Here's the question: Who was the better Doc Holliday?

[Fletcher Knives]

Val Kilmer or Dennis Quaid? Keep in mind, I'm not asking which was the better wovie between Tombstone and Wyatt Earp, just which actor did a better Doc. If you haven't seen both movies, don't answer.

I preferred Kilmers character better (entertainment value) however I believe Quaid probably played a more realistic role.

Dave

 

[chainring]

Val Kilmer for the win. I've been using "I'm you're huckleberry!" ever since!

 

[Fiddleback]

Quaid. No really Val's fault though. The movie he was in was more glitz.

 

[xxl1982]

Val Kilmer

 

[MajorD]

Quaid. No really Val's fault though. The movie he was in was more glitz.

That was my point exactly. Two entirely different styles of the same movie. BOTH great charcters. :thumbup:

 

[Doc Holiday]

That would be me of course

 

[OldPhysics]

Kilmer. An odd fellow ... but a riveting portrayal.

Of course, the role is fantastic.

 

[Kiah]

Neither were accurate, but Kilmer's portrayal was one of the best characters ever.

 

[Shotgun]

Quaid. No really Val's fault though. The movie he was in was more glitz.

And the movie Quaid was in was a snore fest. Kilmer. One of his best roles IMO.

 

[OldPhysics]

Neither were accurate, but Kilmer's portrayal was one of the best characters ever.

Lord, of course not!

Wouldn't have been very entertaining if they had been.

 

[Raining]

Val Kilmer was way more interesting to watch.

 

[fierostetz]

Kilmer - this question was stillborn there's no comparison!

 

[RedbeAR15]

Kilmer nailed it - IMO

Much more suave and debonnaire!

 

[Rockywolf]

Kilmer. One of my favorite movies!

 

[m. wohlwend]

I vote Val...

 

[rayban]

As with most art forms, I don't know what the heck I'm talking about, I just know what I like......and I liked Val's performance mo betta.:thumbup:

 

[GRIM 62]

Val Kilmer,hands down.I watch that movie every time they show it again(every couple years),easily one of my favs.

 

[Chinpo]

Kirk Douglas

I liked Kilmer, he had some great lines and "panache".

 

[grunt soldier]
