So sad to hear of his passing. He was such a great comedian and actor. I enjoyed his brilliance since Young Frankenstein. He'll be missed. :rose:
 
That's to bad, he was a talented actor. I knew he'd retired from acting but I hadn't known he was suffering from Alzheimer's decease.
 
I have Willy Wonka out to watch tonight.

Good day, Sir and thank you for the memories...
 
I loved him in blazing saddles and Willy Wonka... But his performance in Young Frankenstein will forever be my favorite. An amazing actor / writer and will forever be missed.
 
I'm trying to think of a movie he was in that I didn't like! I can't because I liked everything I ever saw him in. Condolences to his family and friends.
 
An often overlooked GW movie was Silver Streak with Richard Pryor. 88% on RT. I'm old enough to actually have watched it in the theatre! :rolleyes:
 
One of my faves was Hear no evil, see no evil with the late, great Richard Pryor. Totally hilarious concept of one being deaf and the other blind. :D
 
No one could have played Wonka better than Gene. I have seen quite a few of his other comedies, but Wonka I have seen many times. I will never watch the remake, as much as I love Depp, because Gene brought more to his character than eccentricities. He was a genius, a madman, a little cold, a little cruel, a little uncaring, a little unlikeable, but in the end I forgave him all his faults. It takes a great actor to pull you on an emotional ride where you are never sure where you will end up.

It was his turn to win the golden ticket and I hope he enjoys the ride.
 
Golden Ticket indeed. I had heard him say many times that he was really counting on an afterlife because he didn't get to spend enough time with Gilda In this one. I hope for his sake they're together tonight. :rose:

I think he would raise his cane, tip his hat and give a wry smile reading that :)

Gene gave us so much. I am grateful for his life and his talent. He made the world a little better.

As soon as you mentioned Gilda, I had to laugh about Roseanne Roseannadanna. that and Baba Wawa and how she was so candidly animated. :D
 
Damn!! Again... I wish they had waited to do a remake of Willie Wonka. THAT was a slap in the face!

He's with Gilda now. SO, he's happy.

And Marty Feldman (God!! look at when he died and how old! '82 at 48 years..... and Peter Boyle...... )

Bonnie and Clyde!!
The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother

Humph... I thought he was in "Silent Movie"... oops.
 
What a wonderful, funny, thoughtful man he was. No doubt now in heaven making the Angels smile.
 
He is Dancing with Gilda in heaven. And laughing with Madelinne and Peter.

Fare thee well Gene.
