I honestly loved him in everything thing he did. If I saw that he was going to be in something, I knew it would be a winner. Such a tragic way to go at his age 😿
Wow! This was a really great, informative video on one of my favorite actors. It was so sad when he died. Very unexpected. Thanks 😊 for the great video, Steve. 😃
I loved Bill in everything, my favorites are Weird Science and Frailty. That said, he was great in everything, I can't think of a film he didn't add value to.
I remembered watching him in the Movie Twister as a little kid. Since then I've seen him in so many more movies! I was so sad when i learned he passed away. Thanks for posting about newer artists!
The first time I really remember seeing him was in Weird Science. I was a huge fan of Training Day (both the movie and the tv series). I could hardly believe it when he passed away.
I guess tombstone was my favorite movie that he was in and maybe my favorite role of his. But everything he did was good. I always had such a crush on Bill Paxton. Gone too soon.
I was never a fan, but I was aware of his work ethic and prolific output. He was an actors’ actor and presumably proud of his rise from a boy from cowtown to the lights of L.A.
Mr. Paxton was an excellent actor and one of my favorites from Bill was the movie called One False Move , he died way too young . Thank you for the post I love your channel
He was one of my favorite actors ever. I don't have to mention which movies, all of them. True Lies is great. A Simple Plan or Aliens might be my favorite. You can't go wrong.
Lost my dad couple of months back, he was in his sixties as well.. Didn't see it coming, in today's world I expected he will be for many more years to come but all I have now is his memories... My dad liked Paxton as well... Love u dad, will miss u.
Bill Paxton played his roles with aplomb both in feature films and in television. His death was very stunning because he had so much more to offer. I liked him in Twister and Apollo 13 and One False Move. Thanks for uploading:)
I concur with you. He was a riot in true lies. That role was written for him and made him look like a comic genius. I really loved his work and talents. He is missed.
Agreed this was indeed a sad one, if memory serves the family sued the hospital. True Lies and Aliens definitely top my list! Thanks again for your content Steve!
He would have just kept going , too. Never even knew he was sick, then heard he was gone. Yes, he did any role well. True lies and twister were great, when they had the twister ride at universal in Florida he narrated and did a good job with that too. Thank you steve
Aliens. How he covered the spectrum of human emotions and redeemed himself by taking out a bunch of those horrid creatures was one of the highlights of the great movie ❤
I think the one I'm always going to remember him for was Twister... what a show. :) But the one that's special to me is Frailty. That was a really strange movie and playing the dad in that movie believably and making him a sympathetic character couldn't have been easy, but Bill was a natural at it.
“The Terminator” was the first time I remember seeing him, but even though only on-screen for a few minutes, he was definitely memorable. I thought he did a great job in “Aliens” as the terrified young Marine. Enjoyed his performances in “ Titanic” & “Apollo 13,” too. I was shocked when I heard he died. Really miss him!
I loved "Twister" and "WIERD Science ". He was in that one, yes? Being turned into an ugly creature for a short time. I was shocked and felt he was taken too soon from us. He did more than I realized and so young. At least he us with us in the movies. 🙏
Bill Paxton was a fine actor , but one of my very favorite things he did was voice Dave Robicheaux in the James Lee Burke novels , made into books on tape and cd . I retired from long haul truck driving and the James Lee Burke books on cd certainly made the miles go by a lot faster . Bill had that Louisiana accent down pat . It never sounded like some Hollywood actor trying to imitate it , he sounded like a native . A very fine job !
He was enjoyable in every role, but he excelled in playing the chicken-hearted character in movies like Aliens and True Lies. A favorite scene was his role as a tough drill sergeant in The Edge of Tomorrow. When asked if he was an American, he said "No sir, I'm from Kentucky."
No mention of his greatest role as Coconut Pete in Club Dread. Not really his greatest, but damn funny. I really can't nail down a favorite. Bill was the best.
