I’ll be doing my usual New Year’s update of the Alternative Top 20 soon so if anyone wants to submit a list for the first time now’s your chance.

Also, if any of you who have already submitted a list want to update please go ahead but please please please include your old list too so I can make the adjustments without trolling back to find old lists.

Cheers

My old list, which hasn’t changed in five years:

And my new one:

  1. Requiescant (Kill And Pray) (Carlo Lizzani, 1967)
  2. Réquiem para el gringo (Requiem For Gringo) (José Luis Merino, 1968)
  3. Mannaja (A Man Called Blade) (Sergio Martino, 1977)
  4. La taglia è tua… l’uomo l’ammazzo io (El Puro) (Edoardo Mulargia, 1969)
  5. Se incontri Sartana prega per la tua morte (If You Meet Sartana, Pray For Your Death) (Gianfranco Parolini, 1968)
  6. Oggi a me… domani a te! (Today It’s Me… Tomorrow You!) (Tonino Cervi, 1968)
  7. Sentenza di morte (Death Sentence) (Mario Lanfranchi, 1968)
  8. 10.000 dollari per un massacro (10,000 Dollars For a Massacre) (Romolo Guerrieri, 1967)
  9. I Crudeli (The Hellbenders) (Sergio Corbucci, 1967)
  10. California (Michele Lupo, 1977)
  11. Il pistolero dell’Ave Maria (The Forgotten Pistolero) (Ferdinando Baldi, 1969)
  12. Il prezzo del potere (The Price of Power) (Tonino Valerii, 1969)
  13. Buon funerale, amigos!.. paga Sartana (Have a Good Funeral, My Friend… Sartana Will Pay) (Giuliano Carnimeo, 1970)
  14. Un minuto per pregare, un istante per morire (A Minute to Pray, a Second to Die) (Franco Giraldi, 1968)
  15. Il grande duello (The Grand Duel) (Giancarlo Santi, 1972)
  16. Joko invoca Dio… e muori (Vengeance) (Antonio Margheriti, 1968)
  17. Navajo Joe (Sergio Corbucci, 1966)
  18. Sono Sartana, Il vostro becchino (I am Sartana, Your Angel of Death) (Giuliano Carnimeo, 1968)
  19. Bandidos (Massimo Dallamano, 1967)
  20. Quella sporca storia nel West (Johnny Hamlet) (Enzo Castellari, 1968)

I don’t know how you’re going to go about excising If You Meet Sartana… Pray For Your Death from the chart so I just figured I’d leave it in my list at least until you decide what you’re going to do. If you need me to remove it from my list and provide an alternative in anticipation of If You Meet Sartana’s ascension to the Big 20, let me know.

The imminent eligibility of Run, Man, Run won’t be an issue for my list; I think it’s a very mediocre film.

Alternative list seems still to be confusing. You can and should have some same titles in your both list, top20 and alternative20.

537

Why would I include a film in both lists? Or what do you mean?

538

He means that if you don’t have exactly the same 20 films on your own Top 20 as the official Top 20 then those other on your own Top 20 also should be included in your Alternate Top 20.

So the more your own Top 20 differ from the official one, the more your own Top 20 should ressemble your own Alternate Top 20, regarding WHICH films are included on the respective lists.

539

And that’s exactly what I did.

540

Not allowed are only the Spags of the forum’s Top 20, but films in your personal top 20, which are not in the forum’s Top 20, should be automatically in your Alternative Top 20. Like Tepepa, to name one of 8 from your Top 20.

541

It should basically be a list of your favourite Westerns, excluding any/all of those Westerns which appear in the SWDB top twenty. So, looking at your personal twenty favourites which you submitted to the official top twenty thread, your first eight movies were all in our SWDB top twenty, but your ninth-favourite movie is Tepepa, which doesn’t appear in the SWDB top twenty. Ergo, Tepepa is your highest rated movie which does not appear in the SWDB top twenty, logically making it the number one movie in your Alternative top 20. :+1:

In fact, just looking at your top twenty list which you submitted on the official top twenty thread, we can ascertain the first eight entries for your alternative top twenty:

  1. Tepepa
  2. God Forgives… I Don’t
  3. Navajo Joe
  4. The Hellbenders
  5. What am I Doing in the Middle of the Revolution?
  6. The Specialists
  7. Requiescant
  8. The Ugly Ones
542

Well put …

543

Exactly that.
Don’t worry @Companero_M, this seems to confuse lots of people.
I’ll have to look over my wording and see if I can make it clearer to all.
