i will always cherish the supporting characters he played in mel brooks' movies, as well as his co-starring role in the end, with burt reynolds (never cared much for cannonball). rip king of brooklyn, and thanks for all the laughter.

They've hit Buddy! Come on girls!

I prefer the earlier part of that scene when he demonstrates the dance steps.

When you consider his weight, he's fortunate to have lived as long as he did. RIP.

RIP. Grew up watching the Cannonball and Mel Brooks movies.

Yeah, it's a classic part.

He did a movie funny titled "Fatso" with Anne Bancroft and Ron Carey in the late 70s that I also enjoy.

RIP, Dom.

for you, dan:

sound clip

Buddy's Singers: Throw up your hands/Stick out your tush/Hands on your hips/Give 'em a push/You'll be surprised, you're doing the French Mistake/Voila!

Buddy Bizarre: All right cut! WRONG! OK, just watch me, It's so simple, you sissie-maries! Watch me, faggots!

[music plays again]

Buddy Bizarre: Ok, do you got it? Is everybody ready?

Buddy's Dancers: [heavy lisp] Yessssssssss.

Buddy Bizarre: Sounds like steam escaping. All right, action! Oh, wait till I get out! Wait till I get out!

[music plays again, but interuppted by the fight bursting through the wall]

Buddy Bizarre: What in the hell do you think you're doing here? This is a closed set.

Taggart: Piss on you! I'm working for Mel Brooks.

[prepares to punch]

Buddy Bizarre: Not in the face!

[Taggart punches Buddy in the stomach]

Buddy Bizarre: [weakly] Thank you.

Buddy's Singers: They hurt Buddy! Let's get 'em, girls!

[BruceH]

A bit startling to hear that he was 75, but he did start appearing in movies in the 60's, so yeah...

RIP

Thanks, Rob.
