Need to know which Bill Paxton movie got the best reviews from critics and audiences and which ones got the worst reviews? Well you have come to the right place….because we have all of that information.
So this morning….we had just gotten home from our weekly grocery shopping trip….and as we were putting the final groceries away…WoC (Wife of Cogerson) says….”Bill Paxton?” as she was staring down at her i-Phone. Well…since WoC does not generally say actors name out loud for no reason…I responded…”He didn’t die did he?” Sadly that is what had happened. My kids all said….”You should do an UMR page on Bill Paxton”.
At first I was like….”nah….I also feel like an ambulance chasing lawyer when I do a page AFTER a movie star has passed”. But then all of the Paxton roles started flying through my brain…..the mean older brother in Weird Science, the punk Arnold takes a jacket from in The Terminator, his astronaut in Apollo 13, the crazed garbage collector in The Dark Backward, his marine in Aliens, his Earp brother in Tombstone, his fake secret agent in True Lies, his tornado chasing scientist in Twister, his…..I think you get the point. So in the end…we decided to do a Bill Paxton tribute page. Rest in Peace Mr. Paxton. February 25th 2017.

Rest In Peace. Sad sad sad day. What a shock. Heck I just watched him on his new show a couple of weeks ago. Stripes? He was in that? I will have to keep an eye open for him the next time I watch that one? Nice tribute.
Hey SteinHOF…yeah I debated on including Stripes or not…but in the end…I went ahead and included it. I figured it gives people something extra to look for when they watch or re-watch Stripes. A truly sad and shocking day. RIP Bill Paxton.
Perhaps you should consider it a tribute more than ambulance chasing.
Hey Kelly…you might be right…..but it seems really sad to do these pages after they pass. Thanks for not thinking of me as a ambulance chaser. RIP Mr. Paxton.
Heartbroken hearing of his passing. One of the best of Texas has passed. Also thought he should have directed more movies. Rest in peace. Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.
Hey Gerald…yep he made Texas proud for sure. A good movie and television career. I agree he should have directed more movies. I thought he did an awesome job with The Greatest Game Ever Played. I want to see Frality….thanks for the visit and thoughts to his family.
So incredibly saddened by this news. He left behind so many great movie characters RIP. Thoughts and prayers to his family.
Hey Kelly….so many great movies indeed. The more I thought about his career the more impressed I got. Thanks for checking out our Paxton tribute.
Shocking news. In the last week I have watched two of his movies. Nightcrawler and Frality. One of the good ones leaves us.
Hey Peter….I agree 100%…very shocking and very sad. I want to see Frality(one of the movies he directed)…Nightcrawler is creepy good. RIP Mr. Paxton
