Showing my age here but without Richard Donner some of my favourite films throughout the years would not have come to pass. Lethal weapon , Goonies or the first Superman film. All helmed by Richard Donner . What a filmmaker. My respect and condolences.

Sad news but good innings.
Scrooged is my favourite Christmas Carol telling, the Goonies and Lethal Weapon both class.
Thanks for the heads-up. I must admit, I didn't know the name, despite being a fan of so many of these movies from the 80s, and indeed his TV shows from the 60s (e.g. Man from UNCLE, Twilight Zone). RIP
RIP Mr Donner. A very talented man with an incredible CV and someone who made a genuine challenge to The Exorcist with The Omen as one of the scariest film of all time.

The Omen is a very daft film but I love it.
The Dick Donner “cut” of Superman II is worth seeking out.
I had no idea he had directed 'The Omen' (1976 original). Such a great horror film. Bit dated now, but still spine-tingling in parts.
He lived a long life though. RIP.
I never realised he was that old; well into his 50s making The Goonies and Lethal Weapon.
RIP.
