I honestly loved him in everything thing he did. If I saw that he was going to be in something, I knew it would be a winner. Such a tragic way to go at his age 😿
Wow! This was a really great, informative video on one of my favorite actors. It was so sad when he died. Very unexpected. Thanks 😊 for the great video, Steve. 😃
The first time I really remember seeing him was in Weird Science. I was a huge fan of Training Day (both the movie and the tv series). I could hardly believe it when he passed away.
I remembered watching him in the Movie Twister as a little kid. Since then I've seen him in so many more movies! I was so sad when i learned he passed away. Thanks for posting about newer artists!
I loved Bill in everything, my favorites are Weird Science and Frailty. That said, he was great in everything, I can't think of a film he didn't add value to.
He was one of my favorite actors ever. I don't have to mention which movies, all of them. True Lies is great. A Simple Plan or Aliens might be my favorite. You can't go wrong.
I guess tombstone was my favorite movie that he was in and maybe my favorite role of his. But everything he did was good. I always had such a crush on Bill Paxton. Gone too soon.
I was never a fan, but I was aware of his work ethic and prolific output. He was an actors’ actor and presumably proud of his rise from a boy from cowtown to the lights of L.A.
Mr. Paxton was an excellent actor and one of my favorites from Bill was the movie called One False Move , he died way too young . Thank you for the post I love your channel
I concur with you. He was a riot in true lies. That role was written for him and made him look like a comic genius. I really loved his work and talents. He is missed.
Bill Paxton played his roles with aplomb both in feature films and in television. His death was very stunning because he had so much more to offer. I liked him in Twister and Apollo 13 and One False Move. Thanks for uploading:)
He would have just kept going , too. Never even knew he was sick, then heard he was gone. Yes, he did any role well. True lies and twister were great, when they had the twister ride at universal in Florida he narrated and did a good job with that too. Thank you steve
Agreed this was indeed a sad one, if memory serves the family sued the hospital. True Lies and Aliens definitely top my list! Thanks again for your content Steve!
Aliens. How he covered the spectrum of human emotions and redeemed himself by taking out a bunch of those horrid creatures was one of the highlights of the great movie ❤
“The Terminator” was the first time I remember seeing him, but even though only on-screen for a few minutes, he was definitely memorable. I thought he did a great job in “Aliens” as the terrified young Marine. Enjoyed his performances in “ Titanic” & “Apollo 13,” too. I was shocked when I heard he died. Really miss him!
I think the one I'm always going to remember him for was Twister... what a show. :) But the one that's special to me is Frailty. That was a really strange movie and playing the dad in that movie believably and making him a sympathetic character couldn't have been easy, but Bill was a natural at it.
Lost my dad couple of months back, he was in his sixties as well.. Didn't see it coming, in today's world I expected he will be for many more years to come but all I have now is his memories... My dad liked Paxton as well... Love u dad, will miss u.
I loved "Twister" and "WIERD Science ". He was in that one, yes? Being turned into an ugly creature for a short time. I was shocked and felt he was taken too soon from us. He did more than I realized and so young. At least he us with us in the movies. 🙏
Bill Paxton was a fine actor , but one of my very favorite things he did was voice Dave Robicheaux in the James Lee Burke novels , made into books on tape and cd . I retired from long haul truck driving and the James Lee Burke books on cd certainly made the miles go by a lot faster . Bill had that Louisiana accent down pat . It never sounded like some Hollywood actor trying to imitate it , he sounded like a native . A very fine job !
I love watching Bill Paxton movies! My favorite though is probably, A Simple Plan, with Billy Bob Thornton. Bill had to go in for an operation, which he was very nervous about. He felt he wouldn't make it off the operating table alive, which sadly, he didn't.
No mention of his greatest role as Coconut Pete in Club Dread. Not really his greatest, but damn funny. I really can't nail down a favorite. Bill was the best.
Date of marriage needs clarification?🙂
My Mistake...Paxton married Kelly Rowan in 1979 and they divorced a year later. He later met Louise Newbury and they were married in 1987.
Morton922, clarify your presence now😊
I rewatched that part 3x. 1997 to 1980? Thank you for clarifying that.
One of the most criminally underrated actors of all time.
In deed he was
In deed he was

