I have a top ten that I consider to be " cowboy / westerns" In the last two years I've been liking the lite versions Of the genre. Like Big Hand for a Little Lady, Maverick, Support your local Sheriff, Support your local gun Fighter, The Cheyanne Social Club, Rounders. I dislike civil war movies and Mexican American war movies. Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency. Neck Ties, Hats and ammo brass, Never ,ever touch'em w/o asking first | |||

Good Westerns should also have saloon girls, beans and lots of them by the campfire, slimy scoundrels masquerading as public servants, some rustling and horse thefts, maybe some sodbusters and sheepherders, wagon trains...and panoramic vistas that stir the soul. Movies of the Oregon, Santa Fe, and California trails and legends; Westerns. War movies set before 1865, not so much to me. Just my thoughts; this thread helped remind me that my SASS membership renewal hadn't made it to me yet by mail. Somehow it went missing months ago. | |||

It isn't. There's nothing scientific about it. What genre is Star Wars? Simple to determine, just describe it in one sentence. Here goes. A farm boy learns to use magic from a wizard and teams up with a couple of scoundrels in order to break into a fortress of doom and rescue a princess from a dark lord. Star Wars is a fairy tale. I hate offended people. They come in two flavours - huffy and whiny - and it's hard to know which is worst. The huffy ones are self-important, narcissistic authoritarians in love with the sound of their own booming disapproval, while the whiny, sparrowlike ones are so annoying and sickly and ill-equipped for life on Earth you just want to smack them round the head until they stop crying and grow up. - Charlie Brooker | |||
