IslandBillsFan Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Hi All, Haven't seen it on here yet but Powers Boothe passed away a couple days ago. Seems to have had a pretty solid career despite not every being a major star. If you are unaware of who he was check out his IMDB page. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000959/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t5 I loved him as Curly Bill in Tombstone. I would quote one of his best lines from that movie but it probably isn't appropriate given the situation. R.I.P.
gomper Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Jesus. Remember him as Jim Jones? Super creepy performance. Nail that.
DC Tom Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Never has a meme simultaneously been so appropriate and so inappropriate...
dhg Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Really liked the Philip Marlowe series on HBO that he starred in
Azalin Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Jesus. Remember him as Jim Jones? Super creepy performance. Nail that. Absolutely. I believe he won an emmy for that role. I always liked him in the original version of Red Dawn, too. When you take a look at his body of work, he was more prolific than you realize. 68 is too young to go in your sleep of natural causes, and I will miss him. RIP
CowgirlsFan Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Sad. Another one gone. Prayers to his family and friends.
IslandBillsFan Posted May 18, 2017 Author Posted May 18, 2017 DC Tom and KoKo78 you guys nailed it. I knew the board wouldn't let me down.
shrader Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Powers and Paxton gone in the same year-way too young And they both had fairly big villain roles in Agents of Shield recently. Kind of an odd coincidence there.
Mark Vader Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 And they both had fairly big villain roles in Agents of Shield recently. Kind of an odd coincidence there. Yes, quite the coincidence. They also were in the History channel mini-series "Hatfields & McCoys". RIP
Bullpen Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Fine, I'll do it... Came here for this, was not disappointed. I use that line all the time. RIP though, he played some interesting characters. Wanna say he was on Agents of Shield briefly?

#34fan Posted May 19, 2017 Posted May 19, 2017 Ugh! -All the greats are dropping like flies.... RIP to Bill Paxton, and Powers Boothe..
