One of the funniest movie moments ever was when he went into a locked room with Frankenstein.

My favorite was “Silver Streak”.

I don’t think I ever laughed at a movie that hard before.

“Are we awake?”
“I don’t know—are we...black?”
“Yes, we are.”
“Then we’re awake...but we’re very confused.”

I would post some of his best lines, but there are so many it is hard to do. He was just the kind of person who made every line funny.

Rest in peace, Mr. Wilder, and thanks for the smiles and the laughs. You were a classy guy, and will be missed. Now you are with Gilda.

The world is less funny today. Now he can unite with his co-stars and be funny in heaven.

It would be toss-up between Young Frankenstein and Blazing saddles for my favorite Gene Wilder role.

Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Silver Streak, and See No Evil, Hear No Evil {his last with Richard Pryor IIRC} was hilarious. I have all of those. He was a good actor.

Why do the headlines keep listing willy Wonka when young Frankenstein and blazing saddles are two of his best movies ?
