hi everybody

for me a great western is one that no matter how many times I have seen it no matter if its in my cd collection if i am clicking through the channels iand i come across one of these movies i always stop and enjoy them one more time.

shane    best gunfight ever and best bad guy ever walter "jack" palance
hondo, rio bravo, cowboys and true grit    johnwayne nuff said
magnificent seven     we deal in lead friend
outlaw josie wales     leave em be bugs gotta eat same as worms
ride the high country  joel macrea and randolf scott one last walk down for two great last performances.
ride lonsome  a man can do that 
crossfire trail last, stand at sabre river and selleck's remake of monty walsh

Gotta disagree with one thing: Bruce Dern is the best bad guy ever.

Yep.  And you can add Vincent Price, too.  Despicable characters when they were cast in the part.

Sherlock woulda been shear luck without Watson.  Anyhoo, I don't think Basil ever did a western.

Basil Rathbone was brilliant as a villainous Sheriff Of Nottingham, but of Dodge City?...I don't think so.

I guess my FAV would prob. be the Lonsome Dove movies and most of the before and after movies in the group. I really enjoy watching them.

Young Guns I and II were my fav growing up. I guess I was the right age for those and watched them at least once a week.


I like so many now its hard to tell......O.L.J.W. is def. up there on the top of my list. I also really like Geronimo.

Ol' Bruce Dern has caught a lot of flak from his role in "The Cowboys".  You just can't shoot John Wayne and get away with it.

He made a fantastic bad guy.  In fact, though he's been in a lot of stuff (movies and TV), only once did I see him in a "good guy" role.  That was in the science fiction movie Silent Running.

... Especially in the back (as I remember it).

There was a song named 'The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance' ...

Maybe there should have been a song about the only man who ever shot John Wayne (except for some nameless Japanese soldier in 'The Sands of Iwo Jima")

Then there would have to be a song about the bartender in The Shootist.

Ferget Kristofferson's singin, have ever seem him try ta act?  Sorry if yer readin this Kris, but William Shatner is better than you.

I don't care much for Christopherson myself... He's a dyed in the wool liberal. When he sings, it sounds like the mating call of a love sick YAK...

However,  he writes some of the best songs ever. "Me and Bobby MaGee," "Sunday Mornin Coming Down," and "Why Me Lord," are some of the best songs written in the sixties and seventies.  But, he insists on singing, and it ruins everything.

Christopherson starred in a movie named "The Tracker." It is a really good Western, and Christopherson will hold his own with anybody, acting in a movie.

If he weren't such a damned liberal, I might enjoy watching some, but not all, of his entertainment activities, just as long as he doesn't sing.

Nor can I feel any sorrow for a Refumblican.

Okay, now that we've called each other names, can we get back to the topic of this thread?  :)
