Anyone seen The Proposition? supposed to be really good.

it's great.

For anyone interested in "talking" about western movies, here are some great sites that I like to play on:
www.spaghetti-western.net
www.dukewayne.com
www.truewestmagazine.com
www.clinteastwood.org

I am major western fan-o...they come on AMC every Sat morning and I usually catch them all. There is an old one out there with...Ronald Reagan...yep, I believe its the Man with the Tin Star...damn good western. Many modern westerns (inc. Wyatt Earp w Costner) have stolen some of the scenes and dialogue out of this one.

By the way...The Appaloosa is total shit, sorry but that Brando movie is horrible...now One Eyed Jacks w him is a good revenge western.
Grim Prarie Tales ahas a story called McComas in it with Dylan McDermot that is cool.
Once Upon a TIme in the West...the Good the Bad and the Ugly...Great Films...so is Warlock and just about any western with Fonda, Peck, Stewart, Wayne...I have all John Wayne westerns, even the 1930's ones on DVD, someone posted it earlier, but it was correct...Last Man Standing is a Solid remake of Fistful of Dollars.

Haven't seen it...this is the one with Pierce?

Shit, almost forgot...Lonesome Dove...the first entire movie is a phenomonal flick...Dead Mans walk needs help, Streets of Laredo is above average

Really great. Superb... I had to rewind that shotgun blast to the head... by the way, that is what shotgun blasts really do to portions of the human body...they just kind of disappear into a red mist...

Lucio Fulci's "Four of the Apocalypse."

for anyone interested in westerns based on a historical event, try this marathon. These films are all based on the same story but are all completly different:

My Darling Clementine (1946)-Henry Fonda, Victor Mature
Gunfight At The OK Corral (1957) Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas
Hour Of The Gun (1967) James Garner, Jason Robards
Tombstone (1993) Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer
Wyatt Earp (1994) Kevin Costner, Dennis Quaid

im not into westerns but i enjoyed The Searchers

has anyone mentioned open range?

saw it over the weeked

awesome film. totally and completely awesome final showdown. some sketchy editing here and there, but it doesn't do much to hurt the film.

The Proposition sucked!

For modern versions, it has to be The Quick and the Dead. But major, major spaghetti western fan so The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is a must. A Fistful of Dollars, A few Dollars More and followed by High Plains Drifter.

yeehaaaaaaaaaaaa! :D

Yes, it had a very quick and weak ending!

"Ravenous" is a good film:

Anyone else seen it?

i really liked the proposition. a no frills, edgy western from oz. ravenous was also pretty good. has little big man been mentioned? and, does westworld count?

I thought it was okay and I can understand why someone might hate it.The story was weak....but it did have some nice gore!:)

Little Big Man depressed the hell outta me! It starts off funny and then turns real serious. A good film, and unpredictable.

i bought this expecting to have some shootouts!!
some tough guy gunslingers or something. but there was none.

visually it was great. but it was a boring movie.

don't you think that for a western it was more like the way it was? if you compare unforgiven and tombstone i think the proposition was more unforgiven, if you know what i mean.

imo, the best western from my era is tombstone.....and young guns 1

'folds her arms'

word


i even bought tons of western magazines

The Way West"
-Kirk Douglas, Robert Mitchum, Richard Widmark, Sally Field (her movie debut)


Wagon train drama about settlers heading out of Missouri and heading to Oregon and finding drama, adventure and romance along the way.

Not much action but well acted and a good solid story.

Tombstone is a great flick...... and Val Kilmer is the best "Doc Holliday"ever!

tombstone really did kick ass. watched it last night.

my local best buy just got a new shipment of westerns!
the new ones available
Heng Em High
High Plains Drifter
Pale Rider
Once Upon A Time In the West.
i think theres a few more too.

i agree, he's also played a great jim morrison.
val kilmer is cool in my book.

in terms of Eastwood westerns, which do you think i would prefer (looking for a movie with good action, shootouts and such, and also Tough Guy mentality) Hang Em High, High Plains Drfiter, Pale Rider, Unforgiven, or A Fistful Of Dollars?

Yes, he did!

A Fistful of Dollars, of course! You haven't seen it?

You do realize that The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the third installment in a trilogy, right?

The Man With No Name Trilogy:

A Fistful of Dollars (1964)

For a Few Dollars More (1965)

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly (1966)

All starring Clint Eastwood as...yep, you guessed it, The Man With No Name. So if you liked Clint's character in T.G.T.B.A.T.U., you'll love him just the same in the other flicks. You've only seen a third of the awesomeness.

You'll enjoy Trinity and Trinity still my name.

Yes, this i know. I have For A Few Dollars More.
'tis good. still doesnt compare to TGTBTU. ill be getting my hand on a fistful of dollars soon.

just Recieved The Wild Bunch.
Fuck yeah!

Oh, okay, then. You'll love A Fistful of Dollars. Awesome flick (and a fantastic score by Ennio Morricone, my second favorite by the man).

AMAZING film! Love it to death.

This one got some good reviews....coming out on DVD in a couple of weeks.

"The Virginian" (1946)

Arriving at Medicine Bow, eastern schoolteacher Molly Woods meets two cowboys, irresponsible Steve and the "Virginian," who gets off on the wrong foot with her. To add to his troubles, the Virginian finds that his old pal Steve is mixed up with black-hatted Trampas and his rustlers...then finds himself at the head of a posse after said rustlers; and Molly hates the violent side of frontier life.

Decent remake of the Owen Wister novel, not quite as good as the Gary Cooper version, but not a bad film at all.

I should be getting One Upon A Time In The West sometime today.

"Adio's Sabata"
-Yul Brynner

Master gunslinger Sabata helps some Mexican revolutionaries steal a wagonload of gold.

The "imitation" Sabata is IMO a terrific western adventure, much better then the official sequel "Return Of Sabata"

For those who don't know, this film was not originally going to be a Sabata film. It was originally going to be titled Indio Black, but the title was changed to cash in on the original Sabata film.

Lee Van Cleef was unavailable to play Sabata, as he was committed to making The Magnificent Seven Ride! (1972) where he played Chris Adams, a role made famous by Yul Brynner in The Magnificent Seven (1960). Instead, Brynner signed on for the role of Sabata, a role made famous by Van Cleef.

FUCK


THIS ONE
