Sad to see. Very underated actor and director. Animal House, Stripes, Back to School, Ghostbusters, and the list goes on and on. Directed one of the funniest movies of all time: Caddyshack.

You will be missed.  :'(

Just read this. Damn. Sad to see. He had a hand in so many funny movies, but yes, Caddyshack might be the funniest. A comedic visionary. All the good ones are going.

Immense comic talent.  Wrote so many quotable lines it's hard to even know where to start naming them.  Stripes, Animal House, Caddyshack, Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day, Back to School.  One classic after another.  A personal quote from IMDB:  "Comedy is inherently subversive. We represent the underdog, as comedy usually speaks for the lower classes. We attack the winners."  R.I.P.

Groundhog Day is a fine example of how comedy could be great. Even Andie MacDowell manged to be good in it.

Rest In Peace, Harold Ramis. You will be missed.
