Wow. People get old. Who'da thunk?

I'd bet Robert Downey Jr. wouldn't give him the time of day, now.

IgG4: People love to biatch about Kilmer, but you know what? He works all the time. Look at his IMDB page, the guy has been in 6-7 projects a year forever. That's Micheal Caine busy.


Most of it is crap.

And I watch it all. I can't explain why I like this guy.

I don't care how bad he looks, women still age worse than men.

It's a shame - he's a good actor and he's just not going to get good rolls looking like that as well as will probably have health problems that will limit his range.

He's not aging well almost certainly due to unhealthy eating habbits. I'm guessing too much bacon and scotch.

I think the key is in the first sentence of TFA: "Who was it that said men age better than women?"

Probably just payback for the hundreds of articles lamenting any given starlet's departure from her prime (i.e., teen) years. Not saying all articles about female stars are like that, but too many are.

The reason people harp on him all the time is because that he used to look 10,000x better and get more poon than they ever would have in their lives.

Now that he's Mr. Average Joe weight, they are getting their revenge by stomping all over him.

Obligatory link to Chuck Klosterman's article about Kilmer: "Crazy Things Seem Normal, Normal Things Seem Crazy." A taste:

The conversation evolves into a meditation on the emotional toll that acting takes on the artist. I ask him about the "toll" that he felt while making the 1993 western Tombstone. He starts talking about things that happened to Doc Holliday. I say, "No, no, you must have misunderstood me. I want to know about the toll it took on you." He says, "I know, I'm talking about those feelings." And this is the conversation that follows:

Me: You mean you think you literally had the same experience as Doc Holliday?

Kilmer: Oh, sure. It's not like I believed that I shot somebody, but I absolutely know what it feels like to pull the trigger and take someone's life.

You understand how it feels to shoot someone as much as a person who has actually committed a murder?

I understand it more. It's an actor's job. A guy who's lived through the horror of Vietnam has not spent his life preparing his mind for it. He's some punk. Most guys were borderline criminal or poor, and that's why they got sent to Vietnam. It was all the poor, wretched kids who got beat up by their dads, guys who didn't get on the football team, couldn't finagle a scholarship. They didn't have the emotional equipment to handle that experience. But this is what an actor trains to do. I can more effectively represent that kid in Vietnam than a guy who was there.

I don't question that you can more effectively represent it, but that's not the same thing. If you were talking to someone who's in prison for murder and the guy said, "Man, it really farks you up to kill another person," do you think you could reasonably say, "I completely know what you're talking about"?

Oh yeah. I'd know what he's talking about.

Let's say someone made a movie about you--Val Kilmer--and they cast Jude Law in the lead role. By your logic, wouldn't this mean that Jude Law--if he succeeded in the role--would therefore understand what it means to be Val Kilmer more than you do?

No, because I'm an actor. The people in those other circumstances don't have the self-knowledge.

Well, what if it were a movie about your young life, before you became an actor?

I guess I'd have to say yes.

The Kelly Lebrock pics made me sad in the pants.



Dayum girl! It's not too late. Call up Jenny Craig or farking Weight Watcher's stat!

Not turning down anything, no matter how crappy the script or production, might not be that great of a compliment for an actor.

Especially if it's because of the free catering on set.

The problem with women and aging is the ass.

Age 20: Tight ass, you can bounce a quarter off it
Age 30: It's still the same ass, but it is not as pert as it used to be, why is it not pert?
Age 40: Holy crap I have ass flaps, why did nobody warn me about the ass flaps?
Age 50: My ass is the size of a trailer park

Look at Tom Sizemores

you are a puppet: Look at Tom Sizemores

How many are there?

Yeah, he could drop some weight, but he's in his 50's, still getting lots of work, and is entitled to The Gut. I don't stay up nights worrying about how fat some guy named "Val" is.

