Rob Reiner turned the movies up to eleven with This Is Spinal Tap, and with films like Stand by Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, only cemented an enduring legacy. He will be very dearly missed, and we wish nothing but love for his family.

Albert Pyun deserves so much better than this.
