I just saw Point Break for about the 4 zillionth time a couple weeks ago... he made some iconic flicks... Ghost, Red Dawn, Roadhouse... always liked his work...

No way! It seemed for a while there like he was ready to do battle to the end no matter what. He did put up a valiant effort though.

Oh man, that SNL Chippendale's skit with Patrick and Chris Farley was the quintessential comedy bit of Chris Farley. Always rated as my #1 favorite comedy skit.Originally Posted by PointnClick
Swayze was such a great sport doing that bit with Farley. Great to see that clip again. Thanks for posting it!

Is that one kickin' 80's mullet on Swayze, or what...?

Red Dawn will alway be a film I enjoy watching. As much as I hope & pray this scenario never comes to pass, I enjoy this film each time I watch it. This film keeps me wondering about the future of our great nation.
RIP, Patrick Swayze!

Truly a great person and actor. He will be missed. I think I will watch Red Dawn right now in his honor.

Don't forget Uncommon Valor, with Gene Hackman. It came out the year before Red Dawn.
"I've run across shooting after shooting where the defender shot a violent aggressor with a .380 and did little to immediately stop his depredations. A good hollow point load in 9mm or .38 Special will, historically, end lethal assaults more quickly."

I didn't remember him in that movie, now I'll have to go watch it again.
He certainly was a fighter. I have lost family members to panc cancer and usually by the time you find out it is WAY too late to do anything other than get your affairs in order.