/but I apparently reply to threads about it

Quote from the same website's last Val Kilmer is fatter at 50 than he was in his 20s article: "Twenty years ago, Val Kilmer starred in The Doors; now, he can barely pass through them."

She gained back the weight again? I remember seeing her on Celebrity Fit club and she lost a lot of weight.

Oh hrmmm... Apparently the pic in the black dress was taken in 2008. Here's one from September.

Look as good at his age you will not.

Forget Top Gun, he was hilarious in Top Secret.

BroVinny: you are a puppet: Look at Tom Sizemores

A LOT

Looks like Seth Macfarlane tried to draw Nick Nolte.

This is why I would never want to be famous. It must be hell having to deal with people who constantly want to slice open your life and then broadcast it to the entire world...if they still even give a flying fark.

Actually he looks better in the pic in the artical then he did the last time I saw him. They use a pic from when he was a teen/twenty something (Real Genius) to compare him to now? To imply men don't age as well as woman? Maybe the should try Kirstie Alley 5 years after Cheers, or Melanie Griffith, Kathleen Turner, Brittney Spears or even Liz Taylor who went from hot to not in less then a decade? Brando got old and fat too but it least it took more then a couple of years.

/No I'm not Kilmers mom.

Mr. Pokeylope: BroVinny: you are a puppet: Look at Tom Sizemores

A LOT

Look at Danny Trejos for that matter. Look at it this way: Deniro, Kilmer Sizemore and Trejo played themselves in Heat. They do what they do best, they take scores (every shiatty role they get offered). Cinemagoers everywhere need to do what they do best, try to stop guys like them.

Meh. He's aged. I actually don't think he looks that bad. Nice lips.

Over Thanksgiving weekend one of the movie channels played "Weird Science." I watched most of it, and it made me realize a couple things:

1) "Comedies" from the 1980's really weren't funny
2) Kelly Lebrock used to have DAT ASS

/The second thing is why I kept watching
//Oh, and the scene where the chick playing the piano gets naked before being thrown out of the chimney -- forgot about that

Psycoholic_Slag: I wat

Wasn't he in a western movie where he played a dead guy lying in the dirt through the whole movie? No speaking parts, just dead in the dirt?

Snarfangel: Forget Top Gun, he was hilarious in Top Secret.

And he sang in that movie too. I like it when I show Top Secret to my younger friends that have never seen it. They laugh their asses off. They are also amazed how young he was in that movie too.

I remember on e time when I was living in Los Angeles I was driving down Highland Ave. into Hollywood. There, plastered on the side of the Hollywood and Highland Build was a HUGE poster for "The Ten Commandments: The Musical" and I said to myself "Wow, Beau Bridges looks awful!" my friend at the time said "That's Val Kilmer."

She has that "just had sex" look in that picture. I'm not usually a fan of older women, but WANT.

My God, it's as if he is aging like other human beings.

Snarfangel: Forget Top Gun, he was hilarious in Top Secret.

Absolutely. I actually like "Top Secret!" more than "Airplane!", because it had the greatest tagline: "Movie? What movie?".

Look at Tom Sizemores

Sizemore doesn't have a choice. Between rehab costs and legal fees, he's got to take whatever comes along, and since he's alienated himself from several A-list directors, he's invariably got to take crap roles.

Seems to me like Kilmer looks at acting like a hobby now. He's been semi-retired for years, For him, it's just something to do a few months a year for a hundred grand.

Of course now, it looks like they're paying him in candy instead of money.

I do wonder if some of the weight gain might be attributed to him being a Christian Scientist and possibly having fatty liver from drinking in his youth.

TravisBickle62: I don't care how bad he looks, women still age worse than men.

True. A 40 year old guy who stays in shape and has decent social skills can easily land hot women 10-15 years younger than himself. The reverse is a lot less likely (despite what cougar porn sites depict).

I admire him. I think it's great a Hollywood star has finally said f*ck it and let themselves look like everyone else. We be laughing our collective asses off if he had plastic surgery and couldn't blink from the botox.
