Bill Paxton has died

[Drifter]

Passed at age 61 due to complications from surgery according to family representatives as reported by TMZ... On a side note, Judge Wapner also went Sunday to that great people's court in the sky at age 97, presumably due to being 97.

Oh, man. Paxton...Terminator, Titanic, Aliens, Tombstone...Weird Science...

 

RIP -

 

 

Indeed.

[Mr. Hakujin]

Fare thee well, Chet.

For every sci-fi geek and outcast misfit from the late 80s to today he was an oft overlooked but welcome omnipresence in all our favorite films. He will be missed and his loss will be felt more than most realize. So here's to the paragon of supporting characters; rest easy you goofball, sleazebag, badass.
