It's not a shoot 'em up western but I love McLintock!

Also love a bunch already listed. The first part of the Lonesome Dove mini-series is some of the best dialogue ever seen in a western. It didn't hurt to have Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall playing the lead characters as only they could.

Tombstone absolutely qualifies and is a classic. I'll watch it anytime it's on, even if it's halfway through.

Rio Bravo was fantastic. Might be my favorite classic action western.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is my favorite Eastwood western.

Sheese! That McClintock flick gets aired at least 6 times a week in my A.O.
and I used to kinda like it,,,not anymore.

It's been a while since I watched it but I always enjoy The Big Country with Gregory Peck, Charlton Heston, Chuck Connors, Burl Ives, and Jean Simmons.

In terms of off beat westerns, the Trinity movies used to crack me up.

Yes, that's the ones. Terrance Hill and Bud Spencer. They were a spoof of the Italian westerns.

Hey, you mentioned Burl Ives, he really is what I would call a man's man( maybe would make a time killer thread next off season, you or somebody could start)
He wrote that " Ghost riders in the sky" song and pretty sure "Big rock candy mountain" I know he sings it, when he got older he was type casted and weather as a refined elderly grandfather ora scruff man of the road hobo he always commanded the scene by his mere presence alone
