Gene Wilder Dead at 83
Always one of my favorite comedy actors. His movies with Pryor are some of the funniest comedies of all time.

*sigh*

Another great gone.

He was older and it's to be expected, but still.

A loss to the comedy community. One of my favorites as well.

Well, crap. Here's to the best (and most condescending) Wonka.




Good day, sir.

Would be great if it ties into his character from "Everything You Wanted To Know About Sex But Were Afraid To Ask"

"The little *** shot me in the ***!"

Sigh.

I saw Mel Brooks' comments about him, and of course that got me to thinking that Mr. Brooks is really up there in years now too.

So much brilliance going away and so few stepping up to replace them. I don't know that it's even that we don't have the talented people to do so, but that the entertainment industry is so different now that becoming established in such a fashion is simply not feasible.
