Dam. That's my buddy's uncle. I'll have to call him tomorrow.

 

[Willie B]

… holy shit… rest in peace, Mr. Kilmar… you did a pretty good job of playing Jim Morrison in the doors movie…

 

[TrollerDave]

Sad. Good actor in a lot of good movies.

 

[HNL2LHC]

Too young!!!

 

[OldSchoolBoats]

Sad. Good actor in a lot of good movies.

He was a great Batman in Batman Forever

Heat was a great movie too

 

[rivrrts429]

Damn, that sux. Dude was a legend in so many movies and didn’t appear to be in good health for a few years. He was great playing Jim Morrison in “The Doors” and obviously Top Gun. He was great as Doc Holliday in Tombstone.

Way too young

One of the greatest characters of all time.

Damn Way too young. Thanks for the memories. RIP

Oh no. RIP Val.

If you haven't seen it, watch his documentary movie called VAL. It was kind of sad, but very good.

Chris Knight..."Real Genius"
My second favorite to Doc in Tombstone.

I believe he'd been suffering from throat cancer for a few years. Sad to hear though.

 

[Ducksquasher]

RIP...God Bless.

 

[Dunerking]

RIP..Mr.Kilmer…Heat,Tombstone,Top Gun etc! As Doc in Tombstone with the all time line “I’m your Huckleberry “!

 

[TPC]

When his cancer was discovered he went Steve Jobs snake oil treatment.

Woke up at the last minute what a quack remedy it was and at the least was able to prolong his life a few more years with chemo.

 

[RitcheyRch]

So sad to read. Really enjoyed his movies and way too young to die.

 

[Romans9]

Nothing tops Doc Holliday in Tombstone.

There has never been a more perfect fit between actor and role.

One of the most underrated roles was his in “Felon”.

RIP

One of Val’s most unique movies was Salton City. If you’ve never watched it you might give it a try on YouTube or other platforms. It’s a bizarre flick but I liked it.

“After the murder of his beloved wife, a man (Val Kilmer) in search of redemption is set adrift in a world where nothing is as it seems. On his journey, he befriends slacker Jimmy The Finn (Peter Sarsgaard), becomes involved in rescuing his neighbor Colette (Deborah Kara Unger) from her own demons, and gets entangled in a web of deceit full of unexpected twists and turns.”

 

[69hondo]

Madmardigan in Willow was a good one as well.

 

[Chili Palmer]

He had a small supporting part in Kill The Irishman.

 

[River Dirt 2]

He was a great Batman in Batman Forever

Heat was a great movie too

Funny, if you read the articles he hated that movie/part

 

[RiverDave]

I was hoping it was one of those stupid April fools jokes.. RIP Val

This man was an actor in the finest sense of the word...thinking back on all the films he made listed here, and he seemed to inhabit the character he played, not just wore the clothes. I truly think he was robbed not getting the Oscar for Doc in Tombstone, he defined that role.

Read an article about him and Kurt Russel that after Tombstone wrapped they exchanged gifts. Kurt bought Val a plot in Boot Hill Cemetery and Val bought Kurt an acre overlooking Boot Hill.

I remember an interview with someone from the cast of Tombstone, can't remember who, this person was asked how it was to meet Val and he said he didn't know because Val was Doc Holiday all the time they were on set and off.

Top Secret was awesome...
Kilmer was hilarious.

TOMBSTONE Clip - "Huckleberry" (1993) Val Kilmer​

 

[rivermobster]

Such a shame.

Fuck cancer.

 

[DarkHorseRacing]

I didn't actually know Kilmer wasn't really acting in Top Gun Maverick when it came to his voice or him typing the conversations he was having.

Not sure if it was really that bad and they played it up or that was done so he could be in it.

Either way that part in that movie was a great way to wrap up his character.

 

[monkeyswrench]

In Tombstone they used to have a weekend they'd call the "Doc Holliday's". People would show up, dressed and acting like Doc. Both Kilmer and Quaid were known to show up, and wander the streets...incognito. That seemed pretty cool.

I think his voice was real in Top Gun Maverick. In his documentary movie he made called VAL, he can barely talk. I had read that they used a combination of voice clips from previously recorded movies and interviews, combined with his Son's voice to artificially create his voice for narrating the movie.

It is worth a watch if you haven't seen it. He started video recording almost his whole life starting at a young age.

 

[Chili Palmer]

Willow is a great watch.

 

[SoCalDave]

He played Jim very well..

One of the best action scenes! R I P