Loved Bill Paxton...movie camera loved him too
Bill’s fans were virtually everyone! His smile made you feel like you knew him. His acting was superb.
OH Man, so many great movies. Tomestone, "Don't let 'em get you little brother." Aliens..wow thanks Steve another great clip.
Classic.
I liked him in alot of movies. Tombstone and Twister my favorites.
He was the best in everything he was in. He is definitely missed.
I honestly loved him in everything thing he did. If I saw that he was going to be in something, I knew it would be a winner. Such a tragic way to go at his age 😿
I just watched Aliens two days ago and man did he steal the whole movie. Bill was in so many great films - RIP and thank you!
Very watchable actor, great in every movie he was in, very sadly missed
So talented. So tragic. He cracked me up in True Lies!
Bill was a lovely actor especially TITANTIC and TWISTER. What a career.
I always liked his work.
I never knew he was the same age as me. I just can't pick a favorite role. He was great in everything. He definitely passed way too soon. 💔
What a beautiful man, inside and outside!
Wow! This was a really great, informative video on one of my favorite actors.
It was so sad when he died. Very unexpected. Thanks 😊 for the great video, Steve. 😃

One of my favourites indeed

All around good actor ! He was Awesome in my favorite movie ALIENS !!
He was really good in True lies and Twister... Some of my childhoods favourite movies.. thanks for the video..
He had one intangible I can identify...an extreme likability
Weird science, aliens, nightcrawler, tombstone
I'll always remember him in "Wierd Science." His classic line, "It's snowing in my room da##it!" Absolutely hilarious!😂😂
I loved Bill in everything, my favorites are Weird Science and Frailty. That said, he was great in everything, I can't think of a film he didn't add value to.

True Lies is great. A Simple Plan or Aliens might be my favorite. You can't go wrong.
Yes, A Simple Plan was fantastic! I couldn’t agree more.
Love your channel keep up the good work
Bill Paxton was a really great actor. My favorite...TWISTER comes to mind for me.
I guess tombstone was my favorite movie that he was in and maybe my favorite role of his. But everything he did was good. I always had such a crush on Bill Paxton. Gone too soon.
I was never a fan, but I was aware of his work ethic and prolific output. He was an actors’ actor and presumably proud of his rise from a boy from cowtown to the lights of L.A.
Mr. Paxton was an excellent actor and one of my favorites from Bill was the movie called One False Move , he died way too young . Thank you for the post I love your channel
Always got his name confused with, "Will Patton", but loved him in everything he did.
You left out my FAVORITE movie with Bill Paxton: the 1987 vampire classic, Near Dark. “I don’t like ‘em when they ain’t been shaved.” 😂. RIP Bill
He was terrific.
Bill was my favorite as Hudson in Aliens. "Game over, man! Game over."
I think one of his best rolls was A Simple Plan (1998). It was probably the best film no one ever heard of.
No mention of Near Dark. "I hate it when they ain't been shaved" Best line in the whole damn film.....
I concur with you. He was a riot in true lies. That role was written for him and made him look like a comic genius. I really loved his work and talents. He is missed.
I really enjoyed his role in the movie Twister.
Thank you for bringing this video to us. Another home run! I always learn something from your video
I never knew what happened to him. Great actor. I liked him in all the movies. Still sad.
Bill Paxton played his roles with aplomb both in feature films and in television. His death was very stunning because he had so much more to offer. I liked him in Twister and Apollo 13 and One False Move. Thanks for uploading:)

