    Holy shit. Wow.
  • Man I loved weird science, "Chet......... my name is Chet."
  • This guy stole every scene he had in True Lies.

  • This scene......just tremendous

  • "For Christ's sake, will you cover yourself?" Totally forgot that was him in Weird Science. Also, really loved his performance in Frailty which he also directed.

    You have to wonder if when he was pronounced dead if someone actually said, "Game over man."

    Will always be remembered as the only man to face the Big 3 in Sci-fi Aliens, The Terminator and a Predator. R.I.P Bill Paxton

    He also faced having 3 wives in Big Love!

    Edit: I wasn't being a misogynistic ass and trying to compare aliens to wives, by the way. Sorry if thats how that came across. No one gave me a hard time about it, but for some reason it bothered me that it could be read like that.

    Oh the dreaded Bill Paxton/Pullman mix-up. Don't feel bad, I confuse these guys all the time myself.

    if you don't get the below image I'm sorry, but I did it on purpose Paxton was on the Lebatard show the other week and they kept making the joke. Apparently people you to come up to him and talk about Pullman rolesimage

    Oh right on. My bad. There's some other actor I always get the 2 confused with too but I can't think of his name.

    Edit: It's Will Patton. I get all 3 of these guys confused with each other all the damn time

    EDIT: thats not true. Lance Henriksen faced all 3 as well. Now, if you say androids can't die. Then Bill is the only one to die from all 3. But his terminator death is sketchy. because he is simply thrown against a wall.

  • Loved him as Morgan Earp in Tombstone. My favorite and most watched movie.

    There was a time when I could recite pretty much all his lines from Aliens unprompted. Oh glorious ill spent youth.

    I thought it was funny. As a married person, one spouse is plenty. Haha
    Okay, cool. I obsess over things sometimes. Much more than I should.

    Hey @Natter Cast why don't you guys do a podcast on Aliens at the same time the guys do mine on Bald Move? It comes after the next commission, There Will Be Blood
