I love him, he was hilarious.  To tell the truth, I was shocked because I thought he died years ago.  :-[


Rest In Peace, Dom.  You will be missed.

Oh no!!!

Star of many a good comedy film, he will be sadly missed.  :\'(

We were just watching History of the World Part I and I was saying, "He is no longer with us. She is no longer with us. He is no longer with us." etc. etc. Now there is one more to add to that list.  :\'( :\'( :\'( :\'(

How many Mel Brooks films he was in?

Holy blank! :\'(

This is sad indeed. Didn't he voice one of the characters in All Dogs Go To Heaven? Also, I believe he hosted a short-lived revival of "Candid Camera" in the early 90s.

He was a very funny man. I remember him in "Smokey and the Bandit" as well as Cannonball run films and a short lived but funny TV show in the 70's, Lotsa Luck.

RIP Dom, he was also one heck of a chef too.  Anyone remember his books on cooking?

History of the World Part 1
Blazing Saddles
Spaceballs
Silent Movie
The Twelve Chairs
Robin Hood:Men in Tights
He also did some Films w/ Gene Wilder that Brooks didn't Direct or write.
The Worlds Greatest Lover
Haunted Honeymoon
The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother


How many Mel Brooks films he was in?

Yes. I bought one of His Books for My Mom when it came out {She was a fan}
He was quite the talented Comedic Actor.I really enjoyed a lot of the Films He was in.
He had such chemistry working w/ Burt Reynolds and Gene Wilder,too.

He used to have a summer place not too far from where I live. There used to be a restaurant that one of my best friends & I used to eat at ALL THE TIME and our waitress would tell us that Dom used to come into the restaurant frequently. Unfortunately, he never came in when we were there.

Also, I knew someone who worked for ADT and Dom's alarm went off because of the temp and the guy I knew was the one who answered the call. He told me that Dom said, "You mean to tell me it went off because I'm COLD?"

how sad  :\'(  Dom Deluise was truly a funny man. I remember him and Burt Reynolds, and the interaction would always be hilarious, and Burt would slap him really hard on his face and you know it had to hurt but Dom went with it and they made it funny like the 3 Stooges

Very sad!  :\'(  :\'(  :\'(

R.I.P. Dom DeLuise!

Aww, I'm going to have a big dish of pasta in his honor.  RIP, Dom  :\'(

I guess this means no Cannonball Run III :-\\  Who will Burt Reynolds clown around with now? ???

RIP Dom...

So sad to hear of Dom's passing. He had a long & successful career and will certainly be missed... :(

He was a great actor and will be truly missed.  I LOVED him in the Cannonball Run movies

In an episode of the 90s drama 'SeaQuest DSV', he guest starred with his sons Michael, David and Peter.  It was apparently the first (and only) time him and all three of his acting sons appeared on screen together



I guess this means no Cannonball Run III :-\\  Who will Burt Reynolds clown around with now? ???

RIP Dom...


There already was a Cannonball Run III

He was a great actor and will be truly missed.  I LOVED him in the Cannonball Run movies



He WAS great in those films, which were if you really looked at them for what the were, they were pretty bad. But the gag/blooper reels at the end with Burt cracked me up! And made them worth watching! ;D
He was a great dramatic actor too, anyone remember Fatso?

He also had a great bit part in Blazing Saddles too (the dancing director at the end), which reminds me, all the stars of that film (except Gene Wilder) are officially gone now  :\'(

My Condolences to Peter and Michael for the loss of their father.  And David... I forgot about him...

There already was a Cannonball Run III


I must have missed that one.  But I can't find it at imdb either.

sad day.  Condolences also to Paul Prudhomme, it can't be easy loosing a twin

I almost forgot about the movie "The End" with Burt & Dom, where Deluise is a mental patient who becomes Burt's friend after Burt is committed to the hospital for a suicide attempt and after befriending Dom, he then asks Dom to assist Burt in committing suicide and those situations are hilarious.


Last night Lady Di said that we have a children's book wrote by Dom called "Charlie The Caterpillar" we had got it for Julie when she was 1. she found it and it's copyrighted 1990 and a beautiful dedication of the book to his 3 sons.

His portrayal of Aunt Kate in Haunted Honeymoon is one of the funniest things I have ever seen.  I am very sad to hear that he has left us.   :\'(

I must have missed that one.  But I can't find it at imdb either.


It was called Speed Zone.  The only cast member from the first two Cannonball Run films to reprise his role was Jamie Farr as the Sheik.
