Favorite Patrick Swayze movie? May he RIP.

Patrick Swayze lost his fight against the C-monster yesterday.

Man, it's sucking more and more as the folks we lose are closer and closer to our own age...

Radio show this morning was having a call-in memorial for everyone to call in their favorite movie.

So, in memory - post your top 2 favorite Swayze movies. Or try to cut it to 2 -- he had several good ones, even if us guys think Ghost was pretty chicky-sappy.

1: Roadhouse. (Sappy guy testosterone)
2: Steel Dawn. (It's Post-Apoc - what can i say?)



Have at it.

1. Dirty Dancing (What can I say? He was HAWT in that movie)
2. Roadhouse (Considering I am a chick, I'm not a big fan of chick flicks.)

I love em as an actor. Very sad that he is gone.

[Uska]

never was a fan but maybe Next of kin was the one I liked best. to bad he died so young

1. Grandview, USA (It stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Patrick Swayze, C. Thomas Howell, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Carole Cook, Ramon Bieri, John Cusack, Joan Cusack, M. Emmet Walsh, Michael Winslow, and Troy Donahue.) With that cast, you would think it was set to be a blockbuster. But alas, it never quite made the big time. Oh, and it was filmed in my hometown when I was a teenager.

I have a "I met Patrick Swayze" story to go with it. I was playing in the local park after a movie on a Friday night. There was this fire engine replica there that had a moving steering wheel. I must say it is not wise to sit on the top of a steering wheel and try to put both feet on the bottom of it... So, a group of friends carried me to the local Pizza place with my new shiny cut on my head from hitting a corner of the cab when the wheel turn and I fell into it... But, the good part of the story was that Patrick Swayze was there and consoled me and gave me an autograph after he successfully stifled his laughter at the story (great actor I tell ya).

He will be missed.

Thanks again for making a 14 year old idiot feel better.

Dirty Dancing - seems to hook us everytime we come across it
Red Dawn - for the underlying themes
Roadhouse - Uber Bouncer kicks butt on the dirtbags

I'm cheating here, because it isn't a movie, . . . but:

1) Saturday Night Live dance rehearsal skit with Chris Farley (one of the most memorable SNL skits of all time)
2) Roadhouse (saw it recently--very cheesy--but in a fun way)

) Saturday Night Live dance rehearsal skit with Chris Farley (one of the most memorable SNL skits of all time))

Amen!

The bit he did with Hanz and Franz that same episode of SNL was classic as well.

[Kalari]

Ghost definitely and Dirty Dancing still cant believe hes gone.
