[BirdManMike]

1-5. Blazing Saddles.

 

[The Hedgehog]

1. Unforgiven

 

[Art Vandeley]

Tombstone by default as it’s the only one I’ve seen

 

[Treeshark]

1. The Good, The Bad and The Ugly (The score is #1 of any movie ever in my opinion)

2. Outlaw Josey Wales

I like Tombstone, High Plains Drifter, the other Dollar trilogy movies, no particular order. I’ve never seen The Unforgiven in its entirety, sounds like I need to give it a watch.

If Unforgiven is not in your top 5 (should be #1), you should rethink your life.

“Bob, if I ever see you again, I’m just gonna start shooting and figure it’s self defense.”

If Unforgiven is not in your top 5 (should be #1), you should rethink your life.

You know I've seen the whole movie but pieces at a time over years I need to work on watching it from start to finish.

Buy a ribeye and a potato and set aside a night to watch it without distraction.

 

[Big Slick]

1. The Cowboys
2. Big Jake
3. Open Range
4. Winchester ‘73
5. McClintock

 

[HuntTalk Freak]

1. Lonesome Dove
2. The Searchers
3. Everything else is debatable

Some great movies posted already but those are the top two and anyone who disagrees is wrong. I could argue Jeremiah Johnson or even the Revenant could be the third, or Dances with Wolves but many don’t view those as Westerns.

I’m into Neo Westerns:

2. No Country for Old Men
3. Sicario
4. Hell or High Water
5. The Missing

 

[Treeshark]

One addition, one that I did not expect I would enjoy at all but did: 3:10 to Yuma (the Russel Crowe/Christian Bale one).

2. No Country for Old Men

While in my mind none of these are westerns this is probably my favorite movie of all time.
