[Kenny]

My brother called me right after he heard the news and was asking everyone what was their fav RW movie.

I realized that was a tuff question when I started thinking about his entire body of work.
It was huge.

I was stuck, but then it came down to two... neither big hits, but roles I think he nailed.
Garp and The Fisher King.

What is your fav?

Peace,
Cy

 

[Janine]

"O Captain! My Captain!"
Dead Poets Society, this will always be my favorite.

 

[ebiz]

Almost all movies he was in we like, my kids and I watch RV all the time, my favorite RW scene is deff the scene on the bench in Good Will Hunting. Very sad to see him go , I envisioned watching him receive lifetime achievement awards when he is in his 80's , bummed out.

 

[RaiderGirl]

The one I liked him in the best was Good Will Hunting, the one I disliked the most would have to be Flubber, I almost erased this horrible movie from my mind until someone mentioned it

 

[verbster]

Happy Feet. (#1)

 

[NameFu]

A lot of people haven't seen or even heard of What Dreams May Come. It's one of those movies I can't watch only once. One of the most underrated films IMHO, But as always I have to warn that this is just my 2 cents, since the film wasn't that successful in the box office (if my memory serves me correctly) - which doesn't always represent how good a film is anyway

 

[the_yehezkiel]

Mrs.Doubtfire (it's legend)

 

[gilescoley]

Fisher King (Robin was brilliant in this)
Good Will Hunting
Dead Poets Society

What Dreams May Come - fantastic heart-wrenching movie

 

[rhymer31]

Good Will Hunting and Mrs. Doubtfire

 

[Erin Nagata]

What truly stands out for me is the movie Good Will Hunting. Truly an astounding movie.

 

[Lynx34]

Another vote for Good Will Hunting. What a talented actor and person. May he rest in peace.

 

[tomcarl]

Hook of course.

 

[farenheit000]

There are too many to list, but what I appreciate most about his work was his standup comedy.

 

[ricksinfoshop]

Mrs. Doubtfire...such a funny movie! He was brilliant in Goodwill Hunting too!

 

[ricksinfoshop]

Can't forget about Patch Adams!

 

[baseballworld]

I would go with good morning vietnam or mrs. doubtfire

 

[buysocialbookmarking]

Dead Poets Society and Hook is my favorite.

 

[nidhish]

I Loved him in Peter Pan & Jumanji .. watching them with my family was one of the best childhood memory that i cherish.

 

[Suraj Soni]

my favorite is "Dead Poets Society"

 

[blackbird5777]

Goodwill hunting & Dead poets society is without a doubt my favorite Robin Williams movie. I laughed so hard when he did a guest appearance in "Friends", even though he had just a few dialog still he managed to make it memorable with his acting.
