    I was so shocked when I found this out. I feel like I can't watch any movies with him in for a while. my husband has never seen Jumanji and I have been bugging him to watch it since I found it in a thrift store. now I don't know when I even want to. I forgot about One Hour Photo. that one was super weird and gross. I haven't seen all his movies, either, but my favorite ones are all the ones I grew up watching- Hook, Jumanji, Mrs. Doubtfire... so sad...

    Surprised I haven't seen the movie "Jack". One of my favourite movies of all time. Mrs Doubtfire will always be the top of my list with Aladdin though.

    You're free Genie.

    I wasn't a big fan of Jumanji but he was good in that movie. I loved Mrs. Doubtfire, Flubber was a great classic too! but I can't list them all so he was an amazing comedian and actor in everything he did and he will be sorely missed :/

    Dead Poets Society & Good Morning Vietnam.

    Can't forget he was also in the original music video to Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry, Be Happy!".

    Jumanji and Hook. Very very sad news. He will be missed. Thank you Mr. Williams for the pleasure you brought to so many people.

    I liked some his less crazy roles most of all like “The World According to Garp” and “Awakenings”.

    this is where I differ from average people:

    I thought is most popular (patch adams, mrs doubtfire) sucked...

    On the other hand, One hour photo, death to smoochy, the butler, what dreams may come,Fisher King, and dead poets society were movies that made us think and came from a more artistic point of view as opposed to yet another boring Hollywood spoonfed blockbuster. I have a feeling he would agree.....RIP

    My Take :-

    Shows the value of a person when his body of work touches so many people that they all want to say 'Thank you'.... by such things we are measured.

    Jumanji and Good Morning Vietnam. Although it was not a movie, Mork and Mindy is still his best!

    It's honestly so hard to pick a favorite. Robin Williams has been a part of my life the whole time starting with Mork and Mindy! I even had a pair of the rainbow suspenders at one point. He was truly genius in anything he did. I don't know that there is a movie he did that I didn't love. Aladdin would NOT have been what it was without him...without a doubt! I think one of the cutest movies...that ended up ripping my heart out was Jack! I loved that movie. His work will live on forever. He touched so many lives over so many generations! RIP Robin! :brokenheart:
