But I will say that it seems weird to me that so many on my Facebook page hold up movies like Aladdin, Jumanji, or Mrs Doubtfire as the movies they remember him most for.
It would be like if Eddie Murphy died and people remembered him for Dr Doolittle instead of Raw (although BHC and Coming to America will always have their place in my rotation), or if Martin Lawrence died and people remembered him for Big Momma's House.
That's America for you.
That...
or maybe people have differences of opinion and like different things for different reasons.
Just glad they like anything from him, goes to show that his vast work found a way to touch all types and that's a testament to how good he was!
No..I mean that's true, it's just wierd to me. It'd be like if someone remebered Ray Allen only for his time in Miami or something. Like, 'Yah, that's special for you, but bro...you should've seen him on the Bucks.'
For me, I think there was an honestly, a bearing of Williams' true frantic, but troubled soul in his early standup showcases. And I loved Williams in some of his movies, and if you want to get nostalgic, Hook will always have a place in my heart, so will Toys, but when I saw his early standup, it was just..true. And I didn't see it until long after highschool, decades after it was taped.
And I'm sure out there is someone who thinks I'm an uneducated butthole because I never saw Mork and Mindy.
