Yep The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is better than the Magnificent Seven. For a Few Dollars More I might like better than that. I thought the Eastwood/Van Cleef combo was the best out there (as evidenced in TGTBATU). I personally preffered A Fistful of Dollars to For a Few Dollars More. And preffered Yojimbo which AFOD is based on to any of the Dollars trilogy.

"Rio Bravo" is on AMC right now. And Angie Dickinson was mindbogglingly beautiful. I'm having very impure thoughts. Uncle Junior had the right idea about her  .

Or docking the pay of the heatstroked Chinese guy for napping on the job.
Between that and All in the Family, there's no way these films and shows would be green lit today. Lol Once upon a time the west Good the bad and the ugly Tombstone was always a film I liked aswell

Does blazing saddles count  Lol The guy in this picture was also in Honeymoon in Vegas he was the leader of the flying Elvis's. Incidently, they are going to make a play on the movie HoneyMoon in Vegas my wife told me. I called up my friend Johnny about it if he did not know. He was in that movie. I thought it would be cool if he tried to get the same part in the play. So he can move back here so we can hang out together again.

The three favourite John Wayne movies for me are Rio Bravo, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, and The Shootist. Clint Eastwood are A Fist of Dollars, High Plains Drifter, and Unforgiven.
Other favourites The Wild Bunch, The Shooting, One-Eyed Jacks, Seven Men From Now, and Little Big Man.

Only one missing Giacomo, 3:10 to Yuma! From my boy Elmore Leonard. Hard to believe that the same guy who gave us Ben Wade also gave us Chili Palmer. But such was his genius  .

I apologize if it has been said. But my favorite hands down is Rio Bravo with Dean Martin and John Wayne. All around great movie and I always loved the final shootout.

One person i've really took to is John Ford, i know a common criticism of him is that his movies are boring, but the cinematography in his films are practically unmatched even today. Watching him film the exact same Desert landscape time after time, is breathtaking.
I love Ford, too. It's obvious that sometimes he made a conscious decision to show an extended long shot without any regard to how that might slow down the action. It's an off-the-wall connection, but Luchino Visconti's filming of Sicily in Burt Lancaster's "The Leopard" (another Criterion film) reminded me a lot of a Ford film.
