IDCHAPPY

Just watched Aladdin with the kids last week and he was awesome in that... such a shame 🙁
 
Feels like a long lost friend has departed.

in his own words, suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
 
I don't think I have really cared about a celebrity death since Freddie Mercury but I choked up a bit when I heard about this last night.
R.I.P. Robin.
 
So sad.
Right back from mork and mindy when i was a youngun in the 70s I thought he was brilliant ever since.
Such a shame
 
Shocked when I heard this morning. Apparently been struggling with depression.

Mork and Mindy was brilliant. Seemed to be a genuinely funny guy. So many good films to choose from. Patch Adams, Jack, Good Morning Vietnam, Bicentennial Man, the list goes on.

Just shows that nobody knows whats behind the smile.

RIP
 
Genuinely gutted, but then it's often said that the clowns are the saddest ones in the circus....
 
Sad news great allround actor and genuine nice guy.....mrs Doubtfire and good morning Vietnam my two favorites ....RIP Robin....Turnpin
 
I was just getting ready to celebrate. Then the wife peed on my chips and told me it was robin and not robbie.[emoji84]


I think one of his best roles was in Terry Gilliams 'the fisher king'

Give it a watch if you havent seen it.
 
Very sad rip. I've met a few famous comics that were not funny or happy in real life
 
Im not normally affected but there are certain greats who you think "really???? nah.." when you first hear about their demise. I knew he had depression and nerve issues but thought he was beating his demons.
RIP Robin Wiliams
 
He'll be sadly missed. Great actor and man.
read one on his quotes earlier
"god gave man a brain and a *****, unfortunately only enough blood to run 1 at a time".
Thats a classic, just like him.
 
The first celebrity death where I have ever fealt a modicum of mourning. Its quite unsettling. The death of people I have not met or known personally never normaly affects me. Maybe its the suicide element that makes it all the more tragic. His characters and acting ability are memorable and will live on. I cant help thinking of the numerous times I have seen him on talk shows where he just dominates, he was so funny quick witted and manic in his humor. Tragic that such a talented man and one so succesful at bringing joy to others should have so little himself that he chose this as a way out. My thoughts are with his family and close friends.
