It's depressing how such a great actor with a wonderful career is known to a certain part of the Internet as the narrator of the Care Bears movie.
May he rest in peace.

I wonder if he's meeting Bruce Lee up there, and what they'd say to each other. Just asking because of Dragon The Bruce Lee Story.

From Wikipedia. Sounds less like: "sorry it was racist" and more like "sorry you were offended". 
In a 2008 interview about the film, 87-year-old Rooney said he was heartbroken about the criticism: "Blake Edwards... wanted me to do it because he was a comedy director. They hired me to do this overboard, and we had fun doing it.... Never in all the more than 40 years after we made it – not one complaint. Every place I've gone in the world people say, 'God, you were so funny.' Asians and Chinese come up to me and say, 'Mickey you were out of this world.'" Rooney also said that if he'd known people would be so offended, "I wouldn't have done it. Those that didn't like it, I forgive them and God bless America, God bless the universe, God bless Japanese, Chinese, Indians, all of them and let's have peace."

I'm probably one of the only people who will always remember him as Flip from Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland, even after seeing a couple of his old movies.
