damn

Val Edward Kilmer had a grand mix in him—Cherokee, Irish, German, and Swedish—a true blend of cultures. But to be even a wee bit Irish earns my highest respect. I'll raise a glass and toast to the celebration of his remarkable life! Sláinte!

So sad. Loved him in The Saint. So cool.

The Salton Sea - wildly underrated

RIP Val

he was also the badguy in MacGruber, Dieter von Cunth, which is a great movie. he was always great. Heat is one of my top ten favorite movies.

edit: see The Ghost and the Darkness if you haven't yet, also a great Val Kilmer movie

Oh shit, I remembered The Saint but I totally spaced that he was in this

Great movie, one of my favs as a kid. I always used to say I had a friend as a teen where when we were together we were like the Ghost and the Darkness. Got into a lot of trouble. But got away with a lot of it

(One example is I went to his ex’s high school and cut a tiny hole in her car’s soft top and dumped a full vial of elk urine inside as retaliation for something she had her cronies do to him…)

“Problem was when they were together. Alone they were just bullies, but together... they were lethal.”

Dang I haven't thought about that movie in 20 years, Ima watch it.

[NopeNopeNopeNope]

If I ever go to Chicago I made a pledge to pay them a visit at the Field museum

[atomicpaul]

good movie. i wore out my vhs copy, then dvds came out. dating myself. fun fact: i lived in valdosta during college, the real doc holliday got his undergrad degree there (or some equivalent) 'round the time the civil war was wrapping up.

The Saint was also good. i don't think I've ever seen Real Genius, wife loves that one, will watch tonight in Val's honor

One of the best shootouts in cinema history but I don't think it's worth like ~2 mil max, maybe it was in 90's dollars tho

Yea him and that hottie as F redhead shadow knight in Willow got into a long term relationship after the movie because of the movie

Let’s be real though, his acting for Madmartigan wasn’t nearly as good as Doc Holiday

I just idolized the character as a kid. He was the reluctant hero, but also a cocky bastard. Telling everyone he was the best, bragging about himself. But he could back it up. He had just the right amount of fun confidence where it didn’t come across as too much of a snobby douche. It was just that he was good, he knew he was good, and he was going to tell everyone he was good lol

Movie heroes since have evolved to be more of a wisecracker type when they are cocky, like Deadpool. Which is fine too, I guess

Sorsha standards were pretty high, rejecting him and generally beating the shit outta him until she sees him kill a giant dragon monster

Oh yea, and not only were heroes better back then

But so were villains. Comparing Bavmorda to the latest Evil Queen from Snow White as an example of how to play a good vs a garbage female villain:

love this quote, learned the word rough from this movie.

I use it, spo-ri-adically (https://youtu.be/1-gXK2wgsLA?t=62).

the timeline where they cast Kilmer in Mission impossible 1 instead of cruise is prolly amazing
