      Favorite role... Chris Knight in Real Genius.

      I watched that movie a lot as a kid. My dad had an extensive VHS collection of everything we dubbed when we rented.

      RIP

      Tombstone was a great movie also!

          I second that. Real Genius is a favorite for sure. My son had a roommate that we hardly ever saw. Every once in a while we'd see him walk by a doorway, but he didn't say anything. The kids didn't understand why I called him Laslo.

          The movie Top Secret is worth a chuckle. Especially the library scene that was filmed backwards.

          Also, his portrayal of Jim Morrison I thought was great!

            Top secret was silly fun.


            Also gonna have to rewatch Willow. It’s been a while.


            I’ve liked everything I’ve seen him in.

              Forgot about Top Secret! Very Mel Brooks kind of humor.
