Recently the Lambcast held a western movie draft, with competitors Nick, Will, Kristen, DJ and Howard all vying to create the best team of westerns, and now it’s time for you to vote for your favourite team! You can listen to the show here: http://lambcast.podomatic.com/entry/2016-09-25T18_49_39-07_00 and here are the teams:
DJ’s Team: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, Unforgiven, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Django Unchained, The Magnificent Seven (1960), High Noon
Kristen’s Team: The Proposition, The Ox-Bow Incident, The Searchers, Calamity Jane, True Grit (2010), Dodge City
Will’s Team: The Wild Bunch, Rio Bravo, Johnny Guitar, Destry Rides Again, Ride Lonesome, Shane
Howard’s Team: Stagecoach, Once Upon A Time In The West, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, My Darling Clementine, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, Fort Apache
Nick’s Team: Tombstone, Blazing Saddles, The Outlaw Josey Wales, Bone Tomahawk, 3:10 to Yuma (2007), The Hateful Eight
I have to go with Howard on this one for having the most consistent list. Stagecoach and Once Upon a Time in the West are at the top of the genre, and he adds a strong revisionist western (Jesse James) from recent years. Everyone made some strong picks, but this one stands out as the best.
Where are the results?
