I've been a Robin Williams fan for many years and I'm glad he was able to move "on and upwards" from TV to the Big Screen. His stage stand up comic routines are simply brilliant. Unlike a lot of comic actors, he actually is a funny man. I don't know of any one better than him with ad-libbing. I saw some one interview him once and I think they only asked him one question and he was off! The journalist ended up in tears from laughing so much. I have seen all of his movies and admire his straight acting performances just as much as his comic ones. I particularly liked his performance in Good Will Hunting. The only other comedian/actor I've given a 10 to is Billy Connolly. Oh how I'd love to be a fly on the wall when those two get together!
Robin Williams was born Robin McLaurim Williams on July 21, 1951 in Chicago, Illinois. He grew up watching Monty Python and Doctor Who. When he was 16, he moved to San Francisco, California. He became known for his role of Mork on Happy Days and on Mork & Mindy. On June 4, 1978, he married actress Valerie Valardi, they have a son Zachary born in 1983, they divorced in 1988. He admits he is a Star Trek geek and used to love to watch it. On April 30, 1989, he married producer Marsha Grace Williams. They have two children: daughter Zelda(born 1989) and a son Cody(born 1991). I think Robin Williams is a very talented actor and I hope to see more great movies from him. Robin has an older brother Todd.
I will say this about mr Robin Williams. He always makes me laugh even when he's making no sense at all. I end up in pain b/c I am laughing so hard. I always expect that when he goes onto a talk show that the host will be able to say about 2 words and he'll control the convo. I have seen so many of his movies, tv shows(mork and mindy), and most of the time he's been on David Letterman, Jay Leno, Ellen, etc. I'd say my favorite movie of his is Hook. That was a semi serious movie, where he did get funny, but not excessively. I also loved him in Mrs Doubtfire. I loved the courage he had to do anything to be near his children. Even dressing as a nanny. Thumbs up to robin.
Robin Williams movies are excellent! He's not my favorite actor, but he is still really talented. I first heard him when I was little and watching the Aladdin movies. He voiced the Genie. I wasn't old enough yet to understand actors, but the Genie was one of my favorite characters. Some more good movies that he starred in are: Mrs. Doubtfire, Jumanji, Flubber, RV, and Night at the Museum. He starred in several other movies, but I haven't seen some of them and most I can't remember. Night at the Museum was probably his best movie. It was so funny!
This man is so funny I could laugh all night. I think he did a great job in Jack, and Patch Adams. He does a really good in acting like other people. He also did a great job in Happy Feet and Night At The Museum. I loved the penguiens that he played. He did great as playing Teddy Roesevelt. I also saw him in Man of the Year. It was funny.
