Odd, I shot down 3 Spitfire Is last night, all at the same field and all laggy boogers too.

You need to leave the training arena and come play in our yard.

Don't get "huckleberry" confused with "dingleberry" Mr.Hortland. :cool:

He kinda mumbles the middle word.  The more I watch it.. the more it sounds like "I'm here huckleberry".  Anyone have the DVD handy that can post a .wav of this?

Tombstone was a great film....I was so impressed with Val Kilmner in it...he played a great Doc Holiday and a great "Lunger"!

Post by: Apache on April 25, 2002, 10:31:51 AM

He actually said, "I'm your Huckleberry"

"Huckleberry" was commonly used in the 1800's in conjunction with "persimmon" as a small unit of measure. "I'm a huckleberry over your persimmon" meant "I'm just a bit better than you." As a result, "huckleberry" came to denote idiomatically two things. First, it denoted a small unit of measure, a "tad," as it were, and a person who was a huckleberry could be a small, unimportant person--usually expressed ironically in mock self-depreciation. The second and more common usage came to mean, in the words of the "Dictionary of American Slang: Second Supplemented Edition" (Crowell, 1975):

I have a wav file of it if ya want it.

Bah, the best movie quote of all times is when Clint Eastwood enters the bar at the end of "Unforgiven".

That entire scene is hard to top actually.

"Yes I am William Munny, and I have killed women and children. I've killed practically anyting that walks or crawls at one time or another. And now I'm gonna kill you."

Title: Cowards !!
Post by: SirLoin on April 25, 2002, 11:08:01 AM

Tombstone,one of the best westerns and Val Kilmer's greatest one liner/movie..

Loved the "Unforgiven". However, in that final shootout, the editors used film from several different angles and the net result was Munny firing 8 rounds from a six-shot Smith & Wesson break-top revolver without reloading. Moreover, a Spencer Carbine was probably the worst rifle to use for long range shooting. Low muzzle velocity rimfire round, short barrel. Still, this film is at the top of my list.

My favorite westerns (with star rating):

BTW, I'm sure there's a few I have not included that should be here.

The Unforgiven *****
Shane *****
Silverado ****
True Grit ****
She Wore a Yellow Ribbon ****
Outlaw Josey Wales ****
Tombstone ****
Wyatt Earp ****
The Big Country ****
Fort Apache ***
The Horse Soldiers ***
Stagecoach ***
The Searchers ***
Quigley Down Under ***

Best Western candidate is Rustlers Rapsody.

What other western ever tackled the question of being a confident heterosexual?

"yup"

Post by: SageFIN on April 25, 2002, 03:50:28 PM

The best western is obviously Kurosawa's The Seven Samurai, even though it's more like an eastern or so.

Post by: Airscrew on April 25, 2002, 04:32:15 PM

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

Title: Cowards !!
Post by: funkedup on April 25, 2002, 04:36:45 PM

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"?

Post by: Arfann on April 25, 2002, 04:38:36 PM

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!".

Title: Cowards !!
Post by: midnight Target on April 25, 2002, 04:49:57 PM

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.

Title: Cowards !!
Post by: Killjoy2 on April 25, 2002, 05:01:26 PM

I nominate this thread for...

Best Hi-jack!

Title: Cowards !!
Post by: Squire on April 25, 2002, 05:05:17 PM

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."

Title: Cowards !!
Post by: Airscrew on April 25, 2002, 09:27:01 PM

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"

Title: Cowards !!
Post by: SunKing on April 25, 2002, 09:50:47 PM

can't believe nobody has mentioned the greatest western movie ever   "The Good, The Bad, The Ugly".

Title: Cowards !!
Post by: Aub on April 25, 2002, 10:08:21 PM

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"

Post by: Slash27 on April 25, 2002, 11:30:13 PM

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

Funked, apparently Kurosawa was heavily influenced by John Ford... so I guess things go full circle.

Not to mention that some of Kirosawa's best work was based on Shakespeare (Ran=King Lear, Throne of Blood=Macbeth). Ran was my favorite. Freakin epic man epic. lol.
