A shame.
I kind of agree with Burt himself that he only ever made two or three good movies but he was iconic.Comment

From Patton Oswald on Twitter, I think I heard this story a while back too.
Burt Reynolds & Clint Eastwood were fired from GUNSMOKE & RAWHIDE at the same time. Burt was told he couldn't act and Clint his neck was too skinny. In the parking lot, Burt said to Clint, "I dunno what you're gonna do, but I'm gonna take acting lessons." #RIPBurtReynoldsComment

Oh, PLUUUUUUUUUUUUU-EEEEZE! What was his true claim to fame? Getting his dick wet with that plastic blonde from WKRP or that he manged to fuck his co-star from his dismal TV while wearing a 80's Steeler's jacket? This dude was the king of every white trash 70's film who grew old on whiskey and herpes. No one in Hollywood ever wanted to hire him. Bet he voted for Reagan, too.Comment

I guess they could make a Smokey & the Bandit sequel where Burt & Jerry Reed try to smuggle shitty piss water Coors into Heaven. Because it ain't getting there otherwise.Eat Us And Smile
