MPM: Ep. 135 - We Love You, Robin.

Mrs. Doubtfire | Good Will Hunting | Death to Smoochy - Robin Williams Tribute - Hello everyone! Welcome to episode of Motion Picture Meltdown! In this episode we pay our upmost respects to one of our favorite actors and the amazing life and career that he had. Unfortunately Robin Williams passed away last week, which was an emotional ride for all of us. We thought it would be best to celebrate him by bringing Mark "The Shark" Hinton back and talking about three of our favorite movies of his. We go over Mrs. Doubtfire, Good Will Hunting, and Death To Smoochy. You will hear us talk about our favorite Robin moments, talk about his great transitions from comedy to more serious roles, and go through some very emotional listener feedback. Enjoy!
