He really was a part of some of the greatest comedy films of the past 40 years.

Sad that this one stalled out:

In 1982, Ramis was attached to direct the film adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning book A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole. The film was to star John Belushi and Richard Pryor, but the project was aborte

That had the potential to be a great movie.
