I also just saw this on Yahoo. That sucks....He lived a hard life from his own hands, but MAN he could be funny. MY favorite Richard Pryor movie was The Toy with Jackie Gleason. The one him trying to get his stuff from the moving company was great, and Stir Crazy was good too. Too bad he's gone. I was wondering about how long he had left after seeing him on TV a few weeks ago; He was looking pretty bad.

I can't believe he was only 65! He looked a heck of alot older - I guess thats what MS does to ya.

I have a few of his standup comedy specials on DVD. Some funnier than others, depending on just how high he was.

my favorite movie was "See no evil hear no Evil", where he played the blind guy. Mostly because in that movie, the blue eyed chic gets naked.

He was great in the Silver Streak with Gene Wilder.

I remember my dad taking me to see Live on sunset strip in the movie theater in about 82 when I was ten years old! I don't think he saw or read the previews or knew what kind of movie it was. I imagine he got some weird looks dragging a ten year oldl into that one!

Well, dang - my name's Mark Prior, I always called him the "black sheep of the family". Funny man, he will be missed.

Lord rest his soul. Thought he was funny before he free-based himself.

"SO I went in the HOUSE.... cuz Cops don't shoot cars, cops shoot.....

He was great in the Silver Streak with Gene Wilder.

The part where they were in the train station and he was showing Gene Wilder how to be enough black to get past the cops was classic. Makes me laugh every time.
