Please recommend me some good westerns? I really liked Tombstone and thought it was because of the cast and story, but after having watched 3:10 to Yuma and the recent one with Kurt Russell, turns out I really like the setting and the time period.
TGtBatU, The Searchers, El Dorado, The Outlaw Josey Wales, Hondo, Unforgiven, the original True Grit, etc
>>64413817
>The Searchers
>Stagecoach
>Rio Bravo
>Liberty Valance
>True Grit 1969
>El Dorado
>The Cowboys
If you liked The Hateful Eight, I recommend Stagecoach, a far superior film with a traveling group of colorful people trapped in a stagecoach.
>>64414158
>>True Grit 1969
currently downloading the 2010 version. should i watch the original instead?
>>64414080
>>64414158
>The Searchers
Truly one of the GOAT westerns, I reccmmend this one too.
Also, "Duck you suckers" is a really underrated Leone film, one of my favorites.
>>64414244
Honestly, Duke gives Rooster a more erratic and go-get-em personality compared to the deadbeat, grumpy Dude. They're both well made, even though I find the 2010 a hallow shell imitator and Oscar bait ish.
Not sure if it's exactly what yer looking for, but The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford is pretty good.
/thread
>>64413817DUCK, YOU SUCKER!
Why is Kurt Russel in so many westerns with such godly manly mustaches and facial hair?
>>64413817
Also watch Red River.
Young Guns
Young Guns II
>>64414517
Django Unchained is good up until that pointless shoot out. The movie ended when Django and Dr. Schultz received Brunhilda from Calvin. Uno Farto does not know how to end movies anymore, sadly.
Young Guns series is fantastic
>>64413817
If you're ok for something a bit different and can handle a musical (it's a very gritty musical with drunks singing) then Paint Your Wagon is GOAT. Lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood in a musical
>>64414625
you say pointless, i say cathartic
>>64413817
High Plains Drifter is forever the GOAT
>>64414517
that movie started good until Cristoph Waltz totally breaks character and shoots Leo DiCaprio
>>64414625
this. it's as though, at that point, Quentin handed off the script to a 6 year old black kid who had the Civil War described to him in 5 minutes
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly Directors Cut.
Tuco is my hero.
Spurs at the window bitch.
>>64413817
The Searchers
Red River
True Grit (both versions)
Once Upon a Time in the West
The Wild Bunch
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
Unforgiven
The Good The Bad and The Ugly
A Fistful of Dollars
For a few dollars more
3:10 to Yuma
The Assasination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Days of Heaven
My Darling Clementine
Treasure of the Sierra Madre
>These movies influenced the western genre, and are pretty much westerns except the cowboys are replaced with samurai
Seven Samurai
Yojimbo
Sanjuro
Zatoichi series
Hara Kiri
The Hidden Fortress
I actually liked North to Alaska, if you want to see a lighter, more up beat John Wayne western/frontier movie. It's directed by Henery Hathaway, who directed the original True Grit.
If not, definitely check out McLintock, also a good western comedy starring the Duke.
Lot of good recommendations here. I would add Fort Apache.
>>64414244
The original True Grit was one of Wayne's worst movies. It's garbage.
>>64414814
Finally at least someone said 3:10 to Yuma.
>>64414829
>Henery
Henry*
>>64414158
>All those John Wayne movies
>>64414844
m8 he won himself an oscar for best actor, a time when oscars actually meant something.
>>64414814
Hara Kiri is so fucking good. Easily one of my favorite movies ever. It's perfection in every aspect.
>>64414881
Yeah, sorry, I grew up watching the Duke. I might check out spaghetti westerns one day.
I did see a Fistful of Dollars. It was GOAT.
>>64414844
Get fucked.
>>64414244
Neither are that great, but the original has more spunk, it's not illusory about its source material like the Coens remake, which is almost embarrassing how much they straight up copy. Waste of their time just to say they could do it.
>>64414575
Kurt Russel is a baller, that's why.
>>64414772
he didnt break character, shultz couldnt live knowing he was outsmarted by someone as evil as candy, and being a bounty hunter, shot him in a fit of rage
>>64414902
He won a fucking sympathy Oscar like Reynolds did for Boogie Nights. You would know this if you knew anything about John Wayne. He was a terrible actor.
>>64414814
>Listing those Kurosawa films
my nigga
>>64413817
The Salvation (excellent danish-made film)
The Proposition (australian but fits western)
3:10 to Yuma
No Country For Old Men (modern western)
those clint eastwood movies
The Tall T is a great basic western
>>64414955
It's garbage. Literally his worst movie.
>>64414996
>No Country For Old Men
>western
Stop it with this bullshit
>>64415015
I thought he, like the actress who played Maddie, were pretty good.I did like the Coens 2010 version too, anon
>>64414961
>which is almost embarrassing how much they straight up copy. Waste of their time just to say they could do it.
Would you mind explaining this remark, please?
>>64414829

