I just found out today is Christopher Walkens 62nd Birthday (credit William Q Percy and a linkwhore for you www.ubersite.com/m/63102) and I thought I had to bring it to your attention. You may love him, hate him or feel totally indifferent to him I don't care the man Rocks!
He's been in the business for over 50 years Staring on Broadway before moving into films. He has been in films as diverse as Pennies from Heaven, The Deer Hunter (for which he won an academy award), Annie Hall, Biloxi Blues, The Dead Zone. Then came the likes of Kings of New York, True Romance, Suicide Kings and Pulp Fiction where he really came to find his Niche.
It was in this kind of role that, for me, he was and is simply the greatest. That cold hard stare, the ice cold way he can deliver a monologue. When he talks on screen he's there, he's with you, he's talking to YOU. Would you want this guy pissed off with you? Would you want to turn up to a chicks house to find this guy opening the door and asking you for a quick chat before you take his daughter out? No way! Believe me that girl's panties will be staying on tonight (well ok maybe not but some things are worth dieing for).
That said though he was also great at taking the piss out of himself and not afraid to show it look at Waynes Word 2 "you want me to say what right? Like I don't get it" or the Weapon of Choice Video for Fat Boy Slim ( which has actually just reminded me how great all of the Fatboys video's are I actually laughed out loud the first time I saw the praise you video and many times after but I digress).
The man can make you shit your self through fear or piss your self with laughter. You don't believe me? Take a look at 'The Gold watch' scene from Pulp Fiction one more time and tell me I'm wrong.
Christopher Walken I salute you.

He's so badass that in one movie (of which I cannot remember the name) he assfucked his driver to show off to some woman and it worked. Such huge balls this man has.
He was the only reason I sat and watched The Stepford Wives earlier tonight.

Christopher Walken is an amazing actor, but the cowbell thing is so fucking old by now.
Go up to the guy and make a crack about more cowbell, one of you, and see if he doesn't kick your ass for it.

My favorite is him on Saturday Night Live, as 'The Continental' - sleezy Eurotrash!

I'm flabbergahsted at the idea that a new religion hasn't been made with Christopher as their diety.

Cowbell was classic, but the Weapon of Choice music video was fucking awesome.
After I saw that video I had to do a little research and found out he's a trained dancer, flabbergasted!

his best performance is in Fatboy Slim's video for "Weapon of Choice"
----------------
The Guy can move that's for sure. Did you know he used to be a dancer andact on Broadway before he got into movies.

I put my pants on like everyone else....one leg at a time. But after I do that I make gold records.

I like the scene in True ROmance where he interrogates Dennis Hopper.
---------------
One of my favourites too, That's exactly the scene I was thinking of when talking about not wanting to see that face when you go to pick up a chick.

God, you've taken away my Jerry Orbach, my Mitch Hedberg, my Chris Farley and my Phil Hartman. If you take away my Christopher Walken, I will come up to heaven and rip your heart out of your chest through your anus. Which won't kill you, because you're God and omnipotent and junk, but it's bound to hurt.
