Since all /tv/ ever talks about is capeshit and Sydney Sweeney, I'll take the good liberty of starting a westerns thread and ask you to contribute forthrightly.

>contribute forthrightly.
no

western thread got to bump limit or so the other day, its a fine genre to have a thread over. nothing new to report though.

>>213607691
Link?

>>213607456 (OP)
Yeah this thread won't get more than 10 replies

>>213607456 (OP)
Could a Blood Meridian movie be made if they completely got rid of Judge Holden?

>>213607456 (OP)
a guy wrote that he preffers for a few dollars more in last thread. how? it's by far the weakest movie in the trilogy and feels like proto capeshit
>>213607801
Blood Meridian sucks balls

>>213608793
I get it, fistful is a samurai flick and GBU is way over the top.

>>213609013
>GBU is way over the top.
nah, it's a classic adventure, similar to odyssey. none of the spaghetti westerns are realistic either way

>>213609134
the extra epic scenes are mostly aesthetic and pacing failures. compare to once upon a time in the west which did everything right.

>>213609150
once upon a time in the west is way bigger snooze fest

>>213607787

>>213609266
yeah, its a slow plodding thing from start to finish. knows how to manage pacing even if you dont like it.

So, what'd you think of it?

>>213607801
No. Samuel Chamberlain's book would make a great miniseries though.

>>213609352
dont think i've watched an alec baldwin movie from the past 30~ years and i definitely wont start now.

>>213607456 (OP)
so what's the best unconventional western?
I love the well-known classics and want to branch out

>>213609402
jeremiah johnson maybe. love that movie

>>213607801
I have read this book three times and do not understand why people think it couldn't be made. Are you guys that deprived of literature?

>>213609402
For me? El Topo absolutely blew my mind.

>>213609594
Its just that it would be hard and require a bit of inventiveness and creativity. And since there isnt much of that going around it would be impossible to make. Also no-one wants to pay for it. It doesnt have general audience appeal so its doomed to make "little" money.

>>213607456 (OP)
Once Upon a Time in the West is worth it for that one botched stunt fall alone, brutal stuff

>>213609607
We can talk about the good shit?

IT'S OUT??

I wish I could look this cool getting kicked out of places

>>213611807
that seems like it took way longer than using a door would have

Old Henry is pretty decent.

>>213609402
Depends what you mean by unconventional. Do you want something the is a Western but in a more unique setting that plays with the tropes of bounty hunters? Watch the Great Silence. Do you want something that isn't set in the West (or even America) but still has some of the feel of a Western? Watch Witchfinder General.

>I'm so glad we decided to settle down out west and save the white race together, anon :)

>>213612152
Based rec, Witchfinder General is absolute Vincent Price kino.

Checks out

John Ford, simple as.

>>213612492
Glad someone else here has seen it. I usually bring it up in horror threads, but it makes sense here as well.

>>213612936
It's refreshing to see Price actually play a menacing villain without any tongue in cheek goofiness, he's quite good at it.

Duck You Sucker (Giu la testa) is an underrated western and you anons should go watch it if you haven't. One of the best Morricone scores too.

For me, it's this kino
