The Media was no worse with Michael jackson's death coverage My point stands tall. When Michael Jackson died, I watched the REAL coverage of his death.. On MTV when they played like 3 days of Michael Jackson music videos.. That's how you honor the death of a talented celebrity that brought joy to others when others had nothing else. That's like if MadTV was still on the air when Michael Jackson died they would have a Michael Jackson Parody episode

As I mentioned before, I have nearly all of Robin Williams' movies on both DVD and Blu-Ray and felt like I should gather them all up and take a pic of them all together. Of course, the major one I am missing is Aladdin but I will probably get that at some point soon seeing as I've got the majority of his other movies. I've also included a few which included bit roles with him like Too Wong Foo and Shakes the Clown. Here's my video collection of Robin Williams:

Such an amazing actor. I felt like the overall theme of his career was that even if things are rough now, everything will be fine.
It's sad to see him leave, especially like that.

Robin Williams was in the early stages of Parkinson’s Disease at the time of his death, his wife Susan Schneider said in a new statement. “Robin’s sobriety was intact and he was brave as he struggled with his own battles of depression, anxiety as well as early stages of Parkinson’s Disease, which he was not yet ready to share publicly,” said Schneider. Williams was found dead Monday morning at his Northern California home. Police said the 63 year-old actor hanged himself. “It is our hope in the wake of Robin’s tragic passing, that others will find the strength to seek the care and support they need to treat whatever battles they are facing so they may feel less afraid,” she added. “Robin spent so much of his life helping others. Whether he was entertaining millions on stage, film or television, our troops on the frontlines, or comforting a sick child — Robin wanted us to laugh and to feel less afraid. Since his passing, all of us who loved Robin have found some solace in the tremendous outpouring of affection and admiration for him from the millions of people whose lives he touched. His greatest legacy, besides his three children, is the joy and happiness he offered to others, particularly to those fighting personal battles.” variety.com/2014/film/news/robin-williams-was-in-early-stages-of-parkinsons-disease-says-wife-1201283014/

Makes you wonder, how big of a part the Parkinson's played into his clouded decision to end it all. And while the after math of his passing, we've got to see the best in humanity, with the great stories people have shared about him, it sucks to see the worst in people too, with Robin's daughter Zelda removing herself from her social media accounts, because of people basically mocking her father's death. You have to be really f-ed in the head to see a woman, that just lost her father, and your brain thinks it's fun to mock his death, and do thinks like photoshopping pictures to appear to be ones of him dead. It sucks she has deal with that, at a time when she's mourning her dad's loss, and celebrating his life.

As a robin will fan let me show you my favorite Eminem quote that uses his name- I have DVDs too, I'm just too lazy to put them in the shape of a food triangle or surround them with tea candles + worship. You know how many people die every day guys? Woah.
"Let me entertain you like Robbie Williams!" to quote da real Slim Shaday
RIP about 1.2k from the Ebola virus, btw.

What I heard is he has 3 films coming out soon or in the year 2014, which I find most fascinating... he is dead- it's a tragedy- but as someone who has seen personal friends, or those i'd have once called some of my best, i am no longer phased by by the celebs that are dropping like flies.... bless 'em and all but people die every second for worse reasons, too.
In a nutshell, without someone telling me like every miniature-horse detail about the movies or the roles he plays in 'em (I only know one is of those Night/Museum-themed series.... as a night watchman or something, I *think*), what movies is he going to be in and were they actually all done with filming & in post-production, or what?
I still haven't been able to get through that Gandolfini/Dreyfus-louis film, and I love her (and loved him) but it seems like it was pieced together and I truthfully don't know if it was finished prior to his passing or not. So without being insensitive, i'm asking if I should even concern myself with all of these "impending releases" that he (Robin Williams...) is to be in. If he cameos or never finished a role + had most scrapped, it's just reason to sell a ticket to me and no different than the post-humous crap a lot of stuff becomes.... or is. (see: all Michael Jackson since he croaked himself and so many others.)
RIP Robbie but the guy was like (at this point in his career minus the scandals that Chase has since seemed to lose- or maybe they lost track of him) Chevy Chase, or Dana Carvey or something- some forgotten comic who was huge and eclipsed in the '90s, and at a point no matter how well one's craft seems to be- whether they fall off or not, no one ever talks about people until they're dead come a certain point; it's like they've expired UNTIL then anyway (Michael Jackson's quick brush with fanatic mania after his death, followed with 2-3 yrs of zzzzz is another perfect example- great talent and sad loss or not- in either case! that isn't the point!*), or even realizes they're really out there- til they DIE. why is this?
To you Robbie: (or more so the fans who have come out of nowhere who were nowhere until you died.... rest your soul, I hope the other side is more peaceful than this one was for you. RIP the Robin, aka Mork aka the dude who once played Hook and also that Patch Adams character, and also managed to play a crossdresser in the same movie with Pierce Brosnan without wanting to break PIerce's neck. the afterlife has a place for your cross-dressing, mork/Fonzie-lovin' rubber nose butt, you funny motherhumper RIP
