[edit] Picture

Maybe we should get a picture of this guy since everyone knows the name but not what he looks like. In fact he's so forgettable that Family Guy had a joke with him regarding the confusion of him with Bill Pullman. I am among those many people who isn't sure which one is which. In fact I even remember once a radio show even said something to the effect of "This movie has Bill Paxton or Bill Pullman, not sure which one. Just one of those Bill P's that seems to be in a tonne of movies and nobody is sure who he is." Abrynkus 00:16, 29 November 2006 (UTC)


Has anyone else noticed in many finctional films his characters name is also Bill (Big Love, Twister, probably alot more). Does he prefer to act under his real name, or is this just a coincidence i picked up?

[edit] Contradiction

Second marriage The text of the article claims that he married his second wife in 1985, but the infobox claims 1987. -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 10:02, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
