which was super excellent, and recently watched

which was not as good but had such style that I enjoyed it anyway. and I always recently watched some movies featuring this man

    I'd go gay for Clint Eastwood.

    That is a scientific fact.

    sukiyaki was partly a parody

    in case you somehow didn't grasp that

    oh yeah definitely

    it is part parody part homage at the same time

    what I'm saying is people just go watch sukiyaki western django

    maybe fast forward through any of the parts with tarantino

    Deadwood is totally killer, though it's an entirely different animal from traditional westerns.

    She looks a bit weird in some stills though.
