    Only one comes to mind: The Cowboys. I'm not much of a western movie fan, although I do enjoy some anime with western-type elements in them (like Cowboy Bebop, which features bounty hunters like in the Old West).

    Guess kiddies have no love for the western movie genre in 2020. Like b&w films, past relic and garlic to a vampire, er ..today’s audience.

    Considering how much I enjoy Westerns, not enough. I've got the relevant Ford, Peckinpah, Eastwood and Leone, but it gets a bit spotty after that: Little Big Man, Hombre, Dances with Wolves, McCabe and Mrs Miller, Tell Them Willie Boy is Here, Man from Laramie, Naked Spur, Open Range, the Son of the Morning Star miniseries, Black Robe, 3:10 to Yuma (both, but the original is by far the best), Appaloosa, One Eyed Jacks, Bad Day at Black Rock, Jeremiah Johnson, True Grit (Bridges' version), Comanche Station, Wind River, Thunderheart, Wyatt Earp, Shane, The Ox-Bow Incident, Rio Bravo, High Noon, Warlock, Eagle's Wing, Last of the Mohicans (the Mann version), Hell or High Water, Geronimo (Walter Hill). And Way OuT West and Go West, my second least favourite Marx movie).

    Not many at all. I've always found westerns to be too macho for my blood. I actually like them better now than I did when I was younger. I like the Sergio Leone trilogy pretty well. I guess I'll read up on suggestions here. Not a John Wayne fan at all for reasons I won't get into here.

  15. About 32. I love a good western.

    And why the hell aren't The Naked Spur and Open Range on Blu-ray? :cussing:

    I have 105 western titles (Blu's & DVDs) & counting. Of course many of the classics are in my collection. I don't consider the Revenant a western, others do, that's cool. My favorite "modern" western is Kirk Douglas's "Lonely Are the Brave".

    I had "Posse" on VHS but don't know where it went.

    Revenant.. more pioneering early 19th Century.
    The Indian chase at the beginning was exiting stuff.

    Just out of the ones I have out on my shelves, I have 52 of them (more than that actually, as some of them are multi-packs of Westerns).

    Plus, upstairs with all of my boxed DVDs, I probably have another 50.

    So, offhand, I'd say I own in the range of 100 Western movies.

    A very good film no doubt.

    But can a Civil War film be considered a Western? They're in the same era, but geographically, they're quite far apart in their location and story-wise they are different too.

    I like only Spaghetti Westerns, not the US ones.

    Oh, and I love McCabe and Mrs. Miller, as it is an anti-Western.
