I mean 83 is pretty old and all but I'm heavily considering burning 2016 to the ground now.

That and [tornado fang]ing Alzheimers, I know he was extremely lucky in that it didn't [tornado fang] with him as the majority of other cases but that's still worse than Cancer to me........

This makes me sad. I greatly enjoyed his work.

If I still played Left 4 Dead 2, I would sing the "Pure Imagination" song once more as I dragged someone into a corner, just like the good ol days.

Wait you do that while killing someone.......?

Mmyeah, it was kind of a running joke at the time. Ahh, those were fun times.

That aside, I think I'll pop on Young Frankenstein tonight.

[Sakura Leic]

Sounds utterly disturbing but okay.

I really need to finish Young Frankenstein myself.

[Fxeni]

I was only taking them to a world of pure imagination

[Sakura Leic]

Well at least it's not a drug related death.....right?

[Protoman Blues]

Sigh. Loved his work! This year, man...

[tornado fang]ing. OUCH. This hit me hard.

He was a fantastic actor.

Fun fact:

The outburst in the ending scene was completely improvised by Gene on the spot.

Another fun fact.

Gene Wilder refused to play Willy Wonka, unless his character pretended to be cripple and then quickly recovered during his introduction, showing the audience that his character can be deceptive.

This deception was only known by the director, but not to his fellow actors, so the reactions you see are genuine.
