Nah, QATD is fun! Doesn't belong here though. I'm ashamed to say I suggested that one, but only as a joke [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Aren't there two or three movies with this name? I've seen two and considered myself voting against both.

Well,

I really feel we covered the bases fairly well with the nominations for this one. And seriously, if some movie we left out would have replaced The Quick and the Dead as a bottom-seed, does anyone really think it would have had a chance vs. some of the powerhouses in this poll?

I agree. It's a tip-top job. Thanks for the effort, Swede!

WTF is wrong with people?

I agree. Tombstone is a good movie but High Plains Drifter is top notch. Oh well...

I am willing to bet most of the Tombstone voters never saw HPD

I like HPD a lot, but I don't think it's one of the best Eastwood movies at all. OTOH, Tombstone is, for me, the best western released since The Long Riders (which is dissapointingly behind to Shane here in the first round). I also think Tombstone is the closest the modern western has come to the classic western, and if it weren't for Dana Delaney's terrible performance, the movie would be perfect for me. So I voted for it over HPD.

The worst Eastwood western ever made is better than Tombstone.
