very sad to learn of this today... Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein... two of my all time classic comedies....

 

[Goonie]

Godspeed Waco Kid. You'll be missed. One of my favorite comedic actors. :cry

 

[Bryancd]

"Stir Crazy" was also one of my all time favorites. "That's right, we bad!"

 

[The Mad Professor]

Let's all remember that he also had a beautiful singing voice...

(At least, I'm fairly certain that's him singing...)

 

[Mola Rob]

What a shame. He left us with many great memories.

 

[KrangPrime]

I don't think I've ever been this sad in my life..

I just painted his portrait for an art show and was thinking about him yesterday. damnit.

yeah, this one is a hard one.

next one will be bob barker or monty hall...

the first one for me was john candy. loved that guy. one of the few big actors that was taken seriously ;o).

Loved him in Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles. Also have a soft spot in my heart for 'The Frisco Kid'.

Gene, you will be missed.

I had no idea this would hurt in my heart as much as it does.

 

[Goonie]

My most favorite scene in Blazing Saddles...

 

[Sourdoh]

He was the Willie Wonka. Young Frankenstein still makes me laugh my ass off, and The Producers is superb. The Schtick is dead. Long live the Schtick!

 

[Apollo]

Sick to my stomach the world just got a little less funnier.

Was watching Blazing Saddles 2 weeks ago.

The Producers Young Frankenstein, which he co=wote with Mel, Willy Wonka, hell everything he did was great.

Few people can do drama, comedy and song and dance and boy Gene was a master of it ALL.

Say Hello to Gilda for me Gene goodbye and God bless!

Young frankenstein for me, a giant of film comedy. Pun intended

Always garenteed a great performance whatever he did, R.I.P.

[doppelganger]

He's with the love of his life and his best friend. Looks like im having a Gene fest this coming weekend.

This made me sadder than I thought it would. :cry

Even when ranting fervently Gene was never without a sparkle of poignant tenderness in his eyes. He projected palpable sincerity even in the midst of utter lunacy.
