505thAirborne Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Rest in peace dear sir. Thank you for the laughs and your performance in Good Will Hunting.
Kyp Durron Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Just saw this, holy crap, did NOT see this coming, I don't think anyone did.R.I.P.

Dobber Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Holy crap! I loved his latest show with Sarah Michelle Gellar. Damn... Chris
mickyg Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Wow. I'm lost for words. Loved the guy. Quirks and all. Especially the quirks.
Dynaman Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 So very sad. Even in bad movies (Popeye) he was an incredible talent. Then he went and did serious roles and was awesome in those too (the one where he played a killer up in Alaska - remake of a foreign film), and THEN he was humble enough and smart enough to play the straight man when it served the movie best (The Birdcage).
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 That's a damn shame. My condolensces to his family.
Flaming Guantlet Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 (edited) Wow...I felt like I just got punched in the gut. I actually feel really heartbroken over his loss. It's always sad when you hear a famous actor pass away, but effect feels even more compounded when its someone you enjoyed watching since being a wee lad, to say nothing of the circumstances surrounding the loss. I also kinda felt like we lost one of our own too, as he was every bit the geek like the rest of us are. Damn shame indeed. Rest in peace dear sir, and for all the laughs we've got to enjoy.

areaseven Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdOxzI6YNwE R.I.P. Robin Williams.
505thAirborne Posted August 12, 2014 Author Posted August 12, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBjWHfBHKos One of my favorite Robin Williams moments.
EXO Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 One of my favorite episodes on one of my favorite shows...
myk Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 WTF? I will never understand how someone with that much fame, wealth and power; who has reached out and touched or influenced audiences the world-over can suffer the symptoms of lesser men that eventually leads to suicide. In the end, I guess every man's pain is their own. I loved Robin Williams in "The World According to Garp." Godspeed, Mr. Williams...

Hikuro Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Damn shame. Loved his work when it was on TV. Use to watch mark and Mindy.
technoblue Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 So very sad. Even in bad movies (Popeye) he was an incredible talent.

Insomnia --- I loved the US adaptation of the original. Man, this news hits hard. Mr. Williams was a landmark of talent.

Seto Kaiba Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Ach... I'm gonna miss him. I wasn't a fan of his later work, but I loved the hell out of Aladdin when I was a kid, and he was fantastic in that.
CrazyDude Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I didn't enjoy his comedies that much, French/original version of Birdcage was way better. I think like many comedians he excelled in tragic or dramatic roles. RIP.
Einherjar Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 (edited) I think like many comedians he excelled in tragic or dramatic roles. RIP. Yup, like Awakenings. I think he was on a Law & Order episode and remember being really impressed at how serious he took a role. Edited August 12, 2014 by Einherjar
EXO Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Yup, like Awakenings. I think he was on a Law & Order episode and remember being really impressed at how serious he took a role. That was Homicide: Life On the Streets... check the youtube vid I linked at the top... his best performance next to Good Will Hunting IMO...
Einherjar Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I was wrong, it was Law & Order SVU. http://lawandorder.wikia.com/wiki/Authority
EXO Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I was wrong, it was Law & Order SVU. http://lawandorder.wikia.com/wiki/Authority I guess I was wrong too... lol. Never knew he was on that show too.
Moly_Sigang Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Thank You for all the laughter and godspeed Robin Williams.
UN Spacy Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 One of the last great comedians...gone. Goodbye Robin Williams.
