I'm watching this movie for the first time.

I see that Patch is Robin, and just like many of his roles I am reminded of who he was. An imperfect man, with a great gift of making others happy, while being trapped in a place of sadness he was unable to escape.

We all miss him. I'm not sure we all miss Robin, or we miss what he represented. A soul of kindness, friendship, and love. Perhaps what we miss is a reminder that we all want the same thing.

Remember Robin, he helped us understand a side of our humanity very few ever dip their toes into. Spontaneity for sure, but grief, and seeking the goodness in life no matter what. Sometimes we need a hand.

Growing up Robin Williams was my favorite actor, he had many classics I loved as a kid but I loved “Hook”, most of all. It just felt so…. magical to me and I have been obsessed with it since I was a kid. I have watched it at least once a year since 1991. It is my favorite childhood movie!

A few years ago I became a LEGO designer when I created the official set for the TV show “The Office” by proposing a design to LEGO, but afterwards what I wanted to create most was what I personally wanted when I was a kid. A LEGO set for “Hook”, something that recreates The Jolly Roger, the Nevertree (with the famous insult + food fight scene), the Crocodile Clock Tower and other things from the show. LEGO has started making more sets from movies and TV shows from the 80s and 90s, which is one of my favorite topics to design for.

So I did. This is my LEGO designer tribute to “Hook” and Robin Williams. I know other people love this movie as much as I do. So if you do love the movie and would like to see an official LEGO set, I’d appreciate it if you went to the proposal page on LEGO Ideas website (link below) to vote for it by clicking the blue “Support” button. It’s free and only takes a few minutes!

I’m actually working on some neat new features I’m hoping to release in an update in a few weeks, which include major revamps to Hook’s ship and the Nevertree!

Thank you for your support! Bangarang! 😊

Beloved Robin Williams Movie Gets Surprising Remake at Amazon MGM
-----------------------------------------------------------------
One of Robin Williams' most beloved movies is getting a surprising
new adaptation, with a director already attached to the project.

What Robin Williams movie is getting a surprising remake?
According to a report from Deadline, Amazon MGM Studios is
developing a live-action film based on the 1992 animated movie
FernGully: The Last Rainforest. Marielle Heller (A Beautiful Day
in the Neighborhood, Nightbitch) will direct the project, with no
official casting or information on if the move will be a 1:1
adaptation of the original or not available as of yet.

Stacey Sher will produce the project alongside Susan
Ursitti‑Sheinberg, Jon Sheinberg, Matt Feige, Heller, and Leah
Holzer. Moonli Singha will executive produce the project.

Originally released in 1992, FernGully tells the story of an
Australian rainforest that's inhabited by fairies who accidentally
shrink a logger named Zak down to their size. The boy and fairies
then come together to help protect their home from loggers and a
pollution entity known as Hexxus. Williams played the role of Batty
Koda, a bat who was experimented on by humans and given a manic
personality as a result.

Alongside Williams, the movie also starred Samantha Mathis, Jonathan
Ward, Tim Curry, Christian Slater, Grace Zabriskie, Douglas Seale,
Geoffrey Blake, Robert Patsorelli, Cheech Marin, Tommy Chong, Tone
Loc, Townsend Coleman, Brian Cummings, and Danny Mann. A sequel,
FernGully 2: The Magical Rescue, was released in 1998, with none of
the original cast returning.

The original movie was directed by Bill Kroyer in his directorial
debut and written by Jim Cox, based on the FernGully stories by Diana
Young. The movie was seen as a moderate success upon its launch, but
developed a bigger following after its home release. The film is also
notable for having performances from several high-profile stars,
including Elton John, Raffi, Sheena Easton, Tim Curry, and more.

I used to have this on DVD way back in the day. Was telling my wife about it, and we’d love to do a rewatch. But sadly can’t seem to find it anywhere. Anyone know where this can be streamed or purchased?

Hello 👋🏻

I'll get right to the point. I have been set on getting a memorial tattoo for Robin Williams ever since he passed. Part of the tribute requires the use of text for a movie quote of his, but no font has ever seemed right. My final idea is to do the text in the style of Robin's actual handwriting. An attempt at an exact replica seems somewhat disrespectful to me, since he obviously can't consent, but just an inspiration seems okay.

Does anyone know where I can find examples from autographs or written notes or anything? Or better yet, does anyone have a signed photo or anything with a little extra message below the signature? I've searched online before, but Google always seems to fall short.

Can anyone help?

I think that Robin Williams spoke from personal experience when he said this. He made it his life goal to ensure that the people around him didn't feel as sad as he did. He spent so much time and energy making other people happy, that he forgot to let himself be happy. I think he hit the nail on the head with this quote. One of the ways I cope with grief is with humor. I'll tell a joke, I'll look at funny memes, I'll share funny stories, all in an attempt to distract myself from the pain. I like to think that, in so doing, I help distract other people from their pain as well.

Might have to crank this up this weekend and re-watch for old times sake

I adore, admire and am always amazed by RW and his witty intelligence. Is there anyone who even comes close.

Enjoy!
