Trying to list his achievements in film, TV and literature would take more space that this website allows, but he'll be sorely missed.
Also news recently of a remake of Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, the one set in 1991 (released in 1972, where 1991 seemed like the far future) where Cornelius and Zira's son Caeser (Roddy McDowall) leads a popular uprising by the apes against their human oppressors.
Word is the remake is going to be set in a contemporary time and setting and if they don't botch it as badly as Burton did his 'reimagining' it could be something special.
