I didn’t think he was that old. Then I remembered how old I am...

First date with Mrs. Buckeye was to see him with Richard Pryor in See No Evil, Hear No Evil. A truly, truly awful film!

But he shall always be remembered as the original Willie Wonka and as Dr. Frank-uhn-steen. RIP.

He was great in “Lady in Red” 1984.

Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein are two of the funniest movies of all time.

RIP to a comedic genius.

Such a great wit was he. He will be missed.

Marty Feldman, Madeline Kahn, Peter Boyle and now Gene Wilder.

So weird. I was just watching clips of "Willy Wonka" on YouTube yesterday. Hadn't seen that move since I was a child and better appreciated his fine acting when I became an adult.

In all the movies I've seen him in, he was pretty brilliant.

Wow! RIP Gene Wilder. I look for an AMC tribute.

So many movies. I might watch Silver Streak tonite.
