What was the whole point of Perry's character that was an assistant to that archeologist in the beginning of the movie anyway?
he got jittery when the aliens came and shot at them for no reason and thats the last you ever saw of him in the movie. No descendants or anything
It was the 90’s and it was Luke Perry…that’s all the reason the casting director needed.
shareI thought they killed Luke Perry.
shareThe whole point was his drawings of those aliens, which was similar to what is found today on some historic artifacts.
shareThis is a great question, because I always thought his character was the apprentice to the priest, the same way that David was to Vito, and he was assigned to assist the professor in order to keep an eye on what he was doing.
The scene where he was pointing the pistol at the Mondoshawan and the priest kept telling Billy to look at him. "Look at me. It's me. Give me the gun." That implied some sense of existing trust or relationship between the two.
If that's the case, then his character, although not completely necessary to show for the story, did have his place to pass down the key.
It's just hilarious in itself seeing a mediocre actor like Luke Perry in the same film as people as talented as Gary Oldman and Ian Holm.
sharemediocre my ass.
Luke Perry was in a lot of good stuff. not just Beverly Hills 90201. He was in the Buffy Vampire Slayer movie, he was also in Jeremiah, at least in 10 episodes of Oz, did the voice of Rick Jones in the 1990s Incredible Hulk cartoon; Biker Mice From Mars, voice of Sub Zero in the USA Network Mortal Kombat cartoon show
Wow, all of those. Truly a great acting talent then😂
