Only ever heard of Bill Paxton from Weird Science. Otherwise, he means nothing to me, ah, Vienna.

At least this means for any movie released post-2017 you don't have to go "wait is that Bill Paxton or Bill Pullman?"

RIP to an actor who starred in some great films.  Apart from Aliens (and his cameo in The Terminator), Frailty was also a good film - also made a good performance as the sergeant in Edge of Tomorrow.  It is indeed, 'game over' for Bill

Nope. I've heard of the film of course..

In fact, I seem to have missed almost all of his career...but then I'm not a huge movie buff.

He got killed by an Alien, a Terminator and iirc a Predator too. Don't know how many actors can say that.

The name's familiar but I don't recognise him.  I'm not very good at faces though.

Well, that killed Richard Griffiths too, and if Richard Griffiths had been in Aliens it'd have been an entirely different film. :D

Ah dang and I going to do a waggish "I thought he was great in Independence Day" gag, but thinking about it that's what a lot of people would genuinely think...
