BATTLE OF THE WALSHES: M. Emmett vs J.T., only one can reign supreme

yeah Straight Time is such an underrated gem, I should watch it again

Back when he was in everything, J.T. used to frighten me more than Jason, Freddy, etc combined.

That said, Emmett is too entertaining in too many good things for me not to vote for him.

Shame JT died so young, his portrayals of white collar and authoritarian scumbags seem increasingly like a prediction of what we’re going through now. He’d be great playing nasty patrician republicans.

He played Erlichman in Oliver Stone's Nixon.

No love for Matt Walsh, a shame

Walsh is sort of the prototypical '80s/'90s onscreen douchebag (would have loved to see his stage performance as Williamson in Glengarry Glen Ross), and was always good. he was probably actually the best thing about A Few Good Men, playing this quietly agonized military guy who has a small but crucial role in everything that occurs, and whose role was obv overlooked w/all the histrionics going on around him.

He was a great foil for Robin Williams's zaniness in Good Morning Vietnam. (As was Bruno Kirby, just in a different way.)

Shakey stole my line.
