Robin Williams hangs himself at 63
Okay, I really have to give this man his own thread here. If you haven't seen the news, read about it here. I dare you not to be upset while reading it. While I usually don't care about celebrity news, funny-man Williams may have affected a lot more of us than we may realize at first. He won a whopping 55 Oscars and was nominated for 67 more. He acted in dozens of movies and contributed otherwise to the creation of dozens more.
How many of these movies have you seen?
The point is, Robin Williams was a great man who had many amazing (and even a few not-so-amazing) roles in nearly 100 films, and several generations of people will not forget him anytime soon. Last edited by Cat333Pokémon; August 12, 2014 at 02:52:32 PM. |

I honestly had no idea who the dude was until yesterday, but I think one of my friends put this to words way better than I ever could.

You didn't know about Robin Williams and his amazing daughter Zelda? Even if you didn't recognize him in his movies he and his daughter were blowing up all over the gaming community 3 years ago.

Saw this on the news not too long ago. It's pretty depressing, Mrs.Doubtfire was a personal classic I occasionally enjoy seeing. In terms of being a comedian, he's one of a kind. Rather then going for the purely obvious adult sex/racist jokes nowadays comedians so desperately try to get a laugh out of from the audience, his humor was something that could be enjoyable to both kids and adults. Worthy of being put on any comedy show.
R.I.P Robin Williams, you will be missed. Last edited by Charizard98; August 12, 2014 at 05:31:30 PM. |

I've seen many of his films, not gonna list every single one. But yeah I've seen things about his death all over, there were many trending hashtags on twitter and everything. It's so sad he's gone…
Did you know he was a wrestlers? I didn't until twitter and instagram pulled up pics of him in his singlet and headgear, makes it even sadder to me :\ |

It's said often that comedians are sometimes the most tortured of souls. His decision to take his own life is unfortunate, but at least we have dozens of movies and TV shows to fondly remember him by. He's gone, but never forgotten.

It's a sad day when anybody takes their own life, but when you're a great actor or comedian or some other person that can touch so many lives indirectly, it's a wave of sadness that sweeps across the nation. Hopefully this experience will also bring to light how bad depression and other mental illnesses are and what it can lead to without help. Rest in piece Mr. Robin Williams. You've touched my life, and your legacy will live on making people happy with what you've left us.
