RIP Bill Paxton

[oc_in_fw]

I have delayed posting here to think of what to say. I (jokingly) used to say I have an irrational hatred of him, that he was my nemesis in Hollywood, even though I liked the movies he was in. Recently I found out he was from Fort Worth, and maybe if I somehow bumped into him I would find him a good guy. Then, he dies on my birthday. RIP- I will continue to enjoy your films.

It's the first thing that came to mind when I heard the news.

RIP. Game over man

Of all of his lines, this is the only one that keeps running in my head!
Aliens, Terminator, Predator 2, Twister, True Lies, Weird Science along with others that are all favorites of mine that he was in.
I think it's time for Bill Paxton movie marathon!

Mine too. In fact I came to this thread to see if anyone was thinking along those lines.

I think it's time for Bill Paxton movie marathon!

Agreed!

I liked him in a lot of different movies. There's a scene in True Lies when he and Arnold Schwarzenegger are driving in a convertible that makes me laugh every time.

Later on I really liked him in HBOs Big Love. This is a really underrated show and to this day I've never met someone who has seen it. They know what it is, they just wouldn't watch it. Give it a shot.
