Blazing Saddles, Stir Crazy, Willy Wonka, so many classics...
But my favorite...Young Frankenstein....
Seen that movie a hundred times....
It's one of those movies that if I'm channel surfing, I lock it in, and watch again....

Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination...

Lyrics I live by on a daily basis. My Christmas decor has a bit of a Willy Wonka theme (Candy Land wasn't enough for me). He was such a great actor, there is no one else like him.

RIP Gene. I can't say I've seen all his films but from the stuff I have seen he was more talented than most of the current comedy actors. I mean, Seth Rogen, plays the exact same type of character in every movie he makes. It's been years since I've even seen a comedy that actually made me laugh.

Like one news caster said many people laugh at just the mention of his name.
Living on the Ritz. Who'd a thunk it.

I think your thinking of Abe Vagoda. Everyone thought he was dead way before he actually died earlier this year. There is even a web site you can go to go to that told you this Is Abe Vigoda Dead?. Up until January 26,2006 the web site said "Still Alive."
