It was uncanny how much he looked like him

Top Secret. That's all I have to say.

Great actor. Fuck cancer.
Sircowdog1
My dad died last year of throat cancer. Fuck Cancer!
pandasmakemehappy
Also fuck being in a cult and not getting treatment because your cult tells you cancer isn't real.

Should have been the singer from the tea party.

I saw them live in a bar in London ON called Call the Office to kick off the Edges of Twilight tour. 50 people there max. Just awesome.

I know where the bar was when I saw them but I can remember the name as it's been torn down.

Hands down one of the least appreciated actors who’s ever lived
Rangerbobby
It was Memorex
meemolade
I love Val Kilmer. Great actor
LoudAngryJerk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYl9inLIp7s is one of my favorites of his
zombiebatman
Val Kilmer was the good guy in Top Gun. Prove me wrong.
impedimenta
Also better looking.
PolarHailStorm
He was. Tom Cruise's character was too much of a Mav... Wait.
zombiebatman
Also the best volleyball player
BritishGingerLefty
Possibly unpopular opinion but I think he made a great Batman too! Not as good as Bale but still good.
Peachcappuccino
He was awesome?! Not sure why so much hate on Batman Forever, I liked it
BritishGingerLefty
Agreed. Interesting as the new Batman’s are my top films of all time. But Batman forever is more like what I expect from a comic adaptation.
BritishGingerLefty
It’s more light hearted and things are a little more surreal which I think adds a playful nature as the comics are like.
justThisPerson
I used to live him too. But he went to seed in a bad way @ 10 years ago.
secretdpp
Dude got Throat Cancer, people get fucked up when their body literally tries murdering them.
justThisPerson
I understand that. I am talking about how he let himself get gross way before that.
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
You mean when he got cancer? What the hell?
justThisPerson
He got cancer 5 years ago, and of course I have compassion for him. But wayyy before that he let himself become just gross-looking.
BabeAfett
Probably because he advocates prayer and god over medical treatment and science to treat said cancer.
Lassannn
Damn shame what happened to him.
Volitioner
One of the reviews headline at the time was "Jim Morrison plays a good Val Kilmer".
gotchasucka
Also, the other members of the Doors were stoned AF.
Iamtoofuckinghighforthisshit
And?
justarocknroller
I had the honor to meet Robby a few years ago. No idea as to his sobriety, but he's a super sweet, soft-spoken guy
yeaaadude
And professional musicians who have worked prly hundreds of shows. That’s like saying house isn’t a good doc because he likes pain pills
brassknucklenerd
Out here in the perimeter there are no stars. Out here we is stoned immaculate.

When I was back there in seminary school...
BluePeaSoup
That was Val Kilmer’s best role.

He was great in Wonderland too.

That's a grimey movie, in a good way.

He can be awesome in so many movies, but he plays batman in a bad movie once? Its all some people remember
nonCanadianGoose
He also did all the Vocals in “Top Secret” too

Choose one, ‘also’ or ‘too’, then just let it do it’s job.

They tricked.him into learning the guitar then never had him play.

Not gonna lie I only watched that movie as a kid for Meg Ryan's boobs.
LosPer
Disappointing if you ask me...
sistermoon
I got to be an extra in the movie and met Billy Idol on set. He was really a nice guy.

We all did. ?

Was this movie mentioned in MacFarlane’s “We Saw Your Boobs”.

"Mariska Hargitay, Val Kilmer"

"Mariska Hargitay, Your Holiness"
PCCookies12
I call bullshit. Pics or it didn't happen. (also audio)
RedTailedHawk
I agree. I listened to the soundtrack and can tell instantly when it was Kilmer's vocals.
mckdeadshot
My understanding is the officially released soundtrack does not include any of Kilmers vocals, those were only in the movie.
RedTailedHawk
It's been about 25 years + since i've heard either, but which ever has his vocals, they stick out like a sore thumb.
RedTailedHawk
Plus at the time of relase, the band was going on about how amazing the movie was and how spooky it was the Val sounded like jim...
RedTailedHawk
...but today they say how awful the movie was, so it's possible their comments about Kilmer were also exaggerated.
dirtmarker
Here is one https://youtu.be/y4sALru9IJk

YOU ARE A GREAT SWORDSMAN.
LadyArwen
He did a good job, but his performance has been outrageously overhyped by these “fact” sites. The band didn’t agree w/ the portrayal of Jim.
ministryofpeace
Is that his performance or the script and directing?
xEFGx
The script. Once the witch comes into play the whole movie spirales downwards
LadyArwen
(Not to say vocally or Val as an actor, but the script not capturing his true spirit & painting him as satan worshipping and pretentious)
justarocknroller
I loved Ray's take. "Nobody laughed in that movie. We were potheads, man, we laughed all the time!"
yourbassist
Given how Doors fans are about him, the pretentious thing seems like it would be a given.
YesSorryIAmBack
Being a huge Doors fan but having read his poems, dude was an idiot, but a genius singer. You don't have to go stupid because you're a fan
SexualChocolates
Had a genius IQ if I remember correctly from his biography. Poor decision making for sure
Bitten1x
He ate a shitload of Acid
justarocknroller
I wouldn't say he was an idiot, but he certainly thought he was smarter than he was
JackAwful
Val Kilmer did a lot of things perfect. Go watch "Heat" right now. Stop imguring, watch the movie. Then watch "Kiss kiss, bang bang"
DoctorDragonGnome

usernameblankityblank
I don't know. I didn't believe him when he yeeted the keys.
BluePeaSoup
Watch the documentary Lost Soul: the doomed journey of Richard Stanley’s Island of Dr Moreau.
jagerbacon
Top secret, real genius, the saint
Nandabun
What about Willow?!
Whiskeysoda1967
I think his best role was in Wonderland. A true story and a very disturbing film. He was brilliant.
KeyUnit
Then watch The Town. Kilmer isn’t in it but if you love Heat, you’ll love The Town.
Mailvirgo
Then Top Secret
RedWingedBlackbirds
Thunderheart for me
kkanne20
Two masterpieces, to be sure

Great movie!

Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang is seriously one of my favorite movies. He was so goddamn good in that.

For me, the quintessential Val Kilmer role will always be "Real Genius".

I think we’re the only 2 ppl that didn’t like Heat...

It's been a long time since I tried, I don't really remember anything about it. Maybe now I'm older I'll have more luck with it.

actually the original TV movie by Mann on which Heat is based is not bad too - L.A. Takedown.
