I just saw this for the first time. I recorded it off of MGMHD and I thought it looked pretty damn good even in 720p. Fantastic film. I haven't seen a lot of westerns but I think I may need to find myself some more cattle drive/wagon train westerns. Any recommendations?

[OB1KNBE]

Anything with Clint Eastwood. But my fav is Pale Rider

[Alexias_dad]

For a few dollars more.

Er... No. Good film though.

[HelloMoto]

For a true western, I would suggest The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

For a sci-fi old school western, I would suggest Westworld. Can't remember if there is any profanity, but it was made decades ago so I would assume not a lot.

I must be the only one in the world who didn't like The Good The Bad The Ugly? I loved A fistful of Dollars and For a Few Dollars more and Once Upon a Time in the West even more.

No you're not the only one. I prefer those other movies as well: For a Few Dollars More is tops for me in the Dollars Trilogy, and Once Upon a Time in the West doesn't suffer from its bloated run-time like TGB&U does.
