His best role was playing Jim Morrison in the Doors movie.

I know, let's have a spelling contest!

Tombstone is my faves. Side note, the judge that sentenced Earp after the OK was Wells Spicer (An Iowa man)

Wyatt Earp is one of Costners better movies (next to Waterworld) It is the more accurate of the two but that gun fight at the River is epic in tombstone

"Go ahead skin it. Skin that smokewagon and see what happens!"

I love Thombstone. Wyatt Earp is probably more historically accurate, but the lines in Tombstone are awesome!

While Wyatt Earp was somewhat more historically accurate Tombstone was far and away the better movie. One of my favorites of all time. Kurt Russell, Sam Elliot and Val Kilmer were all perfect for their roles. Great flick.

Waterworld? Really? That movie sucked balls. Did I miss the pirate?

Dances with Wolves is the best Costner movie in my opinion. A great story with good acting. Costner should just stick to westerns. Open Range was pretty good too with co star Robert Duvall.

Even better, Wyatt Earp grew up in Pella, IA, of all places. Morgan was born there. Pella!

There is no such thing as a good Kevin Costner movie. Everything he touches turns to stone. He ruined Field of Dreams for me. I had to choke down The Guardian on my return trip from Hawaii in 2007, and I applauded and cheered when his character died in the end.

I read he's been like that since doing "The Doors". Really got into being Morrison.

Probably because that mustache is ridiculous.

Tombstone all the way. "Why Johnny Ringo, you look like somebody just walked over your grave."

Yep, I agree. They are both good movies, but Tombstone may be my favorite movie ever. I could watch it anytime.
