Popular with the critics?  It won the Oscar for Best Picture.  It is a faaaaaaaaaaar better movie than Tombstone.

 

Also, when does something being critically acclaimed mean it's not good?  There are a lot of movies that weren't well reviewed that are great.  But I'm struggling to think of one that got well-reviewed that sucks.

It won the Oscar because Clint had never won before.

No way was it better than Tombstone.

Real Genius was pretty funny, I gotta admit lol...didn't seem like it would be at first. Not the best movie ever made but it has a ****-ton of quotable lines.

Professor Hathaway: I want to see more of you around the lab.

Chris Knight: Fine. I'll gain weight.

"You still run?"

"Only when chased"

"You didn't clean up the place?"

"Umm, no"

"Good,... because I had this filed under H for toy"

So then don't watch it as a Western. Watch it as a love story.

 

It is Bridges of Madison County set in the old west.

 

That said why no mention thus far of "Open Range", yeah it has Costner who tends to make a 4 hour movie out of a 90 min flick, but it is a good gritty no frills western. One of my favs now.

Still Tombstone is awesome, great memorable larger than life characters, western macho attitudes, shoot outs and some classic dialogue.

"Take care of him. He's one of the 10 finest minds in the country!"

"Some day I hope to be two of them."

 

 

"Can you hammer a 6 inch spike through a board with your penis?"

"Not right now..."

 

 

"Something strange happened to me this morning.."

"Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of Sun-God robes on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?"

"No."

"...Why am I the only person who has that dream?"

Yeah, and damn what anyone else thinks. I'll fight to the death for Tombstone's honor.
