Is the Film Room into Westerns?

Assault on Precinct 13 is a western in a way too. It's basically a remake of Rio Bravo

i love the original 3:10 to yuma, i dont remember ever seeing the russel crow version

shane might be my favorite, but sometimes i like wild bunch more

as for tv, i think i have seen every episode of bonanza, rawhide, and rifleman. i also like some episodes of gunsmoke, big valley, bat masterson, wanted dead or alive, and wagon train

in general i am not a fan of the modern stuff, though i would love to see what today's more talented directors can do. django had some good western moments, but i think a sequel would give that story more room to be a full western. true grit had some great acting by the 3 leads

as much as i love westerns i never got into john wayne movies.
was he really that great????
if yes, which of his movies would you suggest to novice of his movies???

im not a big fan of him either but stagecoach and the searchers are worth seeing

I watch the Rifleman every Saturday morning on AMC and need to start getting into more westerns. The acting is kind of horrid but I'm still fascinated by it.

shyt was beast mode in the final scene ken watanbe plays the eastwood as an ex samurai

it's still a western though by all means, that's what makes it cool

Appaloosa was a real underrated gem if you only like newer joints.
