The man who shot Liberty Valance
Stagecoach
The Searchers
The sons of katie elder [its what the newer movie the four brothers was based on but waaaaay better]
true grit
The assasination of Jesse James
Tombstone
310 to yuma, original and new
all movies btw
If you like video games, try Gun and Red Dead Revolver. I heard Stranger's Wrath was really good but I'm not too into quirky stuff.
just seen The assasination of Jesse James yesterday , isn't it like too long .

The Shadow Riders, The Sacketts, The Magnificent Seven. The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is (in my humble opinion) the best Western ever made.
Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid
Just watched this right before i made the thread last night. Such a great movie. Paul Newman and Robert Redford were excellent in it.
I love Clint Eastwood. He was such a badass. Watch High Plains Drifter, within 10 minutes into the movie he kills 3 guys, rapes a chick, drinks a ton, and becomes the town hero haha.
310 to Yuma was great. (The new one, havent seen the old one)
Tombstone is one of my favorite movies. Kilmer as Doc Holiday was so good.

I guess I'll have to rent High Plains Drifter.
Anything Sergio Leone touches is gold.

I hated this the first time I watched it. I like it now though. I'm in love with Grace Kelly.

Yea, that and 3:10 to Yuma are the only westerns I've seen. I like the genre but I'm very low on money and I usually don't watch movies unless I buy them.

Lonesome Dove, the book is amazing and the movie is pretty good cause it has Robert Duval and Tommy Lee Jones as the leads.

Hahahaha, I knew that I dont know why I typed that, I spaced out.
Russell as Wyatt > Costner.
I can probably rehearse every line from Tombstone, I have seen that movie so much

I immediately watched Tru Grit and The Searchers after reading Preacher; I was not disappointed. John Wayne was a douche in real life, but fuck if he wasn't fun to watch.
Once Upon a Time in the West is great especially if you watch the Arcade fire's My Body is a Cage video.
I dig both of the Nick Cave scored Westerns.
The wife loves Tombstone; I don't see what's great about it.
The man with no name series is beautifully shot and scored, without Eastwood, it would have been a shoulder shrug.

Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford and The Proposition?
Love the former and thought the latter was just okay/good.

correct. I loved John Hurt's character in The Proposition. Honestly, I thought they were both excellent and quite aesthetically pleasing.
