Over the last year I've watched more than my share of TV, and I've found that there are always a couple of movies that I stop for a while if I happen to come across them in my channel surfing. I don't think there is one movie that stops me more than Tombstone (1993). Favorite scene? Come on, "I'm your huckleberry..."

No doubt the best written, and best acted role of Val Kilmer's career.
Big screen actors have long careers just hoping, and never get to work on such great characters, and with such understated lines.

"I'm afraid the strain was more than he could bear."
 
Lethal Weapon, Gladiator, Hot Shots Part Deux, Airplane, anything by Monty Python, any Godzilla movie, Apollo 13, A Time To Kill, A Few Good Men
 
All the President's Men; Die Hard; A Few Good Men, yes; A Murder of Crows; Halloween; The Firm..... and I know I'm forgetting a ton.

'I don't know, should I hate him darling?' It is a great role.

Val Kilmer was outstanding as Doc Holliday!

My wife gets very breathy and uses up all the oxygen in the room whenever Sean Connery as Captain Ramius comes on.
Of course, it also winds up a plus for me as he clearly puts her in a good mood.
Thanks Sean, just please don't show up at our door or she'll kick my dumb ass to the curb. 😂
(Yes, I know he recently passed away)

Sucker Punch is super good. From music to visuals and special effects to a very intense story line. (many I know missed the story line or simply did not appreciate the genius invoked)
