Maybe not for Twister (though props to him for even being able to deliver some putrid dialogue in it) but to not even be nominated for One False Move or A Simple Plan is ridiculous. Always underappreciated. 😢

Bill Paxton was an insanely great and versatile actor! May he R.I.P. Gone far too young!!!

[@RBboyVR]

Bill Paxton, a man that helped create so many of my absolute favorite movies from the 80's and 90's and thus gave me so much enjoyment and great memories. He'll never know this about some guy who grew up in Northampton and is now living in Burton-upon-Trent in England, but I certainly won't be the only one that feels this way. Thanks Bill, hope you enjoyed your work as much as I have through the years!

[@pdinnj]

Very well said!!! He was a very talented man!!

[@ShawnDaviskillerdiary]

Bill Paxton always stole all the scenes and put a wide, genuine grin of happiness on my mug more than any other actor on screen.

[@christophercaleb8998]

I know, right?! Like in "Aliens"... I'll never forget when he was a soldier and he was saying to Ripley, " ... man they're gonna come in here man, and THEY'RE GONNA COME IN HERE AND KILL US MAN...". Not a wonderful line, but his delivery was fucking great. Hopefully he will be spotted hanging out with Bogart, Elvis , Dean & Marilyn... & it only took me 2 years to find out! Kinda feel like a tard but, better late than never. Farewell my boy!

[@elwynpupangpilyo7217]

No shit... he was great in that. He truly did always give a memorable performance. I'm not even saying that to blow his death smoke up peoples asses... He was a character actor, but one who I remember what I first saw him.... how many actors can you actually say that about?

[@ronaldh8446]

@@christophercaleb8998 - When I saw Aliens in 1986, I made sure to watch the end credits to put a name to the actor who played Hudson. Then I made it a point to see everything he appeared in. I don't cry when celebrities die. Two exceptions: John Ritter and Bill. 😢

absolutely beautiful rest In peace Bill Paxton you will live forever in our memories

[@gargos25]

Many who look at this seem to come to the conclusion that he wasn't that much of an actor because he seemed to simply be natural. Nonetheless, there is always a reason behind such a big success. His main strength was his elusive ability to make the movies he starred in great. He was a master in improving the atmosphere on the set and making people around him shine due to his love for the job and his respect for other actors. To me, he was/is one of Hollywood's best!

[@dcgaming9398]

Couldn't have said it any better myself.

[@cats400]

Bill Paxton's death really hit me hard. I grew up watching the movie Twister and thoroughly enjoyed every role he played through the years.

[@christanner3761]

Nice tribute to Bill. Thank you.

[@karlastraight2458]

What a great tribute- damn good for you! His wonderful movie Fraility is still so underrated and unknown, and he's such a heartbreaker in Twister. Lance Henriksen has shared some wonderful memories over the years of the films they worked on together especially the hilarity of the filming the Aliens "knife scene". Oh Bill, how we will miss you

[@VintageAbed]

Quality! I think that best describes him as an actor. You never thought "Bill Paxton sucks in this movie" because you knew he didn't. He wasn't someone I loved,but that was because I took what he brought on the screen for granted. I expected greatness and he never failed to deliver.

[@tanishazoa138]

His comedic role in true lies always makes me laugh. He provided an escape for anyone fortunate enough to see him on the screen.

[@joannahuett3626]

Very well done. I'm sure Bill would be honored by this. I had no idea he was in so many features.

[@misfitdanzig8152]

I love you Bill Paxton you're awesome especially as Hudson. When I heard he died I said and text "game over man".

[@hypnos9336]

I just started randomly thinking about this guy and got emotional. I didn't even watch some of his movies.. and it's not like I thought about him much when he was alive. but he was a piece of my childhood and looking back he was a hell of an actor too. just one of those celebrities that died way too early. really wish he was still here with us. And for anybody wondering I think my favorite movie with him is "A Simple Plan."

[@SteveReno187]

It's sad to hear Bill has died, i thought he was still alive until now, R.I.P dude, thanks 4 the memories

[@positivelyliv]

Two years on and I still can't really believe he's dead. Watching interviews with him you really get the feeling that he truly enjoyed what he did and was nothing less than a wonderful human being. This is by far one of the best tributes to his career I've seen, and I always make the time to come back to it every now and again to remind myself of how truly great he was. Rest in peace, Bill. We still miss you.

[@bennett865]

I was lucky enough to work for/with him on the tv show Training Day. We went on a xmas Haidas break. During which he had a routine operation and died as a result of post op procedure. We were devastated. A really good guy.

What a career he had. He was a part of many of the biggest, most important films of the past 30 years. And he was great in many other lesser known films too. What stood out for me about him is he wasn't afraid to take on whatever his role required, even if it was sometimes at at his own expense. One of my favorites of his was the 1992 film One False Move.
