Richard Pryor Died at 65

I'll always remember that one album that had the Exorcist ("hey girl, get that cross outyer ******") and Stir Crazy, to name only two.

RIP to a comedic legend.

I just watched Superman 3 the other day on DVD.

Pryor was a comic genius.

Rest In Peace dude

I thought he was dead already. Wasn't the last movie he made David Lynch's Lost Highway way back in 1997? What has he been doing since?

Anyways, I'll miss him, but I guess not as much as I should since I've spent my grievance of his departure some number of years ago. Bizarre.

He's been off the radar for a few years because he had MS and has been quite sick.

I loved his classic SNL skit with Belushi, Samurai Bellboy.

If you never heard any of them, you should really look up his albums from the 70's. The guy was a ground breaker.

You better believe he was.  It really saddens me to know that Pryor is dead.  My wife and I were just talking about him recently, and she was under the impression that he had died sometime back.  

The man was a comedic genius and will be seriously missed.  Just imagine what the world would be like without Blazing Saddles?

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
