield 8 at 8 p.m. and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? at 10 pm (eastern).

The full schedule can be seen after the jump.

Liz, we're all going to miss you! This is a perfect way for us to remember how amazing your life had been.

Elton John, who was a close friend to Elizabeth Taylor, is mourning the passing of the Hollywood icon.

He says:

"We have just lost a Hollywood giant. More importantly, we have lost an incredible human being."

So true, Elton, so true.

The two had been long time partners in AIDs related activism. Such important work, so caring!

She will be missed, and our thoughts continue to support her family and friends during this time.

Elizabeth Taylor died early Wednesday morning at Cedar's Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, PerezHilton.com has confirmed.

So sad!!!!!

A legend has left us!

"She was surrounded by her children- Michael Wilding, Christopher Wilding, Liza Todd, and Maria Burton," Taylor's publicist, Sally Morrison, confirmed in a statement.

Dame Elizabeth had been hospitalized for some time due to congestive heart failure, and as we reported a few weeks ago, was in deteriorating health.

The iconic actress was 79 years old.

Not only was she one of the most memorable screen stars of all time, but Taylor was also a huge humanitarian, personally raising tens of millions of dollars for AIDS research.

In her honor, we will be making a donation today to the Elizabeth Taylor Aids Foundation, and we encourage you all wanting to pay tribute to do the same.

Our thoughts and well-wishes are with her family and friends!

Though she's no longer with us, Elizabeth Taylor will love on forever! Like Marilyn, Elvis, and - now - Liz!!!
