Travolting

Not to be confused with the popular song from the hit broadway musical, Newsies; as well as not to be confused with the popular saying in Robin's later film, Dead Poets Society. Seize the Day is a low-budget PBS TV Movie in which Robin plays a down-on-his-luck man whose marriage is falling apart, broke, and can't seem to get a single win in life.

Club Paradise begins in Chicago Illinois where a retired firefighter played by Robin Williams takes his insurance money and opens a resort at a tropical island. Directed by Harold Ramis, this movie could've been another lampoon-esque classic but instead gets too busy with various themes and subplots muddy up the films cohesiveness. Rick Moranis and Eugene Levy are both funny in this.

This two hander starring Kurt Russell and Robin Williams follows the lives of two washed up dudes in their 30s who reminisce on their final high school football game where Robin's character "dropped the ball". Too bad everybody else involved in making this movie also dropped the ball.

In the height of the Reagan Era, Robin plays a russian who defects and lives a new life in America. The film is a fascinating introspective look on the immigrant story learning about the wonderful and strange things in this new country with his likewise immigrant friends who guides him on this new journey.

Jeff and Stuart barely "survived" watching this movie. Marketed as a two-hander between Robin and Walter Matthau, this movie nails the jokes just as well as the plot: fast and unintelligible.

Considered to be Robin Williams' first dramatic role, this Forrest Gump-like movie showcases the life of T.S. Garp, a man born out of wed lock with no father figure around being raised by a woman who becomes a feminist icon. With a name like Garp, you would think the movie would allow Robin to be funny... it does not.

Robin's spiritual first film where he channels his inner cartoon character to portray THE cartoon character. That's right... POPEYE! Robin, Shelley Duvall, and many other characters fully commit to the animated style of this Robert Altman musical.

Travolting's Season 4 subject, Bobbin for Robin, kicks off with Robin Williams first starring feature role; Pop-- Wait what? You mean to tell me Popeye wasn't Robin's first movie? You mean to tell me Robin Williams was in this low budget comedy sketch movie that was 99% college humor sex jokes called 'Can I Do It... 'Til I Need Glasses'?? Oh... okay...
