Your Favorite Character from a Western...

[ethiostar]

I'll take Doc Holiday. I just love the way Val Kilmer portrays him in Tombstone.

There is not just one. There are actually two. I hate to do this because John Wayne is one of my all time hero's but, I have to be honest, the best two, IMO, are Augustus McCrae and Woodrow F. Call.

These three for me.

Crowe was excellent in 3:10 To Yuma. Great movie.

indeed a great movie...but i think the gunhand was the better character.


speaking of gunhands ....Kevin Costner was pretty damn good in Open Range.

1. Josey Wales
2. Blondie from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
3. Rooster Cogburn True Grit
4. Marshall Dillon
5. Cole Thornton El Dorado

Honorable Mentions: 3:10 to Yuma, Ben Wade and Dan Evans
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

I agree with this. I think the gunhand stole the spotlight, although Crowe was pretty good as well.

I agree too.....on both accounts.

Hogan from Two Mules For Sister Sara. Wish I could show the youtube vid from blowing up the bridge.

No love for Butch and Sundance?

For me, it's John Wayne in almost any of his roles. However, Kilmer as Doc Holiday was fantastic.

I'm perhaps the only one, but....

It was good, but I liked him better in The Quick and the Dead. (spaghetti western spoof)

You obviously never saw the original if you thought that POS did it justice

You'd be William Munny out of Missouri, killer of women and children.

Val Kilmer as Doc is definitely up there.

The Riffleman for a TV show.
