DeLuise was best known as a comic actor in the 1970's and 80's, starring in movies like The Cannonball Run and Smokey and The Bandit II. | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

| | Posted: | | | | He also played in a few Mel Brooks films including History of the World and Blazing Saddles. He was also a dear and devoted friend to Burt Renyolds for years. Our thoughts should be with his as well.

| | Posted: | | | | The AP has also mentioned his passing. He wasn't only a funny comedian/actor, but from what I understand a great chef as well. He will be missed, but thankfully we have his DVDs. R.I.P Dom. | | | We're on a mission from God.

| | Posted: | | | | I first experienced Dom's work in either Blazing Saddles or The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, at a very young age. His comedic timing was unsurpassed, as was his physical comedy, IMHO.
I'm planning a Dom marathon right now, beginning with Blazing Saddles.
