there was a samauri remake of unforgiven

Some trivia from my home town, Huntington WV, they filmed We Are Marshall there with Matthew McConaughey, we were surprised during the filming to drive through Huntington to see the Keith Albee theater with Kelly's Heroes on the marquee. Apparently the movie was showing during the plane crash that claimed most of the Marshall football team (1970).

Kelly's Heroes is hands-down my favorite Clint Eastwood film. I want to just list all the stuff I absolutely love about it, but every bit of it would be spoilers for Ash if she ever does the movie.

Then there's Unforgiven, Pale Rider, High Plains Drifter, and a slew of other great Eastwood films, like the Dirty Harry series (fun fact: when Dirty Harry was made, the S&W Model 29 wasn't a popular gun, because it was overpowered - the sort of thing you carry in Bear Country, for when you need to persuade a grizzly to leave you alone, and the production crew had trouble getting a model 29 for the film. Incidentally, that same year, Charles Bronson made Death Wish, where he carried only a .32 S&W long revolver, but once Eastwood made mainstream the pursuit of power that previously only people like Elmer Keith cared about, and Death Wish 3 made a point of mentioning the .475 Wildey Magnum was more powerful than .44 magnum.

Eastwood made a number of great westerns, like Yojimbo... I mean... A Fistful of Dollars, which is a spiritual remake (not to say "ripoff") of Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo, also remade as Last Man Standing with Bruce Willis, and Omega Doom with Rutger Hauer.

There is a Bronson movie that scared me.....I think it was 10 to midnight.....the naked guy killer.

there are a number of these westerns Mr. Eastwood made in Italy hence the moniker spagetii western, I thought "The High Plains Drifte"r was the best.

Talking about Bronson I would love to see a reaction to Death Wish.

If you want to see Eastwood in a complete departure from the norm check out Every Which Way but Loose. You won't be disappointed.

I haven't seen many people mention it, but I would love to see a Truman Show reaction. I can only imagine the existential crisis that movie must bring to a YouTuber lmao

I've got two versions (theatrical and extended) showing on my feed.

"What happened to the dog, Payton?"

Silverado has the best cast. Kevin Costner, Danny Glover, Scott Glenn, Kevin Kline, Jeff Goldblum, Brian Dennehy, Linda Hunt, Lynn Whitfield.....it moves well too.

Powers209

really cool. Guess I can ask for The Outlaw Josey Wales.

"Silverado" is easily the best modern western. I double-up-vote it! ;) There's a quirky western with Charles Bronson (you really need some Bronson films in your polls) and Toshiro Mifune. It's "Red Sun" from 1971. Not many people saw it, but I thought the blending of an outlaw with a samurai in what we'd call a "buddy-cop" film was really great.

Secondhand Lions? I am so stoked for that.

Two things I'd love you to react to after seeing this... The Good the Bad and the Ugly by the Danish Philharmonic Orchestra. Trust me! Would be a quick easy watch and I think you'd love how they do it. Kelly's Heroes from 1970 (not a Western). Just a fun watch and more of Mr Eastwood in his prime. Costars are an incredible all star cast. One of my favorites.
