Part of a movie that totally cemented my career choice. RIP

You know that's footage of the sequel right?

Yes, but it is when iceman's funeral. I mean I couldn't post the original volleyball scene, not appropriate for this thread

Might have to rewatch the film now

Val Kilmer, Star of ‘Batman Forever,’ ‘Tombstone,’ Dies at 65

Val Kilmer, star of "Batman Forever" and "Tombstone," has died. He was 65.

RIP Val. If I think about it there's been some amazing performances.

Hilarious in Top Secret. ( easily his best movie starting with the word "Top" )

Intense and brooding in Heat. No mean feat when in a flick with De Niro and Pacino at their best.

I liked him in Tombstone too

Jim Morrison as well !!!

thanks for the memories.

It got panned, but I liked him starring opposite the thinking man's tottie Elizabeth Shue in the Saint

[Bovidae]

Don't forget True Romance. I'll have to do a rewatch of Heat and Tombstone.

True Romance is outstanding but he was barely in it, did we ever even see his face ?

I can't remember if the Saint was good or not, might need a rewatch.

I liked him in Willow as well.

RIP

RIP Iceman.

[Nepia]

He played a Native American FBI agent in Thunderheart, I liked that film back in the day. Also starred Sam Shepard and Graham Greene.

When I was doing consulting with some Native American guys they had two factions, one that were convinced that Kilmer was native, and the other convinced he wasn't.

Akin to our “Is Rieko Ioane a centre” factions.

Top Secret is the most underrated comedy of all time.

The Ghost and the Darkness is an underrated classic. Hamy as hell but fuck its good

Was great to see and hear(sort of) Val in Top Gun: Maverick. Such a great scene
R.I.P Iceman.
