Ultimate westerns

[Brad]

I cannot help the comparison between my 4wheeling habit and my love of a good western movie (I would argue the reason I like 4wheeling is because of the old sat afternoon westerns on TV). In my eyes what qualifies is a western without any modern music, plenty of grit and a good adventure story. I am always looking to add to my collection.

Off the top of my head here are a few of my favorites

Unforgiven - 1992
Open range - 2003
Appaloosa- 2008
There will be blood- 2007 (not really a western but the story and scenery are good, big fan of DDL)


Not really authentic but

Blazing saddles- 1974

what are some of yours?

I drink your milkshake!! All the old Eastwood ones were great. I just saw Django Unchained last night, it was awesome. Another recent one that is sort of a western that I loved was No Country For Old Men.

x2 on Unforgiven and Open Range. Tombstone and Wyatt Earp were some of the newer ones I liked. Cowboys and Aliens wasn't bad either.


For the older ones though I would go with:

(Mostly John Wayne's movies)

The Shootist
Rooster Cogburn
The Cowboys
Chisum
True Grit - (the new one sucks)
El Dorado
The Comancheros
Rio Bravo
Hondo
Pale Rider

Tombstone is one of my all time favorites. I don't really like Val Kilmer but he was the best Doc Holiday ever. Also really like El Dorado.

TombstoneGreat movie

[Popsgarage]

TV series. The Rifleman and Bonanza.

[glacierpaul]

Great movie One of Val's best movie performances for sure! Second only to portraying Jim Morrison!

One of my favorites that I never get tired of is "My Name is Nobody". It has Henry Fonda and Terrence Hill in it. It is well worth watching.

[RockyMtnHigh]

I can't believe I left Lonesome Dove off my list.

[Brad]

Part of my motivation of this post is to get more titles to check out. Thanks! Watched Django Unchained on Sat night. Always been a huge Tarantino fan so of course I loved it.

[Rick]

Lonesome Dove off my list.X2!!! totally spaced that one out.Great series that I own on VHS:erm:

[Clickpopboom]

I'll admit when I saw the title to this thread, the first thing that came to mind was the Ultimate Western Bacon Cheeseburger at Jack in the Box.

My favorites would be
Tombstone
The Sacketts
True Grit
Young Guns
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
The Long Riders

[The StRanger]

Owww
Young guns 1 & 2
I forgot those ..

[RockyMtnHigh]

I remembered another one, Geronimo. The one with Robert Duvall and Gene Hackman.

[Popsgarage]

Since somebody mentioned Terrance Hill how 'bout They Call Me Trinity and They Still Call Me Trinity! Used to laugh my a$$ off at these! Boot Hill/Trinity Rides Again. Just went to Amazon and put 'em in my wish list!

The Trinity movies are the sequels to "My Name Is Nobody". If you liked the sequels, definitely check out the "Part 1"!

[The StRanger]

OMG..... Forgot
Cold Mountain ...

[RockyMtnHigh]

I spaced this one out too, Quigley Down Under.

[BLOODBANE]

I always liked "Little Big Man" with Dustin Hoffman. The Mountain Men and Jeremiah Johnson is another good one.
Of course your forgetting classics like
Wagons East
The Three Amigo's
The one with all the midgets...
Just kidding there
