I love the following Westerns:

The Wild Bunch (watching it right now)
Posse (With Mario Van Peebles)
Unforgiven
The Outlaw Jose Wales
Young Guns I&II
Wyatt Earp & Tombstone (Two contemporaries that told almost the same story)

What westerns do you all like?

All great choices, but I would like to add,

"Pat Garret & Billy The Kid"

I know it gets ripped, but even a half bad Peckinpah movie has moments of brillance.

What kind of TROLL question is that?

What the heck are you trying to pull, anyway?

I like Unforgiven, too.

Quigley Down Under

Josey Wales

Pale Rider

Silverado (I know, but I still like it.)

That's my all time favorite movie scene and has one of the best all time lines too. "Fill your hands you Sum B!@#&es!".  

I liked Lonesome Dove too.

Yes to all.  Is there such a thing as a bad western?  I love them all.

Unforgiven
Outlaw Josey Wales
The Long Riders
Ride With The Devil
True Grit
Tombstone
The Shootist
Quigley Down Under
Young Guns
Silverado
High Noon
Little Big Man
Dances With Wolves wasn't too bad....
El Dorado ?(JW, James Caan with a sawed off)Can't recall if this is the right title.  There were 22-3 of these JW westerns with pretty much the exact same plot, with Dean Martin, Gabby Hayes & one of them had Ricky Nelson.

I'm a big fan of all the older ones I grew up with, most of them already listed. I will say tho, even with Sharon Stone and that punk DiCRAPrio - The Quick & The Dead was a cool flick! Gene Hackman played yet another "Ultimate Asshole" role like in The Unforgiven!!! He just kicks ass!

Jim_Dandy, I'd forgotten about The Frisco Kid & Rustler's Rhapsody.  Good picks.  What about Lust In The Dust or  Three Amigos!.  The Paleface & Son Of Paleface.  
Link Posted: 4/13/2002 5:54:01 PM EDT
[#38]
Lust In the Dust wasn't bad, but The Three Amigos sucked. Forgot about the one with Arnold Schwarzenegger ("Handsome Stranger"), Ann-Margaret, and Kirk Douglas (the name escapes me).

Forgot about these:

Barbarosa
The Grey Fox
Smokey The Cowhorse
A Man Called Sledge
Invitation to a Gunfight
Goin' South

Hud gets an honorable mention, too.

Three Amigos! sucked?  Well, I'll admit it's been a long while since I've seen it last (10-15 years) but it wasn't _that_ bad...  At least the female lead was a hottie.  Another addition to my list:  Ballad Of Cat Ballou....I know, I know but she made it long before she became Hanoi Jane.
