Re: Henry Gibson RIP In his honor, a poem by Marxo Grouch...
*bows*
"Why must I always hold this flower?
Its stem is getting moldy
But that's okay. In a later scene,
I get to dance with Goldie."
*bows again*

Re: Henry Gibson RIP I loved his work as the latent homosexual conservative judge in 'Boston Legal.'

Re: Henry Gibson RIP He'll always be the lead creepy neighbor from The 'Burbs to me, but I totally did not know he voiced Wilbur in the animated Charlotte's Web! That movie was such a huge part of my childhood, and he did such an amazing job.
RIP, Sir. May flights of talking spiders sing thee to thy rest.

Re: Henry Gibson RIP Does this count as #3? Mary Travers. As in Peter, Paul, and Mary.

Re: Henry Gibson RIP I usually think it's hyperbole when people say that it seems like a lot of famous people are dying, more than usual.
Right now, I'm starting to think that's not the case. Gibson was a great character actor. I think my favorite line of his is still: "And they're Catho-lic" in The Blues Brothers.
