Robin Williams found dead at home

[Swagger897]

If I may say, one of my most favorite stand-ups he did was over in the UK describing how the game of golf was created. I would link it buuut it's against AUP

 

[Vic Reign93]

Well there goes my happy mood.

Count me as another fan of Mrs Doubtfire and also Flubber.

@PsuPepperoni it's never fair unfortunately.

R.I.P Robin Williams, you will be missed.

Unbelievable... RIP

Absolutely out of the blue, this was impossible to read ):

 

[Michael88]

One of my favorite actors and such a likable, great person.

Gonna have to watch Insomnia tomorrow, his acting is perfect and its a very good film overall. Also One Hour Photo.

 

[Pako]

This makes me very very sad. Can't think of any other actor I would feel this way towards. Sounds like depression lead to his death which makes it even more sad. May you find peace with your demons Robin Williams, RIP.

 

[Coxis]

He was one of the good ones I think. Did some great movies for sure.

I loved his older works. I always got impression that he had some sort of inner-struggle, maybe due to his non-stop, over the top mannerisms. He seemed to be a really likable man, and truly brilliant actor & comedian. May his soul rest in peace.

Love both of those, too. In that order. I'd watch Insomnia remake, but I loaned the DVD, never saw it back.

RIP.

So many childhood memories.

 

[Pupik]

Wow, I never thought his life would end via suicide...Never...

Thanks for all the laughs over the decades, Robin. Thanks.

 

[Imari]

Wow. I'm more deeply moved by this than I would have expected.

RIP Robin. You did good.

I agree, even though he was smiling often you could see it in his eyes that he wasn't a truly happy man.

As someone who has been suffering from depressions for over a decade I know that happy over-the-top behavior is often used by those who are truly depressed, its some sort of attempt of self-therapy. Like forced smiling which makes you think of funny and happy things and instantly lifts your mood a bit.

 

[Baron Blitz Red]

From Mork and Mindy onwards Robin kept me laughing. This is not the way I would have ever thought he would leave us... truly shocking news. RIP

 

[MrUnknown]

 

[Crash]

One of my favorite comedians. RIP Robin Williams and condolences to his family and friends.

 

[Flex0r]

Wow quite a shock to hear that he is gone.
RIP Robin Williams

 

[Spacegoat]

Still in utter disbelief at this news.

Thank you Robin for all the wonderful memories. RIP.

 

[CodeRedR51]

RIP Mr Williams. A large part of my childhood memories are thanks to you, and I'll never forget what a wonderful person you were. You will be missed.

 

[FoRiZon]

RIP and all condolences to his relatives. I remember him mostly on Jumanji .

Really hope his reported suicide isn't true.

 

[LeoStrop]

I usually don't get sad when an actor dies, but that got me pretty bad. Such a good guy...

I wish i was your close friend, to hold you and make all your problems go away, before you had to do that.

Rest in peace my friend, your smile and happiness will be missed in this world.

 

[Crispy]

I don't want to believe it at all, such horrible, horrible news. Made so many people happy, laugh, smile. So sad to see him go.... R.I.P.

First of all, I'm sorry to hear that you suffer from depression. Like with Robin Williams, for me, it's hard to imagine someone who have so much going for could be unhappy. If you didn't go through it yourself, I supposed it is a difficult struggle to really comprehend. I hope you are doing OK, and that it's not too serious. We love you man! We want you to be better than well!

As for Robin Williams, while it seems likely that he lost the fight within himself to go on, I hope he realized that everyone adored him, loved & appreciated all his accomplishments. This is a tragedy.

 

[FoRiZon]

Grandpa!

 

[MoLiEG]

I didn't believe it when my sis told me about it after I returned from the gym... but then I saw the news...

Ironic that the man behind countless of laughs around the world died because of depression...

RIP, you will be missed

 

[CinnamonOD]

Wat

I have my nap, wake up and I find this...

Most of the movies he appeared were excellent

RIP

 

[Falango]

Was stunned to hear this while at work. He was one of my absolute favorites, a genuinely funny man. Unfortunately, this is the third time in the last year that I can say I've worked on one of an actor's final films. Rest peacefully Robin, but crack some jokes every now and then while you're there

 

[JDmsz]

People never RIP after they commit suicide.

 

[NT_03]

He was the man who put laughter in our childhood..

R.I.P.

 

[Solid Lifters]

Very sad news. Shows you the power of depression. I was just a kid when I first saw him on Happy Days and then got the show Mork and Mindy. Very hilarious and entertaining man. RIP Robin

 

[CinnamonOD]

People never RIP after they commit suicide.

It is just a cliché because supposedly when someone commits suicide his/her soul will not be in peace and there's no point saying RIP.

I think saying that it's a matter of choice and to respect the person who died the way we are able to, no matter the way they left us.