I loved him in everything but Frailty is my favorite. All the actors did a great job in it. I hate he died so young.
Gone way too soon. Thank you for sharing these memories.❤
A great actor! My favorite was in Titanic and as Randall McCoy in the Hatfield's and McCoys.
Gone to soon, I really enjoyed his movies...felt like he was an exceptional actor...and seemed like a good dude!
I like your brief and concise presentation style. Well done good sir.
I really love that movie. Greatest game ever played.
Agreed this was indeed a sad one, if memory serves the family sued the hospital. True Lies and Aliens definitely top my list! Thanks again for your content Steve!
He was 4-5 years older than me. I always enjoyed his acting work, I pray he was saved.
An underrated great film of his is "One False Move". Highly recommended.
you left out Near Dark 1987. He played an awesome vampire running around Oklahoma. My favorite line "I hate it when they aint been shaved!"
To answer your question, Frailty is my favorite Paxton film.
Me too, and hard to believe it was his first time as director.
Aliens. How he covered the spectrum of human emotions and redeemed himself by taking out a bunch of those horrid creatures was one of the highlights of the great movie ❤
Yes as the fake spy Simon, it just keeps getting better he's a damn used car salesman..great versatile actor thanks for the share.
Our favorite one is twister
My favourite Bill Paxton movie which was not mentioned, was A Simple Plan.
I loved him in everything I saw him in. And there are still a few of his I haven’t seen.
I had no idea he had passed away. RIP
Aliens was my fav. He was SUPER as Hudson.
“The Terminator” was the first time I remember seeing him, but even though only on-screen for a few minutes, he was definitely memorable. I thought he did a great job in “Aliens” as the terrified young Marine. Enjoyed his performances in “ Titanic” & “Apollo 13,” too. I was shocked when I heard he died. Really miss him!
Great actor Tombstone is a modern classic and Twister
I think the one I'm always going to remember him for was Twister... what a show. :) But the one that's special to me is Frailty. That was a really strange movie and playing the dad in that movie believably and making him a sympathetic character couldn't have been easy, but Bill was a natural at it.
Twister was my favorite
Here’s a clue to my favorite Paxton role: “Game over man! Game over!”
[Aliens, of course]
I was going to make sure that quote was in the comments if I didn't find that someone had already done so.
I especially loved him in True Lies and Titanic. He played a really cool character in Titanic.
Chet in Weird Science. Now that was a performance! 👍
“How do I get out of this chicken shit outfit?!”
His Greatest line.
A Simple Plan - great movie with Bill in a starring role.
A great actor gone into eternity! 😢
Now I have to watch True Lies again! Love all your videos❤
Lost my dad couple of months back, he was in his sixties as well.. Didn't see it coming, in today's world I expected he will be for many more years to come but all I have now is his memories... My dad liked Paxton as well... Love u dad, will miss u.
Game over man! Game over!
Only one to fight a Terminator, an Alien & a Predator!
The Trifecta!
True Lies is my favorite. He was so hilarious.
He appeared in an episode of tales from the crypt, he was phenomenal!
Aliens, True Lies, Titanic, Predator 2, Commando, Terminator and Twister all awesome
What a great career! My fav pic he was in is Aliens.
He was awesome 🎉
Game over. man!
Classic
Cheers for that! ... I've only recently STOPPED being 61! 🤣
True Lies...I forgot how awesome he was in that movie.
Holy smokes, I never knew that he passed away...
I always enjoyed the movies he was in, the most memorable had to be aliens, twister, tombstone...
I loved "Twister" and "WIERD Science ". He was in that one, yes? Being turned into an ugly creature for a short time. I was shocked and felt he was taken too soon from us. He did more than I
realized and so young. At least he us with us in the movies. 🙏

You have a great voice and pace. Great vid
Thank you kindly!
My favorite part he played was in Twister with Helen Hunt.
Bill Paxton was a great vampire in the movie. Near. Dark
I can't pick a favorite, as I enjoyed all the movies he acted in. Top 4 perhaps? True Lies, Wierd Science, Aliens and Twister.
Wasn't he in the movie "While You Were Sleeping" with Sandra Bullock? Good movie!👍
GAME OVER MAN!
He was great in U 571.
I love watching Bill Paxton movies! My favorite though is probably, A Simple Plan, with Billy Bob Thornton. Bill had to go in for an operation, which he was very nervous about. He felt he wouldn't make it off the operating table alive, which sadly, he didn't.
Wow didn't know he was gone already
The only actor to be killed by a Terminator, a Predator & an ALIEN
Good one!!
I’d say Twister but he was good in every film he was in
That's it, game over. So many great roles but Hudson in Aliens takes some beating.
No mention of his greatest role as Coconut Pete in Club Dread. Not really his greatest, but damn funny. I really can't nail down a favorite. Bill was the best.
"Pina Coladaburg" was a big hit record.
Twister and Titanic! Oh, and Frailty.
Fish Heads, by Barnes and Barnes was made by Bill Paxton, and Bill Mumy.
For me it has to be Aliens. He added a subtle comic relief element in a very tense movie.
The son of my city, Ft. Worth, I was in Dallas on that sad day when Kennedy was killed.
