Bill Paxton's Finest Performance

Post by **benheck** » Wed Jul 20, 2005 2:14 pm

Bill Paxton is my favorite actor! (No really, I'm serious!)

But... which of his career-defining roles was truly the best? That is for you to decide!

In the meantime "How about a nice, greasy pork sandwich served on a dirty ashtray?"

since I only remember him from true lies, that's what I voted

His role in "Weird Science" was good. (I recognized the character description before I recognized the name.)

Who will be the first to link him to Kevin Bacon in 6 steps or less?

i chose titanic, it was a great preformance, that would have been funny if he also played his grandfather on the titanic (if he was there)

Bill Paxton? you surely can't mean the Bill Paxton...

which mega-role was his best...

Maybe it was the one where he freed the Jews from Egypt...oh wait, that wasn't him....
Or was he the one with all the in-and-out ultraviolence...wait...no...
How about that time he was the guy with the 3 Austin Minis...

no, wait! He was the one played useless #3 in Aliens! I loved that part.

I shouldn't talk, Peter Sellers and Godzilla are my favs.

What was that movie, they show it on Scifi from time to time...the one where he kills demons in the name of god. I thought that was a pretty female of the dog species' movie.

I was never a huge fan of Twister, dont remember him from Weird Science. And havent seen any of the others.

Why not put in Predator 2 or Navy SEALS? He plays the same guy in those ones too.

I like it when he is a little farther over the edge than normal. So my vote is either for his character in Brain Dead or The Dark Backward.

The movie is called Frailty and was actually directed by Paxton as well.
