This is too bad, I always liked him alot more than his brother.

Karlifornia · 01-25-2006, 02:08 AM

Damnit. 40 years old is much too young.

The last thing I knew him from was his voice acting as Officer Pulaski in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. His performance in Reservoir Dogs was great, too.

Geez, I'm starting to lose this idea that I'm invincible

Life is such..

Lathum · 01-25-2006, 02:10 AM

Maybe being large had something to do with it. Holy crap!

One of my top 10 dramas is "At Close Range". What a great flick. I can cry almost everytime when I see Sean testifying against his dad (Walken).

Raiders Army · 01-25-2006, 05:14 AM

I liked him in Resevoir Dogs and Best of the Best.

cthomer5000 · 01-25-2006, 05:53 AM

That's a shame. Damn.

Ksyrup · 01-25-2006, 07:03 AM

I don't think I've seen (or recognized) him since Footloose and Wild Life. Damn, he got big.

Who will Kevin Bacon teach how to dance now?

RIP, Chris.

Wow.....40 is too young to pass

Solecismic · 01-25-2006, 10:59 AM

Aside from Lea Thompson and the obvious, he made All the Right Moves a good film. This in spite of Tom Cruise and his usual wooden performance. He was very underrated as an actor - much better than his brother.

Agreed.

PackerFanatic · 01-25-2006, 11:09 AM

Yeah I heard about this...quite sad.

Ramzavail · 01-25-2006, 11:36 AM

I even liked the small part he played in Rush Hour.

Then transitioned to the greatest "explosion then dance" scene in the history of film by Chris Tucker.

Wolfpack · 01-25-2006, 12:19 PM

"You destroyed a city block!"

"That block was already messed up!"

ShovelMonkey · 01-25-2006, 12:44 PM

I see that his last film is "Darwin Awards." That should be interesting...

Incidentally, Rush Hour is my absolute favorite movie of all time. Could watch it a million times.

"What is this...cigaweed?"

korme · 01-25-2006, 02:18 PM

LIked him in his small role in Starsky and Hutch.

Grammaticus · 01-25-2006, 04:07 PM

Definately Reservoir Dogs is his best flick, he was a really good actor. And ditto on the better than his brother line.

Sublime 2 · 01-25-2006, 04:50 PM

Oddly enough I watched Best of the Best on On Demand last night and didn't realize until he popped up that he was even in it. Not sure why I decided to watch Best of the Best either.
