Heard of it. That's sad. He has played in so many awesome movies. :(

Rest In Peace, Mr. Wilder. :(
At least he'll hopefully be together with Gilda Radner again.

Sad day but what a great & entertaining legendary man. Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Stir Crazy... so, so funny.

'Tis funny that for so many he is the actor who played Willy Wonka, whereas for me, who never watched any of the Charlie adaptations, he is the one who played the original Leo Bloom (proving that the part was actually funny before Broderick showed up) and the young Frankenstein (which is one of the funniest films ever made).

I think he's really best recognized by the Willy Wonka role.

That willy wonka scene always gave me a good laugh when he swished that cane on the railing. Despite being gone, he will be remembered in the timeless films he has been apart of.

Oh DAMN! I LOVED him. He was fantastic as the Waco Kid. And his duo with Richard Pryor were always hilarious. See No Evil, Hear No Evil is one of my favorites.
RIP. good sir. Thank you for all the laughs.
First Mr. Fuji and now Gene Wilder.
Edit- Allow me to add this in as it seems appropriate for today.

Young Frankenstein will always be my favorite film of his.
