Inspired by the movie out-takes thread.

I say so obviously classic it doesn't need to be argued. S: Cannonball Run, Smokey & The Bandit 2.

Dom Deluise is classic of course. I did once see a rubbish film with him playing a clown or something, but I enjoyed watching him in that too. So search just about everything if you just enjoy the man's presence. His voice acting in animations is always cool too.

Well, he's in Blazing Saddles a bit - don't know how much that counts. I like Haunted Honeymoon and History of the World Part I, but I know lots of people don't. The Muppet Movie is classic, of course, and he's in the excellent Marty Felman film the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother.

I'd be tempted to destroy Spaceballs, because it's rubbish, but it's worth preserving just for the cast really.

this thread is short enough, so: RIP, big guy

I admit, though, mine was an ITHWAD reaction.
(Yet he was only 75.)
