Top Secret! is a gem of a movie and I will be watching it tomorrow in his honour.
Okay, what’s the name of the movie? Yes, what’s the name of the movie. What movie? Top secret? Yes! What’s the name of the movie? That’s the name! The movie’s name is that? If you’re referring to the top secret, then yeah, that’s the name of the movie!
What fake doggy doo?
Telling that, as of now, most comments mention a different film of his. Kilmer was great in so many things! I’ll just add Kiss Kiss Bang Bang to the pile, RIP to a great actor
Open the dictionary and under the word idiot, what do you see?
A picture of me?
No! The definition of the word idiot! Which you are!
(done from memory, so likely not 100% accurate)
Heat.
Any day we lose a Batman is a bad day. RIP Iceman.
I shall honor him by going Skeet Surfin’ tomorrow.
If everybody had a 12 gauge
With a sufboard too
You see em shootin’ and surfin’
From here to Malibu
Thank you. Love this movie.
In the immortal words of Socrates, I drank what?
RIP Doc!
Still my favorite role for him.
Does any body know what movie this gif is from? Or the name of the actor so I can go through his filmography.
I’m looking for a movie my dad and I watched once a long time ago. I didn’t give the movie to much of a chance back then. Just liked the quality time. I think it had this actor in it. Id really like to find and rewatch it.
That’s Robert Redford in the film Jeremiah Johnson.
Thanks, didn’t recognize him with a beard.
No worry, I didn’t either until it was pointed out to me.
The movie is good, but it’s very possible that Jeremiah Johnson IRL was a murder hobo.
He’ll always be my Huckleberry.
Personally believed he carried that movie. Without him it would have been different to me.
The greatest swordsman that ever lived
Now I’m Sadmartigan.
“Wyatt Earp is my friend.”
That scene always gets me, it’s one of the greatest in all cinema.
“hell I got lots of friends”
… “I don’t.”
God damn that scene gets me every time.
Man, I don’t normally get choked up about celebrities but some of Val Kilmer’s movies got me through a pretty dark time in the late 90s. I was 8 when Willow came out, we wore that VHS out. In 2000 I lived in the boonies taking care of an indoor broccoli growing operation in Colorado. The only thing I had was 20 or so books, a box of VHS tapes, and a 13" TV VCR combo. I must have watched Tombstone and The Saint 10000 times.
I am still friends with the guy who worked with me and anytime he asks me what happened to or where is so and so I 100% answer with “He ran off to live in the forest, in the nude.”
How has nobody mentioned Real Genius yet?
That was the first movie I saw him in. He defintely stole all of the scenes with his great acting chops.
Not entirely surprising I guess, but still a sad one. Somehow stayed just a touch under the radar despite some of the most iconic roles of the 80s and 90s.
IIRC he had throat cancer and why he slowed down acting
This dude made movies so good.
Tombstone Batman Top gun The saint Prince of Egypt Red planet
Shame his career was cut short. I assume he lost his speech because God needed it after watching Prince of Egypt.
SIR/MADAM! I call foul! Most foul!
Your list is horribly disingenuous, due to the absence of Val Kilmer’s greatest movie:
Ah hell no.
Real Genius. That’s where it’s at
I watched that one much later in life but it was in fact good.
It is a cinematic triumph. Peter Cushing himself called it his greatest role! Well, he might have said that.
Fun fact that I actually just learned today. The cast made from Mr Cushing’s face for his scene in Top Secret was used by the SFX wizards working on Rogue One to digitally recreate the actor for the movie.
Imagine that, a casting for a prosthetic made over 40 years ago was used to recreate the image of Peter Cushing so that he could appear as Grand Moff Tarkin again.
Have to admit, that rather stunned me when I read it.
Wow
The greatest movie ever made in fact ☻ (IMO of course). I just watched it this morning after hearing the news. RIP Nick Rivers
Uhh, Heat???
Can’t forget Chris, from Heat. Took one in his neck. RIP
The Saint will be missed.
Whew, thought i was gonna be the only weirdo that enjoyed that one.
How has Willow not been mentioned? He was really good as a halfling!
But Kilmer didnt play a halfling
Shhhh! I’m trying to get people to watch it!
But it has Kilmer in it, that’s all you have to say
If Gary Oldman can play a little person, why can’t Val Kilmer play a halfling?
Because he’s dead!
That wouldn’t stop Gary Oldman!
Either just coincidence, or I may have found a GAM listener in the wild.
GAM?
