I love westerns. When I was young westerns were everywhere, now unless you watch a rerun your out of luck. Once in a while there will be a western movie made, but not nearly enough for me. How about you, should they bring the western back? I love a man in a cowboy hat.

Mosy definaely, I like westerns too. I keep hoping they will bring them back, with the special affects they have nowdays it would be neat to see a guy on horseback running from a tornado on the big screan and that kind of stuff.

Thank you for your reply:
Special effects could be neat. But I would hope the would keep the content clean, if you know what I mean.

Oh yes! I love westerns too! I have the western channel on cable tv so I can watch the old western movies and tv shows whenever I want to. The westerns are great! They definitely should make more western movies and tv shows! I love the old western tv shows such as Bonanza, The Big Valley, Gunsmoke, Maverick, Rawhide, The Rifleman, Honey West, Wagon Train, The Wild, Wild West, Wyatt Earp, Death Valley Days, etc etc.

I don't have cable so I don't get that channel, wish I did. Watch one for me. Thanks.

I agree that there are too few modern westerns being made - although 3:10 to Yuma was a good remake.

I am not sure though whether there is enough public demand to make that many westerns nowadays

Thank you for replying:
I agree 3:10 to Yuma was good. I like Russel Crowe. I also agree that there might not be enough public demand. Everyone seems to like the reallity shows. Not me, they can keep them.

I wouldn't say I was a big fan of Westerns,but I liked the Spaghetti westerns,The Magnificent 7,John Wayne,all the classics..
On the subject of Western comebacks-Have You heard of the "Firefly" TV Series? This series had a big western influence,but It's in the science fiction genre..The Future Frontier depicted here is represented by the (Some Desert) outer planets of a system (the 'verse,)with not necessarily lawless folk trying to survive without a "Big Brother" society telling them what to do and how to do it..the series was cancelled,but it had such popularity a Movie got made based on it! (Serenity) There are no Aliens-Humanity has moved outwards,bringing only their own problems,those recognisable to Western fans...
www.imdb.com/title/tt0303461/
The series is available as a DVD set,and good sales of the set is encouraging interest in more movies being made..

As a child I was always watching them, especially on a Saturday when dad was out playing golf, I would feel so adult allowed to watch television on my own and being able to watch what I wanted to watch. John Wayne and Clint Eastwood were my favourites, make my day punk LOL! I always looked forward to those precious Saturdays when I had the television to myself. A big stetson and I always felt sorry for those poor horses that fell over when the cowboys were fighting the indians, I didn't care about who got killed I was more concerned about the horses, as a child I was more worried about those animals!


myLot reputation of 97/100. ebberts (725)  4 years ago

No kidding, I'm the same way even now. I will still comment, I hope that horse didn't get hurt. I love clint Eastwood to, Rawhide. It was one of my favorites. John Wayne is allways good. Thanks for your reply.
