RIP Val, great actor IMHO, and was in some great films, eg: Heat, Top Gun and Tombstone to name but three.....
Although I was a big fan of the original Top Gun, I was not a big fan of TG Maverick, but was glad to see Val made an appearance.
Rest in Peace Iceman.....

RIP, great actor and for me again was my favourite in Tombstone, he was great in both of the Top Gun films too.

RIP Val. A real screen presence.

I just watched that Tombstone clip and I'm really not sure I've ever seen the film (but that could just be my appalling memory playing up as I'm a big fan of all 3 actors featured in the clip and I love a Western). It's funny because over the years I've seen and heard "I'm your huckleberry" quoted hundreds of times (it was the favourite saying of the guy who used to run a private airsoft site I used to go to down in Cornwall), but I'd never been quite curious enough to check why it's a popular quote and where it came from. So now I know.

You would remember if you saw it, one of the great Westerns.

ATB, Ed

Well worth watching, even if you have already seen it. A great film....

i grew my facial hair after seeing him as doc holiday, he was great

 

[TD_boy]

The epitome of modern cool I reckon.
Under-rated when he was alive.
He will be missed.

Fantastic actor.
Will be very much missed
RIP

My daughter loved Top Secret. She also decided to try her hand at painting. She took the news pretty badly.

I have a mate who is a dwarf actor and was in Willow as one of his first gigs. Said to me many times that Kilmer was great - and very respectful of the other actors and extras.

Great actor, enjoyed his films. Very sad and taken far too soon.

Me too, he’s been unwell for a while though.

A damned fine actor taken from us far too soon.
