@...Drewlicious:
Hey, Dom DeLuise was fucking awesome. Don’t hate.
My kids knew him as Jeremy from The Secret of NIMH.
RIP Dom, we will miss you
@Sticky. I hate who I hate. I only liked him in robin hood men in tights.
@...Wicked69: He was Jeremy? Who knew.
Also, how in the hell did he live to 75?
🙁
He was in Blazing Saddles?
@...kurrgo: He was the flaming director in the scene with all the guys in tuxes singing “The French Mistake” on a flight of stairs.
He was also Tiger (the cat) from Fievel goes WEst.
Also, he played a hilarious role, Urgo in Stargate SG1 in the same named episode. One of my favourite SG1 episodes.
RIP funnyman!
He was awesome as Julius Caesar. “What’s next, faggot!?”
i always remember him as Tiger the cat in Fivel goes West
i’ll always remember him as some random dead fat gay guy that i’ll never remember…
