WideWing, I concure with your list but I would add a few more

Anything with Clint Eastwood no matter how bad
Fistful of Dollars
Hangem high
Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Two Mules for Sister Sara
etc
The Magnificent Seven (Best line?  "We want the man that gave him those scars")

The Man Who Loved Cat Dancing
Bandalero (sp?) Dean Martin, Jimmy Stewart, Raquel Welch,         George Kennedy

Sons of Katie Elder
The Cowboys
The Shootist
(damn probably just about anything with John Wayne in it)
Rio Bravo
The War Wagon
The Undefeated

The Quick and the Dead
My Name is Nobody (good Henry Fonda western)
The Wild Bunch
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

there are so many

SageFin- Do you know that "Magnificent Seven" was a remake of Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai"?

Also "Fistful of Dollars" was a remake of Kurosawa's "Yojimbo".  Eastwood pretty much played that same ronin character throughout the rest of his career in Westerns.  

So yeah, they should call them "Easterns".  :)

PS You know that "Star Wars" was based on Kurosawa's "Hidden Fortress"?

Only two good westerns ever made. "Zacharia, A Head of His Time" and "Blazing Saddles".   Best line: "You can't do that, I'm the Mayor!"  "Better stay away from my horse, he ain't seen a mare in 6 months!".

The best line ever in a Western...

True Grit

The Duke puts the reigns in his teeth, spurs his horse while cocking a winchester and says "Fill your hand you son-of-a-squeak"....it don't get any better 'n that.

That was a great line, but Robert Duvall sets it up well with "Thats bold talk for a one eyed fat man" just before. Great film.

Tombstone and Outlaw Josey Wales deserve a much higher placing than Silverado though. I liked Silverado but it was more of as good "B" movie.

Actually I rank OJW as my #1 western "Well are you going to pull those pistols or whistle dixie?" that was a great scene!!!

And when the granny and her grandaughter are being led away by the bad guys and they see OJW ride up, the Native Chief turns to her and says "Take heart granny, hells just come to breakfast".

Clint rules!

Regards.

Although True Grit was great, Marion's best one liner is from The War Wagon

Kirk Douglas and John Wayne have just kilt two mean hombres outside of the town stable.

Kirk Douglas turns to John Wayne and sez' "Mine hit the ground first."

John Wayne begins re-holstering his shootin' iron, glances over at Kirk Douglas and sez' "Mine was taller."

Ahh Tombstone, gotta luv it.

Wish I had Kilmer's southern arictocrat accent. Way cooler than hblair's bama redneck ;)

Some of my favorite lines in addition to the huckleberry and daisy lines:

Doc: "Does this mean we're not friends anymore? If we weren't friends I dont think I could bear it."

Wyatt: "Go on skin that smokewagon and see what happens"

And when that guy Billy(I think) comes out to blast Wyatt and suddenly realizes who he's dealing with.
Doc: "Why Billy, I forgot you were there. You may go now."

Another good line from Tombstone, and one of the top best lines in a western or almost any movie.

When Kurt Russell challenges Billy Bob at the Fargo(sp?) table,
and slaps hard across the face and Billy Bob thinks about pulling his gun.  "You gonna do sumthin or just stand there and bleed"

My favorite line from 'Tombstone' was when there was about to be a riot outside the bar and one of the baddies tells Doc Holliday he cant even see straight, hes probably seeing doubles...

Doc Holliday pulls out a second gun and says "I've got a gun for the both of ya"

i believe it was " i have two guns, one for each of you".
was'nt the game called "pharoh" not " Fargo"?  i dont know,just asking.
favorite line  is when Doc says to Ike " maybe pokers just not your game. i know, lets have a spelling contest!" :D
off to watch Tombstone now
