this man has to be one of the funniest actors i have ever seen. he pulls it off so well, his sarcasm is brilliant.

he is the main reason i love watching charlie and the chocolate factory.

how about we post some of his classic movie lines?


Well, my name is Jim, but most people call me... Jim.


You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons.


The suspense is terrible... I hope it lasts

I don't understand this. The children are dissappearing like rabbits. Well, at least we still have each other. Let's move along.

If there was ever an actor that i would want to hang out with, gene wilder would be that actor.

Young Frankenstein is brilliant.



[to Inga from behind the bookcase] Put... the candle... back!

I love Gene Wilder. Johnny Depp didn't come any where near his portrayal of Willy Wonka. No way. Everything I've seen him in, I've loved.

See no Evil Hear No Evil



Dave: Who are you talking to?
Wally: I'm talking to you, you prick.
Dave: Why don't you look me in the eye and say that?
Wally: I would if I could but I can't, I'm blind.
Dave: You're blind?
Wally: Yes I'm blind, what are you fucking deaf?
Dave: Yes, I'm fucking deaf!
Wally: You're really deaf?
Dave: I'm really deaf.
Wally: Then how do you know what I'm saying?
Dave: Because I'm reading your lips now you want the job or not?



Absolute classic

This man aged faster then potato salad, but yeah, hell of an actor.

So did focker.