>>64414981
>shultz couldnt live knowing he was outsmarted by someone as evil as candy
that's fucking stupid and Schultz wasn't established to have such a delicate will to live at any point in the movie
>>64414996
No Country For Old Men isn't really a western. It's more of a crime thriller with western undertones, 2bh family
>>64414517
Django was a Mary Sue.
>>64413817
The Good, the Bad, the Weird is a crazily fun Korean western.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Tk80iXCspM
>>64414983
>John Wayne was a terrible actor
>>64415063
The 2010 True Grit follows the book unlike the 1969 version. Maddie is the main character and the Coen's bro movie did it better. The Searchers is a much better Wayne film, his Rooster was pretty bad.
>>64415131
>Pretentious filler westerns the list
Barely a single good western on there desu
>>64415138
>John Wayne is a good actor
>>64415131
>>64415093
he never tried something like rescuing the wife of a slave before, nor encountered someone as vile as calvin candy. again, him being someone who kills for a living could explain his lapse in reason, like a reflex
>>64415140
Yeah, the Coens stayed true to the novel, but I just couldn't get into Jeff Bridges' Rooster. IIRC, he kept it safe, besides the shoot out at the end. I prefer spontaneous suicidal adventurer Duke Rooster.
>>64415093
This and he was more in control than Django
>>64415080
>tfw you will never hear a theme song before a western anymore
>>64415275
calvin candy and shultz both appear to be sophisticated and refined, in control, but both of them loose control in the film
>>64414625
I'd also like to add it didn't need Samuel Jackson in it. His character was too much.
>>64414517
that 2pac song was so fucking out of place. what was quentin thinking?
>>64415344
No, Calvin was portrayed to be a bottled up volcano, a guy who would explode at any moment, especially if you read the screenplay, which contains cut scenes from the final movie.
Dr. Schultz is the complete opposite, someone who was more in control of his actions and emotions. Even if the killing of the slave via dogs got to him, that still doesn't justify his out of character murder at the end.
>>64415346
i enjoyed it having two villians, one white, and one black
>>64415427
>So diverse
You should run along back to tumblr now
>>64415418
its almost like people can do irrational things sometimes, especially high tense situations
>>64414881
This.
I can't get into Westerns because they all end up looking the same because of that bland actor.
>>64415460
Remember the scene when Dr. Schultz wanted to escort Django and Brunhilda out of the Candieland.
>"Let's go."
So why did Dr. Schultz suddenly shoot him? Because he lost? Dr. Schultz is more mature than Calvin. Being the bigger and wise man, he should've turned and walked away, not kill.
Django should've killed, honestly, since Calvin threatened the life of his wife and we all know how much of a trigger happy guy he is. Remember the scene in which he wanted to pull his gun out at the dinner table?
>>64415470
Do you have that one kind of autism where you can't recognize the difference between faces?
>>64415517
wow it's almost like shultz really isnt as clever as he thought causing him to kill candy
>>64415615
Calvin did get the best of him and saw through his lies, but mainly thanks to Stephen. I think Django should've stepped up. It seemed very odd as to why he casually stood patiently until after Schultz's death to attack. The guy wanted to blow Calvin's head off the moment he arrived.
>>64413817
"The Searchers", "High Noon", "Stagecoach", "Unforgivin", "Dances With Wolves", "Rio Bravo", & "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly"
>>64414575
Oscar's hair set in TFA may be the work of the ILM ,but this Kurt's mustache is his own.
SERIOUSLY THIS THREAD HAS 70 REPLIES AND NO ONE FUCKING MENTIONS LONESOME DOVE
LONESOME DOVE IS BY FAR THE BEST GOD DAMN WESTERN EVER. I DONT CARE THAT ITS CONSIDERED "a mini series" BUT HOLY SHIT LONESOME DOVE IS AMAZING.

