The BEST western movie EVER

[legatebroke]

I have to say my all time favorite would be hands down "Lonesome Dove". I am physically drained when that movie is over.

 

[dobiegillis]

All mentioned are great movies, but let us not forget Glenn Ford's "The fastest Gun Alive". It would definitely be in my top five.

tombstone, true grit, rooster cogburn, little big man, anything with clint eastwood (even non-westerns), the old & new alamo, well i guess westerns in general

 

[Santa Clause]

Magic Static, I totally forgot about Quigley Down Under, That has to be on top of my list. Recently rented My Name Is Nobody (1974) and The Big Country (1958), not great movies but entertaining.

The trinity of "Trinity" movies were classic! "THEY CALL ME TRINITY", "TRINITY IS STILL MY NAME" and "MY NAME IS NOBODY". Terrence Hill and Bud Spencer.

Watch this scene closely (from Trinity is Still My Name) when the deck is cut in this scene. Ha! Just kidding, watch til the end for the most hilarious scene of all time!

Then there are the western comedies, the classic, "Paint Your Wagon", "The Halleluja Trail", and more recently "Wagons East" (John Candy's last movie).
The Cowboys is a classic also(the first movie John Wayne dies in). I like Bruce Dern as a bad guy. He plays the role well in several movies. Yes he's my favorite bad guy.

 

[mdram]

oh western comedies now. i can easily pick a fav for that. "Blazing Saddles", try and release that movie today.

Did anyone mention the Magnificent Seven?

the Support Your Local Sheriff & Gunfighter Movies with James Garner & Jack Elam are great comedy's...

Good Grief! I just realized... I only have four 1TB HDD's to put these all on! LOL!

I am working on it (all of the movies already mentioned) I have already recorded... with one or two exceptions at most so far.

The very first Mag 7 movie was great, I didn't care for the sequels.

Four For Texas is also a classic!

Blazing Saddles is one of my absolute favorite movies of all time, but you are correct... It is a comedy, not actually a western. And I don't think anyone BUT Mel Brooks could get away with a movie like that, then or now.

Oh yes! Of course James Garner was great in every role he did, but I really like him and Jack Elam in "Support Your Local Gunfighter" the best of the two.

Garner was one of the great actors, who were somewhat overlooked. He was also a damned good singer!

Now I know this may be controversial(because of the lead actress). But for a western comedy,Cat Ballou. Lee Marvin (and his horse) can't easily be forgotten. Blazing Saddles and Support Your Local Sheriff round out my top three in the Comedy category (in no order). The Good, The Bad, The Ugly is #1 in westerns here.

 

[dfergie]

I need to get Cat Ballou, it has been years...

 

[Magic Static]

Cat Ballou, good, got it, While were in the wayback machine, anyone remember Son of Pale Face? with Bob Hope?

 

[toto]

My favorite 3 in sequence: Unforgiven, Quigley Down Under, Rustler's Rhapsody. I'm old enough to remember Wallace Berry and prefered Gary Cooper to John Wayne (something about authenticity).

 

[comfrey]

Personally I didn't think I'd like 'Seraphim Falls', but a buddy of mine convinced me to rent it.
I must say that Liam Neeson and Pierce Brosnan do a pretty good job for a "newer" western flick.

 

[dfergie]

One of the best gunfight scenes has to be in Open Range imho...

 

[pjcl]

"A Fistful of Dollars" all the way!

 

[jdbob]

Lonesome Dove I've bought twice (VHS and Blu-ray) so I guess that's #1
Dancing with Wolves I have on VHS.
Blazing Saddles I have on VHS.
