Are there any Tombstone fans on the PB??
I hadn't seen this movie for over 10 years or more and recently watched it again and thoroughly enjoyed it!

I love Tombstone. My line is:

"Oh, make no mistake. It's not revenge he's after. It's a reckoning."

Way too many lines to pick a favorite . . .

That movie is like a fine cognac. It gets better with age.

Billy Clanton: Why, it's the drunk piano player. You're so drunk, you can't hit nothin'. In fact, you're probably seeing double.

Doc Holliday: [takes out a second gun] I have two guns, one for each of ya.

Great movie. My boss' brother-in-law is one of the stars, Stephen Lang (he also played Stonewall Jackson in Gods and Generals).

Oh. Johnny, I apologize. I forgot you were there. You may go now.

Yeah, great movie.

Great movie. And it has Charleton Heston in a nice tough-guy cameo. Surprised no one has mentioned: "I'm your huckleberry."

I almost really liked the movie (Val Kilmer was great), however there are 2 things that basically made it less than stellar to me:

1. Kurt Russell does not fit the mold.
2. The scene where he's walking across the river screaming, "NO!!! NO!!!" was just a bit too cheesy for my tastes.

IMHO, no Westerns can trump the following classics:

The Outlaw Josey Wales
Unforgiven
Pale Rider
High Plains Drifter

I agree with all of those, and would add Tombstone, Lonesome Dove, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly to the list.

I thought Open Range was a good movie too. Especially the gun fight!

I have yet to begin to defile mah self.

The wifey and I watch it every three or four months to keep the lines fresh. Her favorite line is "I bee yowe huckuh berry".

I have never seen this movie.

It appears that I must remedy this situation immediately.

During that gun fight...count the consecutive shots by Costner. I am almost positive he shoots more shots than the guns could hold.

Doc's line to the question, why are you out here? ...

Because he is my friend.

I don't have many.

...and the card Doc gets on his death bed.

To Doc Holiday

MY FRIEND.



This is the reason I like this movie. The Loyalty level between friends is just emotionally what people in life desire the most. A true friend. True friends are hard to come by in this world.
