You don't want to do that. Trust me.
Well I can see why I don't know of Mr. Walken's work - I obviously don't watch nearly enough movies
Out of all the movies listed in this thread, I've only seen one or two.
Most everyone has seen the James Bond movies. If you have, Christopher Walken was the leading bad guy in "View To A Kill".
"I think he is attempting re-entry" - Moonraker
"I put my pants on one leg at a time, except when my pants are on, I make gold records" - Christopher Walken

Does anyone remember that skit where Christopher Walken is being surveyed for the census by Tim Meadows? That was funny stuff. Wish I had that on video. Also the one where he was in the audience of a Jenny Jones type talk show was pretty funny.

Hold the phone Myrtle! I thought I was the only other person in the world that has seen that movie. Kate Capshaw! Owww! Anyways...I don't remember him in that...I thought a younger guy turned into the snake creature. Hmmm...gotta go rent now.
am I the only one who thought Biloxi Blues was pretty much a lame movie? Not one of Christopher Walken's or Matthew Broderick's better films.
Did I start a cowbell frenzy with my SNL thread? 
Anyways, I just wanted to chime in, hijack and say that the Dead Zone is a great book.

Matthew Bryson said:(inspired by the actors / actresses thread)
Okay, I hear reference to this Christopher Walken all the time, but mostly on this board. (a lot of very annoying references to a cowbell and a fever) ...now, admittedly, I don't know that many actors by name, but I have no idea who this Christopher Walken is. Should I know him from somewhere? What TV shows / Movies has he been in? I want to be hip and in the know too!
The Stepford Wives
best movie evar.

"I have just the horse for you, Mr Smythe..."
a poor Bond film, but walken seemed to be enjoying himself...
as for Biloxi Blues- cheesiest closing line (from Matthew Broderick) ever?
"you know what, I love all those guys!"
bleh, syrup-laden nostalgia.
How about the SNL skit where he interviews Chris Parnell for a job at a hospital, only Parnell is a centaur, and all Chris Walken wants to do is ask him centaur questions? Classic.
I'm a big Christopher Walken fan. I dated a girl who was terrified of him (yes, she was a grown adult) because of his voice.

That is one of my favorite movies ever. The scene with him and Dennis Hopper in the trailer is awesome.
Eyescream, exactly.
Did you ever see Jay Mohr do a spot-on imitation of Walken in a comedy skit, involving that same scene? It's gotta be out there somewhere.
He does the absolute best ever imitation of Walken.
