Great Movies what say you?

[Hatch]

Some good movies listed. Tombstone was very well done. Val Kilmer stole the movie as a supporting actor....... "why Johnny Ringo...you look like someone just walked over your grave." Open Range was another good movie. excellent acting and dialogue. My Cousin Vinny is an interesting movie the two "utes" were rightfully found not guilty.

I’m one of those rare people that prefer Wyatt Earp over Tombstone. While I totally understand the love for Val Kilmer and his portrayal of Holiday, Dennis Quaid did a pretty darn good job as well.

Wyatt Earp is probably more historically accurate….but Tombstone is just so damn entertaining. Kilmer’s Doc is a masterpiece.

You and me both.

I never realized how much of a minority I was in preferring WE over Tombstone.

I really liked Quaid's portrayal of Doc, but Kilmer was equally as enjoyable.

I just find Tombstone to be a little cheesy.

I forgot to mention the Dead Zone, one of my favorites when I was young. "The Ice Is Gonna Break" Walken is the best

Not a movie person . . . Sports and News and the way News is going pretty much only sports . . .

I watch News Max only now. About the only one you can trust.

[CajunProud]

Two great baseball movies that I haven’t seen on a list:

The Natural
8 men out

In my opinion, The Natural is the best baseball movie, just edging out Field of Dreams.
