So many of us grew up watching Kilmer's work. I was aware he had been dealing with health issues for quite some time, but still... He had a good run and career, lot of memorable work, now no longer needs to deal with health problems anymore and at peace, rest well Val Kilmer.

This one sucks. He was one of my faves growing up, especially in Willow.

Damn. I thought he was going to be OK... beyond the obvious physical condition he was in after his cancer treatments.

I watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang recently, and it has one of my now-favorite quotes between Val Kilmer and Robert Downey, Jr.

Perry: "Look up 'idiot' in the dictionary; you know what you'll find?"
Harry: "... A picture of me?"
Perry: "No! The definition of the word 'idiot', which you F*CKING are!"

I guess it's true, all the 80's icons will be dying one after the other. But he was only 65 so it's so sad he died relatively young.

Man, nobody should be dying in their 60's.

He may be great in Top Gun,Tombstone, and Heat, but he is my favorite Batman.:sob: I understand his throat cancer made him quite vulenerable to lung diseases and infectuon so pneumonia is not too surprising. I just wishwd for him to do one ladt thing creatively and got a decent retirement. I suppose Val documentary and Top Gun: Maverick were meant to be just that,but you never know. Truly an underrated creative force. Thank you, Mr. Kilmer!

I was pleasantly surprised by it. I got curious one day and figured I'd give it a try because I read Downey was in it. Incredible chemistry between him and Kilmer. I totally recommend.
