This.

Also I enjoyed High Plains Drifter, I wouldn't say it's god-tier, but it was a good movie.

>>62794888
Tombstone is fun, even if it's a story that's been told 100 times and isn't that impressive.

The Rebel Outlaw Josey Wales is the greatest western to ever be written by a member of the KKK that thought he was a Cherokee.

I was worried The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence wouldn't be patrician enough for you guys. Glad to see I was wrong.

Anyone else think it's weird Jimmy Stewart ever did westerns? He was pretty good in them but looking at the rest of his body of work it's weird he was in so many.
>>
>>62798349

You did Westerns in the 50s or you didn't eat. It's like capeshit now.

Best western not directed by Leone

I'd recommend McCabe & Mrs. Miller, but it's something of a deconstruction of the western genre. Still a great film though

Fuck off.

Many of the great westerns are deconstructions of the genre.
And yes that's a great film.

Lonesome Dove is god tier, even though it's technically a mini series.

Once Upon a Time in the West (1968)

"A Fistful of Dynamite" ("Duck You Sucker") 1971

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)
>>
>>
>>62801314
A Fistful of Dynamite is the most underrated of Leone's movies imo
>>
>>62799145
>Bone Tomahawk

5/10 not that good.
>>
>>62794888
A Fistful of Dollars is not God tier. It's good, but FAFDM and TGTBTU are leagues better, and the rest of Leone's filmography beats it too.

I don't care if it's it's not as good as Seven Samurai, it's the fucking GOAT.

Unforgiven is shit m8
Eastwoods worst "good" film by far

>>62800594
Have it torrented, looking forward to watching it

Well considering its literally his only film not considered a masterpiece it has to be
>>
>>62802017
>literally his only film not considered a masterpiece

Someone doesn't know Colossus of Rhodes, his first movie.
Doesn't deserve to be called a masterpiece btw, while Duck You Sucker probably deserves it.

I am sure this will get flamed to holy hell but

I loved "Silverado"
>>
God tier:
>The Outlaw Josey Wales
>Man with No Name Trilogy
>Tombstone
>Magnificent Seven
>True Grit (original)
>Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

Good tier:
>3:10 to Yuma
>Pale Rider
>High Plains Drifter
>Assassination of Jesse James
>Silverado

Shit tier:
>Unforgiven
>Open Range
>True Grit (meme version)
>Hang 'em High
>Once Upon a Time in the West
>Anything else with John Wayne
>Other meme westerns like Cowboys & Aliens and Jonah Hex
>>
>>62802130
Only good western with Costner because he didn't spend any time behind the camera.
>>
>>62802354
Swap the true grit versions and bump up OUATITW
>>
>>62802354

> OUATITW shit-tier
> True Grit remake not better than the original
> Discounting the few Wayne movies that are actually good (The Searchers, Rio Bravo, Red River)
> Silverado not in shit-tier

What's it like having objectively terrible taste?
>>
>>62798278

Nothing has ever begged for a Criterion remaster more

> tfw Scorsese is a huge fan of PG&BtK, and would probably do a guest edit if they only asked him

>>62801210
Fucking excellent taste

Broken Trail miniseries with Robert Duvall and Thomas Haden Church
That movie Robert Duvall and Kevin Costner did (spacing on the name)
