Fuck. RIP Mr. Kilmer. What a fine human being. From Willow to Top Gun to Batman to so many from our childhoods. Looks like be watching a Val film this evening.
I hope he gets his sun god robes and thousands of women throw little pickles at him wherever he ends up.

RIP to one of the Batmen I grew up watching. I used to love going through my dad's DVD collection and watching batman forever.
There’s a peck here with an acorn pointed at me!

Damn. I was literally talking to my other half about him yesterday. I didn’t know his health was so poor, though I knew he had lots of problems. Really an actor I appreciated later. At first he was just another pretty boy face, but as it turns out, he could actually act too. Moreau, Ghost, Doors, and Tombstone are all great roles, but I kinda wish he’d done more comedy. It was awesome to see him not take himself too seriously, and he was good at it. I’m sad to see an actor like him lost so early, he really was in so many films I enjoyed.
Time to go rewatch Top Secret, Tombstone, and Top Gun.
