Happy Birthday, Bill Paxton

                                Today, we honor a great human who would've turned 63 today. We have a lot to thank Bill Paxton for – not only for his wonderfully artistic soul and lovably memorable film roles and projects, but also for serving as our inspiration. While we're a broader film podcast, we wouldn't have started it without our love for the guy and his work. Whether you knew him or didn't, worked with him or simply admired his performances, consider supporting heart research so that we might live in a world where we don't lose such fantastic people to these conditions and diseases. Donate to the American Heart Association via their website , or through our current fundraiser on our Facebook page . If you donate directly to AHA, be sure to let us know you did, and we'll keep an eye on the Facebook page, as we will be selecting three individuals who donated to win some cool prizes, including a limited edition  Near Dark  print designed by Todd Spe
