Another legendary actor gone!

Good actor, Val Kilmer was. Salton Sea is an underrated classic.

Pity the Doors movie obfuscated the absurdity of Jim Morrison's father helping start the Vietnam War by directing the Gulf of Tonkin incident, while Jim was helping lead the counterculture revolution by being rock music's biggest bad boy. Both anti-heroes but extreme polar opposites; the chances of this organically occurring are about 1/1,000,000,000. But film director Oliver Stone likes being alive, so...

"I'll be your huckleberry," from Tombstone is my favorite of all his lines. I saw that movie as a teenager and even then was suspicious of their depiction of the shootout at the ok corral being about enforcing a local gun control ordinance
..in the wild west. It made me go to the library, because this was before the internet and we only had stone tablets. Turns out the real reason for the conflict was "they was talking sh1t."

He had throat cancer but died of pneumonia? Dropping like flies, I wonder why.
