I thought this might be another internet celebrity death hoax, so I just Googled it.  :o How unexpected! I watched Twister a lot as a kid.  :'( R.I.P. Bill Paxton.

He played in a lot of great movies, but I remember him most as "Chet" in Weird Science.

So sad! I read on Facebook that he is the ONLY PERSON IN HISTORY to be killed on screen by an Alien, Predator and a Terminator.

He will truly be missed. :(

He has a new series that was just starting this week. I liked watching him a lot.  Thoughts and prayers are with his family.  R.I.P.

I was shocked by this passing. I just saw it today. I can automatically picture him in Titanic and Twister. If I only knew him from movies and I feel like this, I can only imagine how his family and friends feel who knew him.  He was is gone too soon.
