    RIP. You can have your Aliens, or Twister, or Titanic. Weird Science. Chet. Nuff said.

    I don't even have to look up the quotes:

    "You two donkey dicks couldn't get laid in a morgue"

    "Boy, I wouldn't give a squirt of piss for your ass right now.

    "Do you think they're having fun being catatonic in a closet?

    "Lady, I want to get to the bottom of this ASAP. But first I'd like to... butter your muffin.

    "How about a nice, greasy pork sandwich served in a dirty ashtray?"

    "And I didn't think it was a whale's dick, honey."

    One of my favorites. Damn. If anyone hasn't seen it, Frailty (which he also directed) is a very underrated movie, as is A Simple Plan, which I need to rewatch soon.

    Back when my brother was working at Vespaio in Austin, he came into the kitchen after his meal, bro looks up and says "You're stewed, buttwad." Paxton laughs and says "Man, I just wanted to say thanks and let yall know that that was an amazing meal, yall are awesome" and bough the whole kitchen a couple of shift beers. I've heard a couple of similar stories from bartender friends, apparently he was a totally down to earth, happy, chill guy.

    Also, I just learned that this was his first credited acting gig:

    And the Nazis

    Man, I really like him. Such a legendary voice for an actor, too. You can hear his lines in your head. Very sad. RIP

    I must admit, I was thinking it.

    This sucks. I enjoyed his performances in every movie/show I saw him in. Great actor.

    Incredible Paxton performance and an underrated 90s noir classic.

    Yeah, he was great. I agree that Chet was always my favorite role of his, and he did a great job in that role. He did fantastic in every role he ever played. Sad news.

    RIP
