He directed Caddy Shack, National Lampoon's Vacation, Groundhog Day, Analyze This and Bedazzled. Some of the best comedies of all time. Add on to his writing credits Stripes, Ghostbusters, Armed and Dangerous and Groundhog day and you have a legend.

Oh my God. This is horrible news. He was a part of some of the funniest movies ever made. Caddyshack Animal House Vacation Stripes Ghostbusters Comedy classics to which all other comedies are judged by. RIP.
That really sucks. I guess that answers the question of "will there be another 'Ghostbusters' movie?" because I think he was driving a lot of that for a while but they could not get Bill Murray to reprise his role. I bet they eventually reboot "Ghostbusters", though, like everything else. Who can forget him in that role and in "Stripes"? Also, "Groundhog Day", "Animal House", "Caddy Shack", and "Vacation" were huge. Shocked and saddened. RIP
Always seemed like a nice, smart guy, very funny, a good writer and director. We lost another good one. Sucks. RIP Egon.. have a Twinkie.. You earned it.

I liked him as an old stoner dad in Knocked Up, he brought an old school wise sensibility to the comedy. yeah great link, DFW
He had a great bit part in Orange County too. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/8hJlwQwwCGk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
