    Wild wild West with Will Smith was the biggest piece of shit movie ever. To anyone who watched the TV show. Salma Hayek couldn't even save the movie.

    It's unwatchable.

    Westerns though really are the best genre. There needs to be more


    And unforgiven isn't on the list i noticed.

    That'll be the day...when there is enough space for these polls for all the worthy contenders. You could remove a couple I have and plug in Unforgiving or Searchers.

    The Unforgiven is one of those I can't turn off if it comes up on HBO.

    I love Clint, the Duke, Paul Newman, etc., etc., but for my money, Robert Duvall, did the best job as an actor in westerns. He and Tommy Lee Jones in Lonesome Dove were just phenomenal. Cutting cards for a poke with Lori darling - I love that shit.

    The Outlaw Josey Wales
    Josey Wales is the best of the Eastwood collection and covers his other worthy entries. If you just watched Josey Wales you would get it about what his appeal is as a western character. Unforgiven is a close second

    The Ten Bears scene with Wales is a classic. It is a good day to die.

    I went through a brief period of life where I would buy Redman Plug chewing tobacco because I wanted to be tuff like Clint in Josey Wales. Nothing tuffer than slicing off a chunk on plug tobacco with your knife.

    John Wayne The Cowboys.

    Has to be John Wayne.

    Although Unforgiven and Tombstone are favorites also.

    Young Bruce Dern here was perhaps the most evil of western movie villains in this one. I mean how many times does someone kill the Duke other than the Shootist when he was dying anyway both in the film and real life. Lee Marvin in Liberty Vallance is high on the list too of western bad guys. Lee Van Clef too.

    The Outlaw Josey Wales
    Couldn't guess how many times I've seen Josey Wales...or at least parts of it when it's on

    So many great scenes and lines, and Josey's character and view of life is right on for me

    Serious stuff like "dying is easy for men like you and me..." and funny badass stuff like
    "How is it for stains ?"

    I didn't see Josey Wales until this past year so it's hard to me to compare it with his others.

    But it's fucking awesome.

    So is high plains drifter.

    I don't even think they could make those movies today because people's heads would explode at his level of badassery

    The consensual rape scene in High Plains Drifter would be problematic today

    I remember watching that with my dad (I mean two dads!!! rofl!) 10 or 15 years ago and thinking, "Wow. The feminazis and cuck libs would throw a fit over this today." I think it was made around '71.

    John Wayne was a fag. He was too you boys. I know because one time I went to install one-way mirrors at his house in Brentwood, and he answered the door in a dress.

    In the Clint Eastwood realm, The Outlaw Josey Wales is Highway to Hell, and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is Powerage.

    Josey Wales is so full of awesome lines it makes my head spin, but The Good The Bad and The Ugly is more rough and raw and got me going on Clint Eastwood way back in the day.


    "No, I didn't surrender...........but they took my horse and made him surrender. They have him pulling a wagon up in Kansas I'll bet."

    vs.

    "He's tall, blonde, he smokes a cigar and he's a pig."



    How do you not love that shit? Either one is a solid choice.

    Unforgiven should be on there as should 3:10 to Yuma.

    However, the most egregious omission is High Noon. Gary Fucking Cooper and Grace Kelly. Cooper smoking the Miller gang all by himself is badass