>>64416939

>>64416939

>>64415098

Have none of you transvestites seen The Salvation?
>>64417157
No but I will soon.
>>64415060
>>64415098
>a working class family man is out hunting
>comes across the aftermath of a shootout between two groups of outlaws over some treasure
>takes the treasure and is pursued relentlessly by outlaws
How is that not a fucking modern western?
>>64417317
Cool I'm glad to have helped... the acting is great, script is good... couldn't find any holes though I only watched it once.
>>64416939
WHAT ABOUT BONANZA???
THE RIFLEMAN???
Unforgiven is the GOAT
>it's a helluva thing killing a man...
>>64414619
Those movies are great. God damn it does the second one make me sad.
We've been seeing a kind of indie Western renaissance the past couple of years. And Based Kurt was in 2 this past year alone.
>>64414487
Seconded
>>64414814
Good list
add
Stagecoach
Drums Along the Mohawk
Django Kill... If You Live, Shoot!
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
Duck, You Sucker! (not really a western, but Sergio Leone)
>>64417688
Western Revival since ...maybe 09?
Ive been following and studying up closley
>>64418093
I would argue since 07 with 3:10 to Yuma remake (which was actually based on a book) and the Assassination of Jesse James
>>64413817
read the box
this is the top...work down from there
Anybody seen Bone Tomahawk yet?
>>64413817
>Antonio das Mortes
>Ride the High Country
>My Darling Clementine
>Day of the Outlaw
>Wild Bunch
>>64418273
Yes, its pretty great. Some really interesting characters. One of the most graphic deaths in cinema history imo
>>64418209
Good taste anon
Lonesome Dove is probably my favourite mini series, amazing characters, story, everything
>>64418273
boring western + shitty Hills have Eyes rip off
>>64418273
Yes.

Appaloosa.
How is my hurriedly ranked list family?
https://letterboxd.com/sabata/list/ranked-westerns-i-have-seen/
>>64413817
Once Upon a Time in the West is the best western ever made.
>>64418306
>>64418354
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT
Is it good or not fuckos?
Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFxwq33rVAs
>>64418918
Its the best recent western.
>>64418918
Only one way to find out
How about The Revenant? is it good? is it a western?
>>64418952
I liked Bone Tomahawk, but I liked Slow West more
Unforgiven. Unfortunately, it's such an effective deconstruction of the genre that it might be difficult to fully enjoy another Western again.
>>64414718
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VM5-xFenaZI
>>64419105
>deconstruction of the genre
Literally how so? Because they had a nickelbook character exaggerating his achievements, while living in a fantasy western town filled with typical brothel whores, and there's a typical genre gunfight at the end, accompanied by fucking lightning? lol
This was a better deconstruction of the genre, and it is based in reality.
>>64414814
how did you put fistful of dollars up there, but leave out The Magnificent Seven
Silverado is good one
>>64419941
>standing on the shoulders of giants
>>64419974
Because it's just a copy of Seven Samurai maybe? Or he just forgot it
