Today I watched again the best Cowboy film ever

[The Idle Biker]

The Magnificent Seven. It's the best Cowboy film ever, isn't it?

It's certainly right up there. Blazing Saddles is pretty good too though

[andrewsmith]

The Magnificent Seven has a larger appeal, Blazing Saddles is good, but it is slightly limited as some people could take offense. If I could only own one I do not know which I would choose.

Slightly controversial, but West World was pretty awesome and also featured Yul Brynner.

mackenna's gold, one of the long forgotten ones

More Sci Fi than Wild West :D

good the bad the ugly, rio bravo, gunfight at the OK coral, high noon, shane, a fag paper between them all in my book.

Cheers Mark.

Indeed it was mate, but twas a goodun! I reckon 3:10 To Yuma is one of the better westerns I've seen for a long time. I know it has Bale and Crowe in it, but I remember it being pretty gripping.

[rictus01]

Oh forgot winchester 73, that was another good one.

[maviczap]

I like Pale Rider, Outlaw Jose Wales & Unforgiven, can always watch them if they're on

[Bluefish]

Spaghetti westerns, the good the bad and the ugly etc :cheers:

[Bluefish]

hang em high, brill.

[WayneL]

The best western has got to be Wild Wild West with Will Smith! LMAO.

Seriously though, for me, if it's starring Clint Eastwood, then it's up there with the best of them.

The Magnificent Seven is brilliant and is one of the best though.

I just realised I watched 3 of my choices at Saturday morning pictures, now that's showing my age a bit.......:eek:

[WayneL]

I think the earliest film I remember seeing at the cinema (or the Pictures where I come from) was back to the future, and I was nearly 9 then. :-0

[rictus01]

you missed a brillient Saturday kids tradition, it used to cost a shilling each to get there on the bus, watch a whole morning of cartoons and films (lost in space B/W, robinhood B/W, disney colour, woody woodpecker, Robison Caruso B/W, and the feature film) and then the bus home and you still had 2D for popcorn too.

[WayneL]

Hehe. The cheapest I remember bus fares being was 10 pence. By Top Gear Maths, that makes you twice as old as me!

[rictus01]

are you 26 ?

[WayneL]

are you 26 ?

Lol, I wish. What's the cheapest you remember fuel being out of interest? As in, when you were filling up once you were driving.

I think the cheapest I remember was around 43 pence litre if I remember correctly.

[rictus01]

to be honest it was sold in gallons back then, can't remember how much though, although I earn £11 a week and filled the bike several times each week (as well as all my other costs), so couldn't have been much a gallon.

I think the cheapest I remember was around 43 pence litre if I remember correctly.

Cheapest fuel I bought myself was 58p per gallon. (about 13p per litre), and that felt expensive on a wage of about £5 a week working every evening and saturdays in a butchers.
My Dad says it was under 2 shillings (10p) a gallon when he had his scooter

[WayneL]

Although I grew up with using mainly imperial measurements. For some reason I've never really used gallons apart from mpg. Not sure why.

[stewie]

Youre all talking $hite, the best western ever was 'the searchers' I mean come on, John Wayne, Natalie Wood, injuns, fecking brilliant :D

[maviczap]

Nah

Not sure if this is a western, but a good film Shenandoah with Jimmy Stewart

[stewie]

Ok, how about 'Jerimah johnson' with Robert Redford ?
or 'Tom Horn' with Steve McQueen ?
or 'The Cowboys' ?
or 'Lonesome dove' ?
love me westerns I do :D

[stewie]

Or the original 'true grit' ?

[The Idle Biker]

Well the Magnificent Seven does have the best "theme" music

[maviczap]

Or the original 'true grit' ?

Yes, why did they bother to remake it, it was an all time classic, don't touch

[maviczap]

Can't believe no ones said 'Chisum' its on now, great film
