  1. The Warhead Chicken The Warhead Chicken says:

    Westerns have their share of crap like every other genre but you shouldn’t dismiss them altogether, The Good The Bad and the Ugly is a good place to start. The Wild Bunch and Unforgiven are two particular favourites of mine and Once Upon a Time in the West is meant to be great as well but I’ve not got round to seeing that yet.
    My main problem with a lot of westerns is this very patriotic american thing going through them which just pisses me off, but there’s a lot of westerns concerned with very different things (as you know from Deadwood) and that don’t suffer from this at all.
