    Well, is he?

    My top 5 Emilio Estevez Films:

    1. Judgement Night- movie go hard
    2. Repo Man- Backed up by an incredible score/ 80s punk scene
    3. The Outsiders- Greasers vs Socs
    4. The Mighty Ducks- Hockey
    5. The Breakfast Club- John Hughes man!!

    His father was half Visigoth, really more of a naming technicality than anything else.

    His paternal grandfather was a Spaniard and his grandmother was Irish. Don't know about the other side.

    I'll go with That Was Then, This is Now and Young Guns II; but both purely for soundtracktual reasons.

    To me, Repo man is his best film. It's awesome in every way. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing.

    Kinda and sorta also reminds me of John Carpenter's They Live, both these films would make a good double feature.

    The former two did it to hedge their bets in the most competitive career in all of human history, the latter to distinguish himself from being a third wheel, and to acknowledge how stupid it would have sounded after Emilio.

    The only movie I really liked with him in it was Young Guns part I and II. He had the perfect psychopathic expression to play that the part. "I'll make you famous."
