What does that even mean moron? Capeshit is about unkillable demigods doing whatever they want. They are completely devoid of any humanity. Westerns are about cool guys who shoot guns. They're still actual human beings.
>is westerns just superhero movies for boomers?
did some capeshit youtuber say this? they are nothing alike. westerns are based on a real myth and culture that explores various aspects of the human condition
This really
Yojimbo is a better movie than A Fistful of Dollars. Clint wearing the iron vest in the end is iconic but the “rifle vs pistol” concept is incredibly stupid compared to Yojimbo’s “gun vs sword”
But it's such a nice moment at the end of the scene where they have a reloading contest.
But it's silly that because this remakes Yojimbo the bad guy in AFoD acts like revolver is some ancient weapon next to his shotgun.
the best is the second movie when clint teams up with that other kino bounty hunter. my only complaint for that movie was that nino wasnt a better antagonist
The same actor These movies had such a low budget they had to recycle actors. He would've been in the third one for sure but he was a moron in real life and decided to make only commie movies in the future.
I made the same mistake with Van Cleef's character between the 2nd and 3rd movie. I was confused because the 2nd one ends on such a happy note and then they're suddenly enemies for no reason in the next one. It's funny because Mortimer and Angel Eyes are on the opposite ends of the moral spectrum.

clint doesn't even play the same character in the dollars "trilogy"
Indio is legitimately terrifying. He works better for me as a villain too because Van Cleef has so much charisma it kinda sucks that he dies as Angel Eyes.
His psychotic laugh and absolute lack of empathy, even for his own gang members, definitely makes him a scary villain. >Van Cleef has so much charisma it kinda sucks that he dies as Angel Eyes.
That's what I don't like about GBU. They also don't flesh out his character very much beyond establishing him as a greedy murderer, so when he dies it just seems like a waste of a character. At least you get plenty of time to learn about El Indio before he dies at the end.
People get contrarian about For a Few Dollars More being better than The Good, the Bad and the Ugly here, but the theme music is actually better. Ecstasy of Gold > all though.
The theme is less overplayed. I can still listen to it in isolation because Metallica didn't claim it (but Ecstasy of Gold still works in the movie itself).
More like morality tales for people with old school ideas about courage, honor and duty. Westerns always had a good sense for good vs. evil, and once they started getting made in color that went away in favor of more deeply flawed but noble characters
>trilogy
I hate this shit because none of it is connected. The characters don’t act the same and some are just straight up recasts. There’s no continuity and it just makes you feel less for the characters because you don’t grow to know them throughout like you do with the OT or the MCU (up to Endgame)
>There’s no continuity
It's about the eternal struggle between ethos and pathos that takes place at different places and times across the wild west. Eastwood's character is like a benevolent spirit who is everywhere and nowhere at the same time, dispensing justice to a land that seems void of it while giving people just enough rope to hang themselves with. Leone himself said that the character was based off of the archangel Gabriel. Point is, the plot and characters might change but the moral struggle does not. >you don’t grow to know them throughout like you do with the OT or the MCU (up to Endgame)
What personalities do those characters even have outside of making witty quips about pop culture? They're all boring Mary Sues that fly around in an Iron Man suit of plot armor. They don't change over time because they're the same plastic Barbie dolls throughout all of those movies.
>For a Few Dollars More
>picture from GBU
Old westerns kind of was.
Spaghetti westerns were more subversive capeshit ala Watchmen or Joker.
What does that even mean moron? Capeshit is about unkillable demigods doing whatever they want. They are completely devoid of any humanity. Westerns are about cool guys who shoot guns. They're still actual human beings.
What about shit like Batman?
He's a demigod, what part of my post don't you get?
>he thinks Batman is achievable natty
Point and laugh at the idiot
Ok I'm pointing and laughing at you right now
God youre moronic
>is westerns just superhero movies for boomers?

No they're hero movies, and spaghetti westerners are often antihero movies.
Yes. And before that it was Sword and Sandal shit. People get tired of the over-saturation and stop going to see them.
there is not a single capeshit flick that has the artistic integrity of a single episode on "have gun - will travel"
That's because there's multiple capekinos that have the artistic integrity of Have Gun - WIll Travel
His debut was in Revenge of the Creature and Tarantlla. Those weren't even his first westerns he was also in Rawhide.
Clint is one of my favourite filmers.
westerns are just samurai movies for morons
>
plebbit
They're samurai movies for people who've seen every samurai movie worth watching.
>Thing
>Thing, Japan

I prefer EL Indio because he was a bigger psycho
they looked so similar i thought they werer same guy. they were also too similar imo, not enough of a thhreat, but howell.

>he doesn't know that Kurosawa was inspired by older John Ford westerns
Cool what movies did he remake?
Superheroes are currently dying and didn't produce a single kino.
That's what redditors think
nah, they're too masculine for the capeshit audience
That wasn't his debut. He was a popular character on a western tv show for 6 years before he went the way of the spaghetti western.
Rollin Rollin Rollin
No, because characters can actually get killed in westerns to teach the audience a valuable lesson.

>just watched both movies yesterday and today
