The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly [In reply to] Can't Post

Widely considered to be the best Western ever made, its influence extends into virtually every action movie made since. And Ennio Morricone's score was groundbreaking.

If you've ever seen either Kurusawa's Yojimbo or its sequel Sanjuro then I would recommend you check out A Fistful of Dollars which is a remake of the former. If you like that, you should also see For a Few Dollars More.

Once Upon a Time in the West rivals the reputation of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

A Fist Full Of Paintballs [In reply to] Can't Post

I prefer Community's homage to Sergio Leone. Laugh

The director of this episode, Joe Russo, was hired to direct Captain America: The Winter Soldier because of it.

Even the opening credits and music were changed to imitate those of a Leone Western. Cool

Minority – so far [In reply to] Can't Post

I picked “Once Upon a Time in the West”, just very slightly over “Good, Bad, Ugly”.

I love the opening scene where Elam has it out with the fly.

And those five-minute close-ups of Bronson’s eyes – with that haunting sound-track.

I’ve got the music from both movies on the hard-drive in my car…

Still hoping for the Community movie. Hopefully directed by Russo.
