"Mostly Harmless"

Robin Williams is dead 
An actor who was in so many movies and brought smiles, laughs, and cries to so many people. He will be missed.
My favorite Robin Williams movie had to be "What Dreams May Come". It's such a beautiful movie. Of course he was the genie in Aladdin, Patch Adams, and so many more great characters.

Some of us can remember Mork & Mindy!
A very versatile actor, who was looked up to by many a child , adult and fellow actor.

I remember and loved Mork and Mindy too.
Such a sad loss - my favourite films were Jumanji and Fisher King
The loss of two comedy greats this year - Rik Mayall and now Robin Willaims 
RIP

My heart is was so sad when I found out yesterday. I was in tears... I don't tear up much.
I couldn't name just one, I loved all his work.

The BirdCage, anyone?? (one of my personal faves)
An amazing actor and a man with a truly generous heart.

The Birdcage, Dead Poets Society, Bicentennial Man, RV, Man of the Year.....so many incredible choices.

Sad. Birdcage, Good Morning Vietnam, and Hook are my faves. Never really took to the extra "wacky" characters he played, but still a loss. I'm bitter because my sister and I keep in touch by texting each other celebrity deaths first and she beat me to him. I got her on Micheal Jackson though!
Rik Myall hit me particularly hard as I was forever a young one... and his hilarious letters.
Edit: Update - I got her back with Lauren Bacall, but it wasn't as good.

Me too magenta - The Young Ones got me into alternative comedy and was bl**dy brilliant. I was lucky enough to see Rik (and Ben Elton) in a stand up show in 1985 (showing my age!) and he was hilarious.
Cried when I heard he had passed.

I have never really felt particularly sad at the passing of a celebrity but both Rik Mayall and Robin Williams have hit me hard.
It feels like I lost a bit of my childhood each time.
