Same! Just caught this on tv a week ago!



Probably my favorite movie of all time. Been riding w/ Pee Wee since 1985. R.I.P.

Pee Wee The Loner Rebel

Very sad to hear. A most creative and unique talent. Thanks for the fun and laughs throughout the years, Mr. Reubens!

Face of the 80's and 90's that my kids were raised on.

Pee Wee had a Big Adventure.

And they are masters at this deceit; when was the last time that MSN didn't show a picture of Donald Trump that didn't depict him as a frightened tyrant, and an unsympathetic figure?

And a certain segment of the population are drawn to, and manipulated by the physical image alone; anyone who's seen Todd Browning's film Freaks (1932) should know what I'm talking about.

Mr. Rubebns' Pee Wee Herman was essentially non-ideological and harmless --- but that's not always the case.

Deciding who is "ideological" or "harmless" for the rest of us - is probably harmful to you.



Let the poor man be, he's been entertaining folks (even the smart ones) for a long, lonnnng time. RIP.
