Jim Belushi used to talk about how he would never let down fans, even to the point of his own exhaustion. A true gentleman
As long as you can savor the humorous aspect of misery and misfortune, you can overcome anything.

And uncle buck is an absolute Gem of a film it’s my all time favourite movie
I believe it. I met Aykroyd and he quirky, insanely smart and just a Lovely man. I got hammer drunk trying to match him drink for drink. Wish for a do over on the daily. I had so many questions, instead I answered his about me! Like a cop. Had my life history by the end of lunch. I so could see John Candy being like this

Good thing stuff was underlined. I have no idea how else I could have read so many paragraphs without missing anything important.
FEEL THE RUTHENIUM, FEEL THE RHYME
Every time I read about how lovely he was and how it reminds me of how much joy he brought to my childhood makes me tear up! If you can love a stranger, then I loved him!!
he was truly a gem of human being.. a legend on and off the screen
Laws: He was a super chill dude!
Sounds like a genuinely good dude. Glad to hear that!
Never met him but he seemed like a nice guy and helping the crew proved it.
I was reading up about him this morning, after watching home alone. And now here. Gotta love reddit!
Just finished my annual watch of Home Alone tonight. Long live the polka king of the Midwest! err… mostly Sheboygan
John Candy looked like he would give the *best* hugs.
I have never been a huge fan of John Candy as a comedian. I am a HUGE fan of John Candy as a Human.
I have never heard anything negative about him. Be like John Candy
He really was a decent, good person.
Gone way too soon. If he was still alive today I tell believe he would still be one of the best of us.
Does not surprise me at all.
Only the good die young.
Would have been fun to go party with I reckon
its kind of funny this new crew member had no idea what or who he was doing so he asked some random guy and opps it was a main cast member, not a crew member
I would have loved to see a movie where his son was Chris Farley. Honestly, I would’ve been OK with Adam Sandler in it if his dad was Robin Williams.
The resemblance is uncanny

Legend. One of my favorite actors
Imagine feeling to good to help someone.
Absolute legend
I loved his characters.
I watched Uncle buck last night, amazing guy and actor.
The first time I read this it was Hugh Jackman…
Left this world too soon 😔
while shooting SCTV.. he would have also polished off a bottle of vodka I believe it was, by 9am
He swallowed a lot of aggression. Along with a lot of pizzas
