    Hook and August Rush. But I really like all of his movies. I don't think I've seen one that I didn't like. Although One Hour Photo and Death To Smoochy were probably my least favorites...LOL.

    There really are so many!!

    I was a big fan of Hook for sure!! (LOVE!)
    Jumanji, Mrs. Doubtfire ... what else?
    Oh, Good Will Hunting and Gooooooooood Morning VIETNAM!!! haha

    His movies were always those "feel good" types -- the news of his passing is just all around saddening.

    I loved everything this man did. Rarely does a celebrity death bother me, but his is bringing me to tears!! This three best (in my opinion)...

    - Dead Poets Society
    - Good Morning Vietnam
    - Patch Adams

    His movies were always those "feel good" types

    And yet his real life was filled with so much pain and struggles with depression and addiction...

    I loved him best in "Happy Feet" I think as "Ramon".

    That penguin is my freakin' idol....

    Happy Days!

    I still remember the original episode where 'Mork' was introduced and wanted to take Richie away for a 'Bleem' (2000 years).
    . . And that Fonzie escaped his freeze-ray by wiggling his thumb. . .

    I loved his stand up work, as well as The Birdcage.

    I guess someone who could make others laugh so easily cried a lot in private. I hope he's found peace.

    The one that made the biggest impact in my life was Aladdin, childhood memories that will always make me smile... nobody else could make that character, Robin made Genie.

    RIP Robin, thank you for all of the wonderful movies/characters that you created and the world has definitely had a great loss with losing you.
