Re: Wild West Magazine's 100 greatest Westerns

I know it's unorthodox to bump a five-year old thread, but for anyone who uses Letterboxd, I've recreated this list over there (it's here). I wish I could have recreated it on iCheckMovies, but I only have a free account and have already created my allotted one custom list.

No Back To The Future Part 3? That list is really a joke!

Professor Sir Christopher Frayling calls it a Western, so I'm kind of willing to go with it. Then again, I think Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior is basically a remake of Shane, so what do I know ?

Looks like it's already there so you can add to your watchlist:

I'm just curious as to who's buying Wild West magazine?

I don't care that it is officially a TV show, but Lonesome Dove needs to be on that list. Unforgiven is too low.

Re: Wild West Magazine's 100 greatest Westerns

A lot of Eastwood westerns are not on the list. Joe Kidd, Two Mules for Sister Sara, High Plains Drifter. Can't find Pale Rider. I remember renting that movie in the 80s so many times. Posse? lol If you are going to include dreck like that, you might as well add Bad Girls. haha

The Assassination of Jesse James is a well done recent western that should have made the list. It would be fun to go through and watch all the films on the list in order. But I would have to skip Dead Man. Gosh I hated that movie. I'm looking forward to the Red River criterion this year as well.

Where's The Lone Ranger? I don't think these people would know a good Western if it bit them on the ass.

Don't see it but I thought Nevada Smith starring Steve McQueen should have been on the list.
