Slater is pictured here in a sticker insert from Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves set from Topps. I couldn't find any other sets he'd be shown in other than Upper Deck's Igor from last year but it's a cartoon and I don't have anything from that set kicking around.
Slater's been in some pretty amazing films over the course of his (early) career: Pump Up the Volume, Heathers (!!!), True Romance, Young Guns II, and the greatest movie to ever introduce a video game accessory (the Powerglove), The Wizard.
So happy birthday, Christian Slater. And if you identify yourselves as being a part of Gen X, there's still plenty of fun to be had in the coming years.
(Warning - the clip below is brilliant but there is a couple or five cuss words. If you're in the office or have a couple of little ones nearby, please pump down the volume.)

so, being 30, do you identify with gen y or gen x? fun post. i like how you ended it.
gen x and now 40-something.
The Wizard. Easily one of the worst movies ever.
Thank you for drumming up that horror.
You mentioned spokesperson for GenX and I immediately thought about River Phoenix and how we can't bemoan how old he's getting and I got sad. Pump Up The Volume is a kickass movie and cheered me up a little.
hello... hapi blogging... have a nice day! just visiting here....
