Robin Williams Marathon Part lll: The Final Act

Tonight's marathon marks the third and final marathon in the Robin Williams tribute. It's time to bring in the nostalgia factor of his career with his childhood classics while also saying goodbye to a legend. Whereas the first night was an emotional journey with Mrs Doubtfire, What Dreams May Come, Dead Poets Society and Bicentennial Man, and night two was more about his quality of work with Good Morning Vietnam, Awakenings, Good Will Hunting, and One Hour Photo, tonight is the epic conclusion to a week of heartfelt tribute to one of the greatest movie actors of all time. We have on our menu for this evening:

Aladdin 1992, Ferngully: The Last Rainforest 1992, Aladdin: The King of Thieves 1996, Flubber 1997, and Jumanji 1995

We've seen Robin Williams talents in the genres of comedy and drama, but haven't explored his career that focused on the nostalgia aspect of his career focusing on family films.  It is within these films where Robin's heart truly lied and what helped make him an iconic figure for millions of children worldwide. Growing up, Aladdin was larger than life along with Beauty and the Beast and Lion King. Ferngully is the movie that inspired Avatar to plagiarize large portions of it's story arc. Flubber and Jumanji just showcase his playful side and sense of imagination and wonder.

All three of these marathons just confirm that we lost an actor who was totally fearless and carried a feeling of sincerity with his work. He can play any role he wanted to or dared, and followed his heart when picking movie parts knowing it would be fun to do but would also inspire millions of people. This is the final salute for the unforgettable performer named Robin Williams. It has been a great ride.
