I loled hard at that part. Such an awesome movie and a Robin Williams was a big part of why it was so great.

GWH is probably on my top 10 list of favorite movies.

RW was so good in it.

I think I wore out the VHS take I had Popeye on when I was younger.

Such a great talent.

Met him on an elevator a few years ago. He was very cool & wore sparkly Chuck Taylors.

Anyway, this sucks and should remind us that sometimes brilliant artists become that out of a need to survive growing up. His character here was a good example of a guy that needed a shield of armor.

The in memory part of the oscars will be extra emotional this year.

This may sound dumb, but Flubber was my favorite Robin Williams movie.

Robin Williams had me with his first album "Reality... What a Concept".
