“Why are you such a wanker, Chet?”
“Because I get off on it.”
RIP Bill
PVT Cage: MSG Farell, you’re an American.
MSG Farell: No, sir, I’m from Kentucky.
Game over man! Game over!!
That movie is a cult classic. Lance Henrikson may regret making it, but it is one of my guilty pleasure movies.
Noooo Not Fredo
Hope he didn’t die getting face work done like a woman I knew.
And this:
“You’re a coward and a liar putting your life above theirs. The good news is there’s hope for you, private. Hope in the form of glorious combat. Battle is the great redeemer. The fire and crucible in which the only true heroes are forged. The one place where all men truly share the same rank, regardless of what kind of parasitic scum they were going in. … I envy you, Cage. Tomorrow morning you will be baptized — born again.”
He had a great performance in Edge of Tomorrow, where he was cast as an opposite to his “Hudson” character in Aliens. I also loved him in True Lies. He was the kind of actor who could have gone unnoticed because he had small roles, except he was great at making the most of the role that he had. His famous “game over” line was improvised.
Paxton starred in, and directed, one of my favorite “unknown” horror movies: Frailty. It starts out looking like its going to be one of those “Christian bashing” movies but then takes some pretty interesting twists and turns.
Master Sergeant Farell: No, I’m not. Seems about the only honest thing you’ve said to me so far is your name.
Morgan’s death. (Best death scene ever)
He was in a show on now. Training day. Wonder what becomes if it
What was his cause of death?
Complications from surgery.
As I get older I am starting to think, when I get really sick and its time to go to the hospital, instead ratchet up the prayers and start planning a going away party, and do not go to the hospital.
Frailty is one of my favorite horror movies.
A very rare good story driven horror movie.
Goodbye, Bill.
Thanks.
I guess that thing (to me at least) is that I never knew his politics - he could have been a huge leftie for all I know (most of Hollyweird is) but by keeping his politics out of the equation it allowed me to enjoy his craft.
I’m constantly amazed that this simple rule of logic escapes most ‘weirders: “Why intentionally antagonize and alienate half of your potential audience?
He was also killed by ahnuuld in the best movie of all time - terminator 1.
Nice night for a walk eh?
Native born Texan Bill Paxton as Sam Houston from Texas Rising.

RIP Bill.
Only actor to be killed by Alien, Predator, and Terminator.
Ran out of cat lives...
