RIP Celebrity Thread - Part 2

[Drizzle]

Goddamn, I was just watching him in Titanic last night. Godspeed, Mr. Paxton. This one hurts.

 

[Mysteryman]

Goddamn it, not Bill Paxton...

I always enjoyed his work, Frailty was one of his best movies I think. Gonna miss him, RIP.

He directed that one, too

 

[Isildur´s Heir]

I'm speechless.......

RIP Private Hudson
RIP BILL PAXTON

 

[Vartha]

Rest Well Bill

 

[chamber-music]

Damn RIP Bill Paxton.

Paxton added some much needed to Charisma to Agent's Of Shield when he joined as the guest villain. He signaled the shows upward trajectory into being a good show in my opinion.

I wonder what this means for Paxton's Training Day series?

 

[Krystal]

Sad for his family. So young to lose their dad. Married to same woman for 30years -- impressive, especially in Hollywood.

 

[TeeKay]

Rip

 

[Slick]

RIP Bill. Loved him in Big Love.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Oh.., The consumate character actor. From Terminator, to Aliens, Agents of SHIELD and Edge Of Tomorrow... I dare say we all have seen him in something.

 

[Ivan Drago]

Very sad. 61 is too young to die. RIP.

 

[Warhorse]

Awe, damn. I loved Bill Paxton! He was one of my biggest crushes when growing up. He was great in everything he did, Weird Science, Terminator, Aliens......

RIP.

 

[TheDreamMaster]

Oh man, no. 61 is too young to go. RIP Bill Paxton.

 

[Dave McFly]

This one is up there with Robin Williams.

Bill Paxton was such a permanent and highly appreciated fixture of my childhood and pop culture experience.

Weird Science
Terminator
Aliens
Predator 2
True Lies
Tombstone
Apollo 13
Frailty

I guess some could say he was one of those actors who played themselves or who's the same every role. My response? Who cares? Paxton had such a lovable and endearing personality it would've been foolish to stray from it. In fact, Paxton improved everything he was in a few notches with his magnetic and fun persona.

I guess one of the reasons this bothers me cause I know there are plenty of future films that could use a shot of Paxton. His soul shined on screen and it either warmed my heart or made me laugh in my gut.

Hail, Paxton.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

The guy worked with so many people in film and you never heard about BTS nonsense.

 

[Superhero 101]

Rip bill Paxton I remember him watching him in aliens and titanic true lies twister and tombstone. He was a great actor and will be missed.

 

[CELTICPRED]

I haven't been this broken up over an actor passing in quite some time. I can't remember anyone saying a bad thing about him, he just had the every man feel like you could go grab a beer with him.

Just makes me think of his death as Morgan in Tombstone. A very powerful scene. "Remember what I said about seeing a light when you're dying?........it aint true, I don't see a damn thing..."

Very powerful scene and such an underrated character actor. This one is going to sting for a while. He's in a better place, hopefully being extreme with Philip Seymour Hoffman chasing Tornadoes.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Interesting that he's the only actor to be killed on screen by all three of these iconic villains: the Terminator, the Predator and the Alien.

[Gee]

RIP Hudson.

I've blocked AvP from my mind... But yes, you're right.

Dammit

 

[Faora]

No way!!! ((((

Bill was great in Predator 2. The whole cast was great in the film. "And The doctor says, 'I need a semen, stool and urine sample.' I say, 'Gee, doc, I'm in a big hurry, can I just leave my underwear?"

Anyone but Bill and that line just isn't as good or as greasy.

 

[Teelie]

That was a depressing surprise to see in the news. I was not expecting him to be lost so soon. Complications from heart surgery they are reporting.
