Inviting you to three dates in the company of Robin Williams…
Another joint blogathon, this time with the lovely Crystal of In The Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood.
Top 10 Robin Williams Performances, WatchMojo.com
Just recently I was asked by the lovely Crystal of In The Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood to join her in hosting a blogathon about the actor and comedian Robin Williams. Robin Williams, the star in the wonderful films Awakenings (1990), The Fisher King (1991), Dead Poets Society (1989) and of course his TV appearances such as in Mork & Mindy (1978-82).
I jumped at the chance to honour him in his movie and television career. And (of course) for the chance to work alongside lovely Crystal. I am now formally inviting you to join us in the Robin Williams Blogathon on 29 – 31st January 2018.
In the blogathon, we’d love reviews of his acting career as a film and TV actor in any of his roles large or small. Along with anything about any aspect of his life such as Robin Williams as a person, his career, his stand-up shows or his voiceover work.
However, out of respect for Robin and his family, we are not accepting reviews about his passing. We are accepting no more than 3 duplicates relating to all entries. So here are our choices and as posts come in I’ll be adding a Who’s Doing What page.. with a link here.
Here are the rules…
- Review any movies in which Robin Williams appeared OR
- Review any TV Series or a specific episode from his TV Career OR;
- His work as a voice actor is also included OR
- Any aspect of his life or career, but information on his death must not be written about in any way.
- The link to the review/post must be sent to me at Realweegiemidget Reviews or Crystal at In The Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood. Please send these to us on any day and we both will publish the entries as we get them
- We will allow no more than 3 duplicates and 3 entries per person.
- Add one of the banners to your site and add this to your post.
- Please include your Twitter handle and Facebook page if you have one, and the name of your site with your review choice. Just so I can promote your post here, there and everywhere!
- We allow guest posts – if you want to add a post and don’t have a blog we’ll publish it on one of our sites. My guest posts will be added HERE.
- All posts will be published on the Blogathon dates between the 29th and 31st of January and a recap will be added after this.
- Have fun and be creative!
To get things rolling here are our choices:
Crystal from In The Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood… Dead Poets Society (1989) & TBA.
Gill from Realweegiemidget Reviews… Awakenings (1990)

Not much advance notice here. I’m inclined to go with something outre like One Hour Photo, but I don’t have it and neither does my library. I think I’ll pick Mork’s two appearances on Happy Days.

Hi, Gill! This is such a great idea. I was thinking “The Final Cut,” “Good Morning, Vietnam,” and Robin as Teddy Roosevelt in the “Museum” movies. I may have to back out on one or more of these, though–I’m going to get two of them out of the library, and you know how library DVDs can be. 😛
