And they occasionally give you the wrong room key and you get to walk in on a woman singing in the shower.

It was a great movie. Look for my left arm on a tv monitor in a casino scene. I was an extra, playing a coroner bringing a body off a hill.

Val Kilmer's Doc Holiday was maybe the role of his life. And Sam freaking Elliott and Cap't Ron were in it too? You kidding me?

Why Ike, whatever do you mean?!?

and of course:

I'm your huckleberry...

Val Kilmer, Kurt Russell, and Sam Elliot don't come close to adding up to Henry Fonda.

You clearly haven't seen Captain Ron.

The Cowboys, heh. That is one of my earliest childhood memories. It was 1972, I was 7, and excited as fuck to go see The Cowboys. It was a movie about kids herding cows and shooting guns, what was there not to like for a 7 year old?

My Mom told me we were going to see it Friday night. Friday afternoon we went to the store, I saw a sandwich at the store I just had to have, begged Mom for it. She told me no numerous times, I kept it up, I wanted it. She finally relented...

We got home and ate dinner before going to the movie, I took one bite and didn't like it at all. I sat at that dinner table for four hours, Mom insisting I was going to eat that sandwich and me knowing I wasn't. I snuck two bites off into the bathroom pretending to pee, but Mom got wise to that quickly. A bite stashed into my shorts was quickly found as well.

I eventually ate that fucking sandwich, but by then it was way too late to see the Cowboys. Mom wouldn't take me to it to any other showings, and I had to watch it a few years later on a small black and white TV. I was rather underwhelmed.

I am about to read this whole thread.. haven't yet.

But seeing the title this was my response:

The Maginifcient 7 is the answer.

No western lives up to it's supremacy.

Also, I must add... the BW Hotel, and Western / Country/ CW debates are fun.. but lets focus people.

Lonesome Dove was fantastic but not a movie. TV miniseries, if this is open to TV...

Just rewatched the Shootist which I thought held up decently and was pretty good.

Stagecoach is a classic

F-Troop

As much as I love The Good, the Bad and The Ugly, Svengali is correct, Dead Man is the shit!

Seraphim Falls is pretty fuckin good too!

This one was a hidden sleeper for sure. I had an 8pm flight to SLC back in January and American Airlines had it on its in flight entertainment app. I settled in for what I thought was a cross country snoozefest, but I figured I would watch a movie first. What a surprise how good this movie was. I had just been in West Texas in November so it looked similar in its landscape(Yes I realize the movie was filmed in new Mexico). Bridges killed it as usual.
Would recommend matching.
