I think Real Genius is his best instance in comedy and that the Salton Sea and Spartan are his best acting roles overall.

+1 But obviously the stories about him being such a tool are so widespread I'm pretty sure I would have no desire to hang with him. Especially since there are guys 1000 times bigger and more popular and they aren't nearly as big a dick as he is.

This thread reminds me that I need to actually watch Spartan and the Salton Sea.

I like him in The Ghost And The Darkness.

When the hell is it coming out on blu-ray.

Wonderland was a gem as well.

Fat Val Kilmer stars in The Chaz Bono Story, next on Lifetime.

Val got older and didn't take care of himself physically. Hence, his career has been in a rut for the last decade or so.

If you're going to have longevity as an actor, you need to take care of yourself. Eat better and exercise, especially when your approaching middle age.

Hopefully he's already passed the nadir of his career (voicing KITT on the recent Knight Rider). Here's hoping he breaks on through to the other side.

Well we all thought Val was eating too much, but little did we realize it was too much pussy.

You're assuming he got it that way. He could have gotten it from making out with Douglas.

From Val Kilmer official FB
I love Michael Douglas but he is misinformed. The last time I spoke to him was almost two years ago, when I asked him for a referral for a specialist to get a diagnosis for a lump in my throat, which prevented me from continuing a tour of my play CITIZEN TWAIN. I ended up using a team at UCLA and have no cancer whatsoever. I still have a swollen tongue and am rehabbing steadily. I've made 3 films in the last year, one of which I directed and am presenting as a personal appearance introducing it and then answering questions after. Come see me live and happy and in person in Westwood next week if you think I'm fibbing!! I've done 3 Q and A's so far and am having the best time. ...
Spoiler:
The film is called CINEMA TWAIN and is a recording of my play. I'm right proud of the performance and the writing, altho editing Mark Twain is pure joy! What a lover of life and humanity.
Naturally I'm also drawn to him because of his unlikely devotion to Mrs. Eddy, the genius discoverer and founder of my faith,
Christian Science.
Some fans have mistakenly thought my silence about my personal issues meant that somehow I wasn't being responsible to my health, because of my reliance on prayer and Love. Nothing could be further from the truth. Altho I am very grateful for all the support from around the world, when people found out I had a physical challenge. I hope this puts to rest any further concerns about my health by publications that have no respect for the truth. Whatever led Michael Douglas to speculate about my health, he's a loving and devoted friend to a privileged group of talent people around the world, and I'm sure he meant no harm.
Being healthy and having the respect of my peers and love from my family, friends, peers and fans is a DAILY source of inspiration, for which I am so grateful, you have no idea. I work VERY hard at my craft, and being appreciated since I was a little boy for being able to give this gift, has literally made my life. Thank you all. And I've only just begun, now that I'm finally telling stories that I've written and produced the way my vision intends them. God bless you all and I hope to see you in Westwood on the 10th and 17th at the Landmark. Yahoo! "Apparently there is nothing that cannot happen today..." Mark Twain

There was an interesting article that THR did about Hollywood Legacy families. "The Kilmers" were apart of it. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/fe...ebook_20171220

There is a video of how Val sounds now. Unfortunate.

Effective dubbing kept Jack Hawkins in movies for a good seven years after he lost his voice permanently back in the 60's. Maybe Kilmer could do the same. Mind you, that might be costly on some of the low-budget shows he makes these days. At least he's still working, so there's that.

It's hard to believe he's never won an Oscar.
