RIP Billy Jack

Inspired many an underdog to fight back and had really good taste in bikes.

Sad news indeed. Having said that, he made possibly the worst sequel in history, 'Billy Jack Goes To Washington'. It was supposed to be a retelling of 'Mr. Smith Goes To Washington' but it was even worse on film than it was on blotter.

Billy Jack too, no way! RIP

Awful movies. I dont even remember the name of the actor who played him.

Remember ... or ever knew? Tom Laughlin.

 I'm goona take this foot and place it on that side of your face,and you know what? There's not a thing you can do about it!

  Ya his movies were pretty cheesy,the acting even worse but Mr Laughlin actually knew his stuff!  He was trained by a Korean Master and did all the fight scenes.


  Billy Jack goes to Washinton was almost as bad as the last gunfighter,both tied for the title of no need to see.....     But as a kid I must confess to having watched every one of his later movies,he had a small career as a B actor in the mid 50's and I even saw a couple of those.


   Mr Laughlin....

Yeah, I was there in 1971 but like I said the movie sucked so why would I remember?

I didn't say you weren't there. I'm wondering why you bothered reading
the credits if you didn't like the movie one bit. He was never a big name.
