Why they gotta have so many John Wayne movies on late at night? First McLintlock now The Shootist. I got shit to do tomorrow damnit.
 
I've been up all night and have 2 essays, a screenplay, a revised assignment and 2 books of annotation to do... Oh shit, Christmas shopping and need to rebook that appointment and that class.. Oh dear..
 
You like westerns too,I like them bcuz of that old lingo they use to talk,those old cowboy movies they use to say the coldest shit.
 
It's a refreshing look into the way things were once even if it's only a 50 year old movie portraying 120 years ago. I spent hours of my childhood in silence with my great grampa watching old westerns. Only time I'd see his eyes moist.

Though that's not the proudest moment or subject in American history, I'd like to see that I think. Never heard of it. Is it a made for tv movie? Speaking of which, how bout lonesome dove? That movie almost made me depressed it was over.

I always wondered what they thought of American westerns in the uk. As for real history goes, what happened in 19th century USA was like nothing else in world history. I'm sure it can be appreciated world wide, or at least should be. :)
 
I remember when deadwood first came out I watched first couple episodes but fell off for some reason. Is it worth getting the DVDs?

Speaking of more current shows, has anybody seen Hell on Wheels? It's a good one, in my opinion. Finished the first season not long ago.

As will I with deadwood. I'm suprised you've never seen it. There is several movies, all prequels and sequels none that the original actors are in though. I'd have to say it's my favorite western movie experience of all time. It's amazing that it was made as a tv mini series. Especially one of Duvalls best accomplishments, don't make em likenhim no more.
