Oh yeah! Big fan of Clint Eastwood.

Tied for number one on my list, just because of the sheer number of quotable lines.

"They call us civilized because we are easy to sneak up on."

"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."

"Whenever I get to likin' someone, they ain't around long."
"I notice when you get to dislikin' someone they ain't around for long neither."

Tied with "The Magnificent Seven" 1960 (I'm a Western fan, what can I say), just for sheer star power and memorable lines ("Let 'er buck.", "You elected? No. I got nominated real good.", "We deal in lead friend.", "If God didn't want them sheered he would not have made them sheep."

and "The Shootist" (because John Wayne's last picture and even mentioned his cancer, the gunhandling and gunfighting (and the philosophy of gunfighting, "It isn't always being fast or even accurate that counts. It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger. I won't.") was portrayed more realistically than the hollywood norm, and because the older I get, the more I identify with J.B.

"I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them."

(When J.B. Books (John Wayne) arrives at Dr. E.W. Hostetler's (James Stewart) office, Hostetler mentions that it has been 15 years since they last saw each other. The inside joke is that Wayne and Stewart last worked together on The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962), 15 years before.)

Magnificent Seven has a special place in my heart as the first movie I played Every SIngle Time with. That movie was written by a communist jew, and I spotted it in the first scene.

I was watching it fir the first time after being jewpilled. After that fist scene where they were trying to bury the injun in the White cemetery, my ears perked up, and I said, "Wait a second. Is this antiwhite racism propaganda?" Sure enough. Every. Single. Time.

Road Warrior

Dirty Little Billy with Michael J Pollard in the title role and Richard Evans as Goldie.

Wrestling movie Mad Bull with Alex Karras in the title role and Steve Sandor as The White Knight, the midget actor who played The White Knight's trainer should have received the Oscar for best supporting actor.

I came here to say Tombstone.

Take a peek at James Cameron's Strange Days, circa 1992

Ooh, I’m afraid that’s not my style. I don’t care for any sci-fi type stuff. Thanks though.😜

[ - ] observation1 4 points 9 monthsJul 10, 2023 02:07:21 ago (+4/-0)

Wouldn't really call it sci fi.

Depicts a world not any different than Los Angeles today but people are addicted to life-like youtube videos. Good script. The music, all-star-cast, and atmosphere, are all unworldly. It does have some unnecessary lewd scenes, however.

Tell me you're a boomer, without telling me you're a bommer.

My parents are boomers. I’m too young for that.
