"And I though Gary Oldman made another juicy bad guy role tres cool."
Hmm. I think Gary Oldman has joined Jeremy Irons in the category of talented actors whose agents are apparently bonobos, or some form of ground sloths.

Yes, Gary Oldman has made some strange career choices to be sure. He is a much better actor than Lost In Space would allow for.

If you think that's something, check him out in "State of Grace". He's BRILLIANT in that movie.

Demented Forrest Gump? That would amount to the Pakleds... As I recall, he was very intelligent, like all of his bad guys.
Has anyone seen Gary's first big role, "Sid and Nancy" (1986)? He played the british punk-singer Sid Vicious, from Sex Pistols. Must've been good, haven't seen it though.

No and no. Michael Wincott with the razor-voice was in "The Crow" and british Sam Neill was in "Event Horizon". At least, those are the people I'd think you confused him with... Funny though, Michael Wincott and Gary Oldman both starred in "Basquiat"...

"Sid & Nancy" was alright in a "I'm making a deeply cool movie, and if you don't like it or have a problem with it, then you're far too unhip to be watching it in the first place, so there!" kind of way. The amusing thing is that when he went on to play American characters in movies like "Criminal Law" and "State of Grace," some idiots in Hollywood were so fooled they used to congratulate him on the great British accent he did in "S&N."

I wasn't thinking of Sam Neill, I thought there was another guy, with black hair who got killed. I could be mixing Event Horizon up with one of the Alien movies.

Well Michael Wincott was the blackhaired captain who got an alien tongue through his stomach, in Alien IV (Resurrection), yes. And he was the longhaired bad guy in "The Crow" too, but he's hardly Gary Oldman.
