Whatever he wants? If they do another Bob Stoops segment then they are definitely grooming UMs replacement on the show.

The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada is a great movie.  Might not fit squarely in the genre but I don’t care it’s awesome.

8th grade English class. Teacher was going to show the class Shane. Well, oops, she accidentally rented "Shame", which is porn. It stayed on for about 10 seconds.

Watched Big Noon earlier and Urban Meyer is now just trolling us. First he wears a "Yellow Rose of Texas" tie and now he wears the "Luck of the Irish" tie. These two ties were not some kind of coincidence. Its' a troll job.

the AFI top 10 list will disappoint many.

How the West was Won?

Magnificent Seven?

noop.

Hollywood's cynical bitchassedness is no more evident than the failure to preserve the innovative experimental processes like Cinerama, Vistavision, IMAX, etc.  More than half of the 70mm IMAX domes have been demolished or converted to giant flat digital projection touted as "better" and "the most advanced in the world".

How the West was Won was 1 of only 2 films made with the 3-strip Cinerama process.   There may be a couple of people on this board who saw it in the theater in 1962 in Cinerama.

Anyway, Westerns....

Yeah I had looked away and then just heard the tail end of her saying something about Coach submitting his resignation. WTF? Anyone hear the whole quote?

So Minnesota is down 33 players, out of conference championship contention, yet they are still playing... 

As long as you have a paddle, keep rowing the boat. 

The Wolverines obviously aren't as committed as the Gophers.

Great movie. Wasn’t sure if it qualified as a Western, but there’s Texas Rangers chasing bank robbers, shootouts, and even a cattle drive scene so it should qualify.

I stand up for savory kolaches and the millions who call them that and now I’m a processed food loving rube? That hurts, sir. 

I’m actually making beef bourguignon for dinner tonight using Julia Child’s recipe, but using brisket. Trust me, look it up, it’s ridiculously good.

He’s the thirstiest motherfucker on this thread, that is for damned sure. The DMs he’s sending @troph and @Nicole44 are probably terrifying and might need to be sent to the authorities.

Lulz. Every time I see your avatar, I think of the movie Ruthless People. Underrated film. At any rate, my dad is in one of the last sequences of that film. Wearing a UT baseball cap. Right where Bette Midler''s character is arguing with Danny DeVito's on the pier and kicks him off. My dad went for a walk to see the ocean. this guy (who was an extra in the film with spiked blue hair) says,, "Dude you can't be over here. We are filming a movie." My dad says, "Fuck you. I came to see the ocean. I am from Texas. Fuck you." Guy relents. So in the top right corner of the scene, there is this guy with a white t-shirt and white UT cap just leaning over the pier.

I love the story. @IDIOTsavant ‘s avatar always makes me think of “Other People’s Money”. Devito gives one of the greatest speeches ever put on film in that movie and it never gets much play because of how well Michael Douglas covered the same subject matter as Gordon Gekko.

If there is such a thing as a modern day western, this movie fits it to a T. The interaction between Pine and Bridges at the end is greatness and the speech Chris Pine’s character gives as to why he did what he did is pretty much how I’ve viewed climbing out of the gutter my entire conscious life.
