Well lets hear it. Nothing like having a few beers and watching a great western.

For me personally, I love The Wild Bunch, The Searchers, Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, and Winchester 73. Currently watching One-Eyed Jacks.
 
I am a relative young pup so I missed the hay day of the westerns. That said I am a big fan of the Man with no Name trilogy. D'jango Unchained was great and even though a lot of the movie takes place in the south it does have that great spaghetti western feel to it and those opening credits are just spot on western. But my all time favorite western has to be the absolutely amazing Unforgiven!
 
Good man. Django is a masterpiece, though I'm sure that will be disputed in this thread. Unforgiven was one of the movies I was thinking of watching tonight, so great.
 
Also young pup, if there is one thing I can tell you it's The Wild Bunch. All men must watch it.
 
Westerns are my favorite. Here are some of my go-to choices:
Ulzana's Raid
3:10 To Yuma
Meek's Cutoff
Open Range
All Eastwood films

Guilty pleasures:
Young Guns
Tombstone
Rio Bravo
Cowboys and Aliens
 
I can't believe I forgot Tombstone! Love that move and growing up not far the birth place of Doc Holiday makes it that much better. The remake of 3:10 Yuma is one of the more underrated movies of the last decade I think. I liked it even better than No Country for Old Men.

Open Range is way under rated. Solid western.
 
El Dorado
True Grit
Outlaw Josey Wales
The Good the Bad and the Ugly
Two Mules for Sister Sarah
Big Jake

Not in any particular order.
 
Outlaw Jose Wales
the spaghetti westerns
True Grit
Rooster Cogburn
Treasure of the Sierra Madre
Rifleman
Gunsmoke
Unforgiven
Pale Rider
High Plains Drifter.....

Treasure of the Sierra Madre, can't believe I forgot it. One of the greatest films ever.
 
Yeah, both of the True Grit movies. Anything Eastwood did, especially Pale Rider and Outlaw Josie Wales......well, High plains drifter, too, and Unforgiven. Rio Lobo has always been one of my favs, Jack Elam was great in that. But as far as bad assed cowboyery, errr, gunfightery, Clint Eastwood simply cannot be beat.
 
My favorite westerns have to be any that has John Wayne in them. My #1 favorite, though, probably has to be a tie between "McLintock" and "The Cowboys".
 
Unforgiven
The good bad & the ugly
Tombstone
Fistful of dollars
For a few dollars more
The assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert ford
The Proposition
Big Jake
True Grit (both versions)
Rooster Cogburn
Blazing Saddles
Rio Lobo
Hondo
City Slickers
Open Range
The magnificent seven
Last man standing
Maverick
Silverado
So many more...

Good call on The Proposition.
 
Ride the High Country- another Peckinpah classic.

High Noon- Gary Cooper at his finest

Once Upon a Time in the West- the gold standard for spaghetti westerns*

As for a TV series, Have Gun - Will Travel




* Django was crap
