Jaxxoon R Posted August 12, 2014 I hardly even remember any of his films it's been so long since I've seen one, except maybe Jamunji. It's a shame he's gone, seems so many legitimately talented people are on the way out. Pretty bad in a world that idolizes people who are only famous because they're 'famous'. 0 Share this post Link to post
reality 2.0 Posted August 12, 2014 @Jaxxoon R have you seen Disney's Aladdin or third one, King of Thieves? Robin williams was the genie in both movies and did a great job. I love the first one a lot. Third one was ok. I don't see how that one can be forgotten, it's one of his most well known roles. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jaxxoon R Posted August 12, 2014 Didn't know he was the genie, or that they made sequels to Aladdin. 0 Share this post Link to post

purist Posted August 12, 2014 I really liked One Hour Photo. In all honesty I was not the biggest fan of his comedy films but his performance in what was a starkly different role to what I would imagine him in was stunning. 0 Share this post Link to post

Quasar Posted August 13, 2014 I don't think I'd ever be able to watch that final scene in Mrs. Doubtfire again - the one where he gets all sentimental and gives a speech that seems like it's really coming from him - his real heart - and not part of the movie. That part was already hard to watch as it was. Now, I don't think I could handle it. I've only ever actually cried because of a celebrity death twice and this is the second one. Just too sad. 0 Share this post Link to post

Yeah I saw that too. I had heard of Depression Quest being done, but not on Steam. Now with depression in the news its on Steam as of yesterdays. Its good and horrible at the same time. 0 Share this post Link to post

Anna Nicole Smith died amongst several celebrity deaths. I was out once and I heard some girls talking to themselves wishing one of them would go 'Anna Nicole herself.' I think Kevin Ward had a death wish running after Tony Stewart's care. I'm watching Robin Williams movies now. I'm watching Pop-Eye for the first time. I feel like its made for 4 year olds, but wow they were true to the source material even in terms of costumes. Its all just one big man made set that could probably be a play. 0 Share this post Link to post
