Christopher Walken

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.

I was just about to say that! He does it when he fills in for Jim Rome on his radio show too.

I think I might have seen that some time ago. That guy's usually pretty funny.

Of course, this conversation reminds me of how much I usually enjoy Dennis Hopper, too.
 
Hmmm...
King of New York, anyone?
I spotted it gathering dust in the DVD section at HMV, read the back, saw Christopher Walken's name, and bought it.
Pretty darn good, if you ask me. Of course, you didn't...

My problem is more that I hadn't heard of him until about 3 or so years ago, so I've had to try and catch up by buying DVDs, catching his films on TV, or renting/borrowing them.
 
I cant believe no one brings up At Close Range.
That was the first movie I ever saw Walken in, and he was fantastic in it. He is the father of Sean Penn in the movie. Plays a very creepy character, I know, quite a stretch for Walken. :D
I havent seen it in years, but I really liked that movie, check it out if you get a chance.
