Road house was ONE of his better movies. I also liked Dirty Dancing, and to some extent Ghost.

[Dutch Dog]

How could I forget...Next of Kin...Got the movie even.

[quack_a_tack]

Road House was pretty bad ace the other two I could do without, may he rest in piece.

Prayers sent

Red Dawn...WOLVERINES!!!!

Red Dawn...WOLVERINES!!!!

Oh yea forgot bout that.

[SWAG]

The one where he played the leader of some bank robbers was pretty cool. It and Roadhouse was his best.

Heck yeah...Point Break. Keanu Reaves, Red Hot Chili Peppers singer dude, Gary Busey

Rirst movie I remember him in was Grandview USA. I also liked Red Dawn, The Outsiders, Youngblood, and Roadhouse. He seemed like a cool dude.

Man if you were a teen in the eighties Red Dawn scared the lights out of you.

I watched his interview with Barbara Walters not long ago....very sad!

WOLVERINES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't think Red Dawn really scared me, but as a 12 or 13 yr old it shaped me. Maybe the reason I think buying ammo in bulk is a good idea.

Next of Kin, Point break, roadhouse, all good, but I can live without the chic flicks DD and Ghost


While I don' know much about his politcal view, I never heard him try to use his "stardom" to push an agenda like so many now.

All that hate gonna burn you up.... It keeps me warm.

Red Dawn was the best movie EVER (that doesn't have al pachino, chuck norris or eastwood in it). I watched it not long ago with my 11 year old tj. Ya got any ideal how hard it is to explain to a kid nowadays who the Russians are? And then the Cubans start speaking spanish... sheez, I had to stop and explain all that. Finally, after about an hour of the show being paused and I explained this stuff, I said, those are the bad guys! ha. I guess it great that our kids don't know about communism except from history books and old movies. travis
