^Have you seen Circle? Fun enough watch in the same sort of vein.

Tombstone. Still my fave western even though it borrows (steals?) so heavily from Silverado.
Mike and I can ape this scene to a T. I play Ringo, him, Holliday. You really need to watch the entire flick to fully appreciate this scene.

Awesome movie. But I have the same problem with it as I do with "There Will Be Blood".
Characters like Plainview (nod, nod, wink, wink), and Little Bill, simply wouldn't have survived in the old west. Someone would have shot them in the back for being such dicks. Same could be said for Holliday, but he was a bad mother****er who was insanely lethal with a gun. And also kinda charming in a weird way. Splitting hairs here. All GREAT movies.

I do read, for what it's worth.

Tombstone sucks because Doc Holliday didn't get shot in the casino when he made the cup joke. It was a dick move and dicks didn't survive in John Wayneland. And Val Kilmer's moustache is way too small.
Characterization, not my actual opinion except for the moustache part.

Why do you have to resort to being a dismissive dick so often?
We were having a cool discourse.

Just speaking your language bro. Also it's pretty funny and a good joke>>>>>>>>your feelings every time.
And no, no we were not having a cool discourse. You got upset the second I tried to bring up something that wasn't stitched into your hat.
