I had honestly thought Val Kilmer had already passed. RIP. He had some great roles. Enough for us to overlook Batman.
Keep on rockin’ in the free world.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I'm not sure how it holds up since I haven't seen it in at least 25 years. But back in the day, it was a favorite. I have nothing but fond memories of that movie.E.H. Ruddock wrote:"Real Genius" is an underrated Kilmer movie.
I should give it a rewatch in honor of Val.

Re: R.I.P.
In Heat, After McCauley(DeNiro) and his crew seem to successfully pull off another bank robbery, they’re intercepted by Hanna(Pacino) and the LAPD out on the street, leading to a gunfight. This shootout sequence was so authentic and so detailed that it has been shown to U.S. Marine recruits as an example of perfect form under gunfire (via Esquire). In a behind-the-scenes featurette about Heat’s L.A. bank heist gunfight sequence, Val Kilmer says he had heard that when the moment his character reloads, Marine trainers tell recruits, “If you can’t change a clip as fast as this actor, get out of my army!”

Re: R.I.P.
Everyone I know who saw it fucking loved it and watched it multiple times. It’s an A+ 80s comedy. It’s universally adored, just criminally under seen.E.H. Ruddock wrote:"Real Genius" is an underrated Kilmer movie.

Re: R.I.P.
i have to say at this point when I think of Val Kilmer, I think of MacGruber. I feel like I got to know him in that movie. The real him. That movie is such a blast and he was so funny in it. No ego. Just hilarious.
RIP homey

"Real Genius" could be a top 10 of the 80s. It's such a fun movie.

I started watching Heat last night. First time since the theater maybe. Interesting experience, definitely a movie with a foot in two different eras.wease wrote:I think I’ll watch Heat and Tombstone this weekend.
