Yes, as a big Disney fan, I've seen clips with him recording the voice of the Genie . . . it was great to watch him creating the Genie . . . and when I watch Aladdin I can picture him doing the voice. ![]()

Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Pagliacci. -Allan Moore
Life can be tough and we're all in it together. Try and be kind and bring smilies.
Rest in Peace Robin.
Oh, Irshgrl. That's too profound for words.

Some of his movies were my favorites. I loved him in "Good Morning Vietnam", "Awakenings",
"Mrs. Doubtfire", "The Fisher King", and "The Birdcage".
Oh my, The Birdcage! One of my favorites..how could I have forgotten that one.
So many roles.
I heard on the news this evening that four movies are set to come out with him this year.

From reports sounds like a hanging. I never saw anything of his except for a few Mork & Mindy episodes, but everyone says he was a very kind person. R.I.P.

He was the Genie in Aladdin! Genie, I want one wish: Let Robin Williams know he was loved and will be missed!I'm really sad. He was one of my favorite actors and comedians. Really the only one that made me laugh all the time! I loved seeing him on talk shows and starting one of his riffs.
He was great on the Actor's Studio. That was several years ago. I remember there was an audience member, a woman, who had the loudest laugh. Her laugh stood out from everyone else's. You could tell Robin was getting into it, and it only encouraged him more. It was great!
I loved Mrs. Doubtfire. Also, Good Morning Vietnam, Jumanji, and so many others. More recently, RV. He was really good in that, too.
Very sad for his family and his kids.
Wow, I didn't know that. But, I can understand it happening. Whenever I saw him doing comedy, I usually laughed so hard that my face and stomach hurt!

Yes, we have the DVD, and it's one of the few movies that I watch every so often. I never get tired of it. Those two together were great!

At this moment, some people are gathering at the SF house in which Mrs. Doubtfire was filmed.
His death today occurred at his home just outside of Tiburon, Marin County, CA.

Robin had heart surgery at the Cleveland Clinic when I worked there. Let me just say a very kind and generous man.
Geniuses have a hard time in this world. They are finely attuned to everything going around them. Robin, I believe was mostly playing himself in his movies, always on and like a fast current of electricity. I doubt that his mind was ever quiet and still, always racing ahead.
May he now enjoy peace with his very good friend, Christopher Reeve, as they both enjoy eternity in peaceful, healthy bodies and minds.
I miss him terribly. Watching him was like visiting with an old friend.
BTW, someone mentioned "E" was not talking about it, but they were in my area from 7-8:30 and as I was channel surfing I stopped and heard the news.
