Topic: Movie cowboy shootout Posted: 23-May-2011 at 15:18 |
Your list of favorite gunmen is missing one famous one, who might well out do all of them. He was played by Richard Boone, and the name of the TV show was "Have Gun, will travel", his screen name was Paladin!
http://www.bing.com/videos/watch/video/have-gun-will-travel-closing-credits/b3269c3157f56cb5fd48b3269c3157f56cb5fd48-881470735515?cpkey=ee980ff99d7b92a20d23ee980ff99d7b92a20d23-820459079125%7Cvideos%20of%20%22have%20gun%20will%20travel%22%7C%7C&q=videos%20of%20%22have%20gun%20will%20travel%22
He might well have been the toughest, baddest, meanest, and most Knightly" of all?

From the rear, Klaus Kinski creeps out and blows his nameless head off with a rare turkish fowling piece. |
How come the Duke didn't make your final three? And wouldn't Klaus Kinski dissolve in the sunlight?

The Duke definitely played a tough game, beat the robot to the draw, but the bullets just mushroomed on the metal chestplate, giving just enough time for the bald one to head-but the duke and break his nose, severely. As his eyes watered and the blood flowed, he didn't notice the very short Harmonica creep up and shoot him under the chin. Fortunately for Klaus, he was wearing dark glasses and didn't notice it was daytime. The power of mental suggestion proven again.

What about the other three lawmen? Roy wears the white hat, Henry has almost 40 years gunfighting experience, and Kevin is a tree-dwelling mailman who could easily go postal with a longbow, broadsword or Tommy gun

Roy is currently in federal custody in Abilene where the GJ is investigating alleged monkey business with Trigger.
Hank was called back by Jimmy Stewart to run the cathous in Cheyenne as he is to gawdamn old for that nonsense.
The harmonica guy is having problems with his sexual identity as verified by his walking off and leaving Claudia Cardinale...to be a pass around for the RR. What an idiot.
And Kevin has been recalled to Water world....where he can find his actual amphib roots. And then write his version of the Alex Halley classic.

CV, older cowboys tend to the most dangerous. You'd have to be a skilled gunfighter to reach that age

Nah Nick...skilled gunfighter has actually little to do with...... what makes the difference is nerve and an 'I don't give a shit attitude' coupled with a certain percentage of bullshitis and subterfuge....once you have reached a certain age.
Because a 10 gauge express at 30 paces will take the starch out of anybody.
That's all the compensation one needs to deal with a Walker Navy or Colt....at that range
The Duke knew that as well.....and I know....... because I am old cowboy.

What if Kid Shaleen came to town (with his underage hooker girlfriend Sissy but minus the Dirty Dozen)?

The Kid was only sober once then got off a lucky shot....Rooster on the other hand was a killer especially when drunk...this is the other side of John Wesley Hardin.
