    Default RIP Bill Paxton

    He's like the only actor that's been killed by a Predator, an Alien, and a Terminator.

    So true.

    He was a great actor. You hate him as Chet from Weird Science to a hero in Apollo 13 and Twister. Twister was my favorite of his.

    He was so young. Only 61. I wonder what kind of surgery he was having.

    RIP Bill.

    Brothers for life. RIP Glenn

    I'm not sure I believe in fate, but I know that crossing paths with Glenn Lewis Frey in 1970 changed my life forever, and it eventually had an impact on the lives of millions of other people all over the planet. It will be very strange going forward in a world without him in it. But, I will be grateful, every day, that he was in my life. Rest in peace, my brother.

    RIP Bill Paxton. He was so young and from what I've seen it sounds like it was just a procedure and something went wrong. It is rare but does happen sometimes. Bill was such a great actor and nice person, and I remember him the most from "Titanic" and the "Hatfield's & McCoy's" miniseries (I'm a Hatfield descendent through my Mom's family). I feel so bad for his family.

    Wikipedia said it was complications from heart surgery. I don't know how true that is, but its probably true.

    I didn't know that he was in Edge of Tomorrow when I first saw it. He's a good actor, if I can't ever recognize him in anything.

    RIP Bill Paxton! My favorites are Tombstone and Twister. And he was from Ft. Worth Texas, not too far from me.

    I was so saddened and shocked when I heard about Bill Paxton's passing. Another great talent gone way too soon. I loved a lot of his roles - Titanic was one of my favorites because of the quirky dry sense of humor he brought to the role. My heart goes out to his loved ones.
