Watching The Outlaw Josey Wales. Eastwood = the ultimate free range pimp.

The spaghetti series are classics. Kelley Heroes is a favorite of mine too... and of course the D Harry group.

Yup. Got 'em all. I dig the Wayne style westerns too. Everything from Hondo to North to Alaska. But something about the troubled protagonist just makes it better, and Eastwood always shined in it.

My dad has read everything LL ever wrote. I've actually read Hondo myself.

Definitely never read it. But I dig the hell out of those old Wayne westerns. They are more accurate about native American life than the school textbooks.

Bit off topic, but I dig that Springsteen quote "We learned more from a 3-minute record than we ever did in school".

A handful of staples from the 50's and 60's, but mainly stuff from the 70's to present. Some mainstream and some Indie. These days I seem to lean more and more on the latter.

Oh. I thought you were afraid of another ban hammer because you were gonna throw in an unpopular opinon like the Black Christmas remake being better than the original or something.

The bots come in waves. I deleted like 20 in the last couple days. Before that it had been a week or two before I'd even seen one.

What is this "Black Christmas"? Frankly it sounds kind of made up. :P

For what it's worth few remakes are worth more than toilet paper.

Pretty difficult to find anyone who thinks otherwise, especially on here. I am out of touch with modernity, but I have the suspicion that the general public today see remakes without the awareness that they are actually remakes. IT is an obvious exception. But My Bloody Valentine? The Fog? I don't know if the general public realizes they're not watching the originals.
