All good quotes. Some of my favorites from that film are:

Ten Bears: These things you say we will have, we already have.
Josey Wales: That's true. I ain't promising you nothing extra. I'm just giving you life and you're giving me life. And I'm saying that men can live together without butchering one another.
Ten Bears: It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. ...

Lone Watie: Get ready, little lady. Hell is coming to breakfast.

And: Lone Watie: We thought about it for a long time, "Endeavor to persevere." And when we had thought about it long enough, we declared war on the Union.

Lone Watie was based on the actual historical character of Stand Watie who was the last Confederate General to surrender.

The Outlaw Josey Wales is great.

Josey Wales: When I get to likin' someone, they ain't around long.
Lone Watie: I notice when you get to DISlikin' someone they ain't around for long neither.

Lone Watie: I didn't surrender, but they took my horse and made him surrender. They have him pulling a wagon up in Kansas I bet.


Fletcher: Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining.

Bounty hunter: You're wanted, Wales.
Josey Wales: Reckon I'm right popular. You a bounty hunter?
Bounty hunter: A man's got to do something for a living these days.
Josey Wales: Dyin' ain't much of a living, boy.

Captain Terrill: (speaking of Josey Wales) Not a hard man to track. Leaves dead men wherever he goes.

Lone Watie: ...here in the nation they call us the "civilized tribe". They call us "civilized" because we're easy to sneak up on. White men have been sneaking up on us for years.

I haven't seen the movies you mentioned, but the ones I have seen -- and liked -- were; Dances with Wolves, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, For Love of the Game, and of course, Open Range. Field of Dreams wasn't bad either.

Silverado, No Way Out, and you cannot forget Kevin Costner's most demanding role in The Big Chill.

I haven't seen those. Maybe I should. Ya think?

Well, you don't have to see The Big Chill because all of Costner's scenes that showed his face were cut. All that's left is his role as the corpse. That was a joke.

Silverado, though, is a movie that is halfway between the "old style" western movie with clear cut bad guys and good guys and modern westerns, with Kevin Costner playing an extremely delightful supporting role. The more I think about it, the more everyone should see this movie. Scott Glenn, Kevin Kline, Kevin Costner, Danny Glover, John Cleese, Rosanna Arquette, Brian Dennehy, Jeff Fahey, Jeff Goldblum, Linda Hunt. That's a lot of good actors for one western.

No Way Out was a good movie, I thought. Now, a lot of the plot devices and such may have been copied and used by others since that movie, but I do recommend it. I think it was the movie that graduated him to bonafide leading man, though for some reason I remember it being released before The Untouchables, and evidently I'm wrong about that.

If nothing else, Silverado is quite a lot of fun ... with some good actors. Very entertaining.

And my favorite lines:

Hobart: Baxter! Hawley! Where the hell've you been? You're late ....
Emmett: I'm afraid it is a bad start, friend, 'cause my name ain't Baxter, he ain't Hawley.
Hobart: You're not Baxter?
Emmett: Name's Emmett.
Hobart: You're not Baxter either?
Paden: No, I'm not *Hawley*.

[SIZE="3"]Love a good western. The last one I really enjoyed was Open Range. I guess I'll keep going back to The Magnificent Seven and Ride the High Country and The Wild Bunch until, as the song says, the real thing comes along.[/SIZE]

Unforgiven? Once Upon a Time in the West?

Once Upon a Time in the West can get a little tedious to watch because it is so long, but it still is one of my favorites, especially the opening scene.

Unforgiven is a great movie, but it is not an easy movie to watch multiple times. In a way, it takes itself too seriously, I think.

I liked Pale Rider more than Unforgiven, but High Plains Drifter is my favorite of Eastwood's westerns.
