    Years ago, I met Val at a convention in Australia and he was also a favorite of my Mothers, she adored him in Tombstone and often quoted "I'm your Huckleberry" to me. As he signed my photos and Tombstone Bluray cover, I said to him, "My mum would have loved to met you", he said, "Well where is she?", I replied "Unfortunately she wouldn't be able to handle large crowds like this" and jokingly continued to say "I could get her on the phone to say hello though". Val said "Sure" a few minutes later Val was chatting to my Mother and told her "Wish you could have come today, we miss you here" My Mother was over the moon to chat with him saying her favorite quote back to him and they shared a laugh. I brought home a personalized signed photo to my mother of Val as Doc Holiday, which hung on her wall until her passing. I now have that photo and the most wonderful memory of Val making my mothers day. Thank you, Val.

You nor does anyone, understand what a supposed gods purpose for doing things would be. If god exists the idea that bad things wouldnt happen at all assumes a lot of other things. It assumes we arent meant to experience pain as a lesson. It assumes god is the only all powerful being (meaning the devil doesnt exist). Its just a dumb thing to say .

Or the "actors" that don't know to respect fellow actors (e.g. Steven Segal--when asked about other martial arts action stars like JCVD...Jeff Speakman...). There's a reason why guys like Stallone are still relevant and working decades later. While others disappear after a few films.
      They got so many things right with Top Gun. Actors, directing, photography, soundtrack...hoping for a "reference quality" 4k HDR Blu-Ray with Atmos. Demo worthy. Deserves it.

    I heard a great story about Val Kilmer once that brought a smile to my face. Apparently he was in some nightclub in france or England for a night out. Two guys who did not know him were sitting at the bar and having a good time. One guy gets up to take a leak and runs into Val in the Bathroom. He respectfully asked if Val could wind up his bar mate by pretending to know the guy in the bathroom like they were old friends. Val agreed. The guy walks back to the bar and brags that he ran into his Old Friend, Val Kilmer. The barmate called Bullshit , Until a couple of minutes later, Val Strolls up and talks to the guy from the bathroom like their were old friends. The Other guy just watched, Amazed. That is a Great Story and a great actor. Should have won the Oscar for Tombstone, as the best performance of the 20th century. RH DSD

It made me cry a lot too especially seeing how he has to talk now. He’s making the most of it though and it makes me happy that his kids are always with him! He’s such a sweetheart! When I was little I loved Willow and his character Madmartigan was always my favorite.

      My favorite role for him was Madmartigan in Willow. I also thought he did alright as Bruce Wayne/Batman in Batman Forever, but the hardcore comic book (nerd) fans didn't like that movie because they want to see a more dark and brooding Batman. But I think Kilmer played it just right. Christian Bale's phony brooding deep tone accent was just overkill... even Affleck does a better job at playing the role! I love how Michael Keaton got all pissed about working with the director when it came to making Batman Forever, and dropped out giving Kilmer the chance to play that role. And then years later, Keaton made Birdman, which basically depicts his own story of how he dropped out of the caped crusader role, that was then given to a better-looking younger actor (Kilmer). lol

He went into a store and crashed right through a glass window. I just knew he was going to be nominated just for the way he portrayed the fear and uncertainty behind that character. The Saint was also impressive. I can't pick a bad film I've seen him in.👍😊

    I have watched lots of Val Kilmer interviews I find him fascinating, He has always talked a little slow he is so full of authenticity he inspires me to live life in the moment. I also believe he should have gotten a oscar maybe even a couple but from listening to him when he talks about the films he has chosen to be a part of. I get the impression that a oscar is not his main objective he does not really even care if he is the lead character in the find he chooses. One Movie that comes to mind is Heat which he played 2nd lead when he asked why he took it he said because he gets to work with De Niro and Pacino he is a true artist who loves to live life and truly entertain people he is simply a joy to watch and to listen too. Btw he had to gain weight for either a film role or a performance in the theater if you google him now you will see he is in great shape. I pray his throat surgery does not affect his voice he has some great vocal abilities.
