The Robin Williams Memorial Thread
Following the shocking death of one of america's best comedic actors, I decided a thread should be made to celebrate and discuss Robin's many films
He was one of the few male comedic stars who actually made me laugh. He also went on to do some fantastic dramatic work as well.

He was such a diverse actor and could turn his hand to anything. Not to mention Mrs Doubtfire which he's probably most famous for.
Am a bit shocked to see some people citing Coppola`s "Jack" as his best movie. In decades of movie-going it`s one of the worst I`ve seen.
Odd to hear David Hasselhoff of all people on R4 this morning talking about Williams. Random.
It's all subjective. As a kid, Jack was my favourite movie, and for that reason, it always will be. I adored it growing up, and still do.
My favourite RW movies are 'Death To Smoochy', 'Good Will Hunting' & 'World's Greatest Dad' so I'll no doubt be revisiting those in the next few days.
RIP Robin:(...
Rest in peace Robin Williams. I have no idea what you were going through but I hope you've found peace wherever you are.
O Captain, my Captain
I really liked One Hour Photo, very creepy, Dead Poets and Good Morning Vietnam are classics.
His Popeye was well done too, even if the film itself wasn't great.
One of his lesser known films, The Birdcage, is fantastically funny, I recommend it to anyone.
Wonder what will happen with Mrs Doubtfire 2? I hope Hollywood drops the idea as it wouldn't be the same with anyone else.
Unlike most people, I never liked Mrs Doubtfire.
I thought One Hour Photo was one of his best.
I've heard great things about that but I've never seen it.
Find it.
Watch it.
NOW !!
So many different roles and different types of films.
I doubt anyone can say they did not enjoy at least one of his performances.
Although his acting quite rightly has been talked about I think his stand up work was also fantastic (broke many records).
Was someone I always wanted to see live but sadly never got the chance
Totally agree.
What a sad loss. I feel for his family at this time.
One Hour Photo is absolutely superb. You cannot help but feel really sorry for Sy Parrish, the 'photo guy'. Brilliant, brilliant acting on the part of RW.
Absolutely. A lot of my childhood were those films plus more including Mork and Mindy. I loved Robin Williams then and i still do now. A wonderful man.
A total legend.
A comedy genius
An improv God.
Such a damn shame.
You will be missed.
Rest In Peace.
