I didn’t much like the movie for which he won his Oscar, but I loved him in ‘Body Heat’ and especially as part of the ensemble in ‘The Big Chill.’ A great talent.
Agreed. I loved him in his small supporting role in the brilliant ‘A History of Violence’, too. RIP.

I always tell people that of all the live shows I’ve seen, nobody has more fun on stage than Dave Grohl. TH was pretty damn close.

Man, if you ever saw Chevy Metal, Hawkins' cover band...the dude was born to be a front man. Real bummer about his passing.

He was always terrific on the Howard Stern show, and on the Comedy Central Roasts.
It’s a gut-punch to the childhood. GG wasn’t just funny, but a truly unique comic. He’ll be missed. RIP.
