    I'm speechless and in shock. Last time I felt like this over a celebrity's death was Clarence Clemons.

    My introduction to something related to Robin Williams was Aladdin and Mrs. Doubtfire when I was young. I watched Aladdin religiously as a child and it became one of my favorite movies of all time. I also can't tell you how many times I've watched Mrs. Doubtfire, and watching him put out the fire on his breasts with the pot covers would always leave me laughing in tears.

    Robin, thank you for the many, MANY laughs you have given me and to millions of fans around the world over the years.

    I still can't believe it since i heard the news. What a big loss ! I've always loved his work, lots of souvenir when i was young : I've grown with his movies and he often left me laughing or crying.
    I'm sad to know this ...
    RIP

    I went shopping for grocerys today and saw the tabloids' headlines. I'm almost in shock. I loved Robin Williams and his great work. RIP RIP RIP

    With a bursting personality full of flare, this is why it is so shocking. I used to think about how he seemed to be such an explosive force in so many roles he assumed. He seemed bigger than life. Unrivaled talent. RIP Robin.

    If anyone's interested, this is a discussion between Marc Maron and Robin Williams done in 2010. It's about an hour long, and covers a number of topics including his substance abuse and depression.

    So terribly sad. Usually the deaths of famous people don't affect me too much, but this is heartbreaking. :(

    l feel the same way.

    Was watching the police/coroner speak earlier, and the description of how he was found, the cuts he had, so got to me. Imagining the depths of pain he must've felt...I've had "Release" in my head since seeing that.
