This reads like pneumonia died, and somewhat like he killed it.

He used to comment occasionally on reddit. I interacted with him there once. He seemed very gracious and down-to-earth.

That's cool!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Ain't that the truth!

If you got him talking about his art, you could end up in these long, deep conversations with him, and he was always just so damn nice.

I wish like hell the account I talked to him on the most didn't get nuked during the protests. I can't go back and revisit those conversations now.

The guy was just well rounded, smart, and as you said very down to earth.

It wouldn't be accurate to call him a friend, but I liked him a lot. Like, if he had figured out where I live and had knocked on my door, I would have invited him in; there's family members I don't let in my door, and I'm paranoid as hell about strangers showing up uninvited.

I hope he gets his sun god robes and thousands of women throw little pickles at him wherever he ends up.

That downvoter needs to go rewatch Real Genius immediately. It’s a moral imperative.

Oh this? It's a penis stretcher. Want to try it?

I'm contemplating the immortal words of Socrates who said, "I drank what?"

Madmartigan!

Also, one of the funniest fight scenes ever https://youtu.be/MfRi-a8hPh0

He was awesome.

Real Genius needs to be mentioned in his top credits next to the Doors and Top Gun. RIP

He will always be Doc Holliday to me.

What's the name of that movie?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I know, but what's the name. C'mon!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

RIP

I was always fond of Kilmer in The Real McCoy and Red Planet.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

he was pretty damn cool as Doc Holliday too

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

So difficult to chose which is his ultimate performance, but Doc Holliday was phenomenal. His performance stood out well beyond the extremely impressive cast, yet he mastered how to make it still remain a supporting character. We’ve truly lost one of the best, today.

β€œI’m your huckleberry” has been a part of my lexicon ever since seeing that film, a really great role

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

This is devastating. There are so many choices to make when it comes to Val I refuse to single one out. Truly rest in peace.

RIP Gay Perry.

Salton Sea has a special place in my heart

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

He should never have taken that part playing a ghost =[

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I thought he was a lot older.

RIP Iceman.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I thought he was a lot younger.

But then again he was 33 when Real McCoy was released. I first watched it in maybe 95 with my parents and I was very young then.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

I liked his movies like Batman
