Ira Gaines Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 In One Hour Photo he put in one of the darkest, creepiest performances I've ever seen, and yet he was great in so many family movies. Very few people could've done that. Aye, between that and Insomnia, we seen a proper psycho version of him, although One Hour Photo was particularly nasty stuff from him.

Hedgecutter Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Very sad great actor, RIP Robin. Great choice of words / grammar for a guy that's seemingly just committed suicide after deep depression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Hour Photo wasn't a particularly great film. Put an average actor in that, or Insomnia (Which had Al Pacino as another main character) and they films wouldn't have been near as good as they were. He carried them two films with incredible performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Was never a big fan and my dad loathes him for some reason but he's fantastic in Good Will Hunting, terrific film. Terribly sad he wanted to kill himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 The Birdcage was my personal favourite of his. Underrated comedy. Jumanji has to be one of the all time best children's films too. But then I suppose he had a few of them too with Mrs. Doubtfire and Flubber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanmistermustard Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Good Will Hunting and One Hour Photo were fabulous films and i really liked Hook. Sad, shite news. Normally i dont give a shit about famous passings but this and Ric Mayall's have both sadden me a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Pretty horrible news this. Would have a bit of a struggle thinking of a movie or performance of his that I didn't enjoy. Bicentennial Man was gash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainkev Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Hook and Jumanji were two of my favourite films as a kid, I absolutely adored him. As I've grown older I've come to appreciate the more different type of work in his career. Like a couple of others in this thread I don't get particularly upset about celebrity deaths but hearing Robin Williams had died was a real blow. R.I.P. Robin.

Mjölnir Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Didn't care much for Take That but some of his solo stuff was alright. Angels is a tune. Gutted, 'Angels' is one of my favourite songs. Do keep up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgun Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 When you make as many films as Williams did over his career, then there will inevitably be some stinkers. His good stuff outweighed the bad for me so I'll happily cut him some slack. I also admire him for the sheer variety of roles he took on. The man had more range than most of the actors working in Hollywood today. Although unlike many, I found his 'improv' stuff largely unwatchable. Still, sadder than usual about a celebrity death.

Death of Margo hit me harder still feel sad though enjoyed his stand up and films Tears of a clown spring to mind happy on the outside but crying inside and lonely Had to have had his demons he gave and drugs to so had to be strong Only to hang him self sad really when all he wanted to do was entertain us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
