Just caught this from TMZ, by way of the CBC. Apparently, as a result of complications from surgery, Bill Paxton has died. Only 61. Damn that sucks. I always liked him, and he was in some of the biggest movies of all time.

And he got to utter the immortal words "I didn't think it was a whale's dick, Honey"

RIP, Bill

Even though he was the same age as Miguel Ferrer, 61, I could see Miguel was quite sick for some time.
Bill, on the other hand, looked extremely healthy and was going strong in his new series, Training Day.

This is shocking and terribly sad news. I always liked Paxton, from bits parts to leading man, his acting and voice always made the show better.

How could they cut the power, man? They're animals! That's it, man. Game over, man. Game over! What the fuck are we gonna do now? What are we gonna do?

Heart surgery, complication, post operative stroke. Tragic.

R.I.P., Bill. You will be missed.

I'm a big fan of Twister and Titanic so this is a big loss, always seemed like a great guy and a solid actor.

RIP

I've somehow never even heard about Near Dark, but from what little I've seen in clips on the net just now, I really should watch this. Thanks.
