again I hate this listing thing personally because the value of movies changes with circumstances, how you watch them, how often, when was the last time you saw it, etc…

Don’t hate what you love :wink:

The actual list with now 125 films compiled by 73 members.

The promised forced entry of Parolini’s Sartana into the published Top 20 was repulsed in the very last minute by Alk0’s revised list, which kicked Parolini’s Sartana back to his long occupied position. So Sartana had his place in the sun only for a few days.

Do you want me to update the page, Stanton?

668
  1. Two guns and a coward - Ferdinando Baldi

I had never heard of such a Baldi movie
Turns out to be the only Ferroni western I have never seen

Surprising, to me:

  • High ranks for Blindman, Mannaja, and this Ferroni movie (should see it)
  • Low ranks for The Forgotten Pistolero, A Stranger in Town, Black Jack

Tepepa should’ve had a few votes more: forgot to mention it in my Top 20, its place is somewhere between 12 and 16 (wouldn’t make much of a difference btw)

Corbucci sneaking into Leone Land !

Great work, Stanton !

669

This ‘two pistols and coward’ seems to be an error. If you check the previous list ‘forgotten pistolero’ had similar amount of points so i guess this is it. But then what is this “69 The Forgotten Pistolero Carnimeo, Giuliano 20”?

670

I guess you’re right about 29) Forgotten Pistolero

  1. is most probably a Carnimeo movie, but i don’t know which one
    I’ll check the old list here in this thread
671

Ehh… it was only a test, but you fellas are watchful, can’t fool you.

I’ve changed it. Sorry, sorry, sorry, something went wrong with the added english titles.

672

Blindman amd Mannaja were always that high in the ranks and The Forgotten Pistolero is still climbing.

Black Jack and all 3 Stranger films are not the typical top 20 films, but I assume they would be in many lists between 20 and 40. There are some more interesting SWs (at least for me) which still got none votes like Dead Men Ride or The Last Killer

673

Still there’re 2 ‘moments to kill’:
60 The Moment to Kill Caiano, Mario 24
69 The Moment to Kill Carnimeo, Giuliano 20
:stuck_out_tongue:

674

Blindman, Mannaja : you’re right about this, of course, but I was stricktly speaking for myself, I don’t get the praise for these films

Black Jack, Stranger movies - next time we’ll send a personal Top 40
Let’s say shortly before Christmas
It would be interesting to see if it would change a lot

675

:P[/quote]

Oookaaay … also changed, must check the whole list, I think. But it’s only the english titles, the italian ones and the directors related to them are still ok.

If someone spots spelling errors, please let me know.

676

Blindman I like very much, but Mannaja would be mentioned by me also in the most overrated SWs thread

Black Jack, Stranger movies - next time we'll send a personal Top 40 Let's say shortly before Christmas It would be interesting to see if it would change a lot

Ming has asked above also for expanded lists. We should discuss it, “shortly before x-mas” is a good idea.

677

It would be interesting not only with an expanded list, but also have the whole thing done completely from scratch I think.

678

Of course, you can, the 1st 30 are already done.

679

I had almost forgotten that I put an Amazon link on top of the list with most titles of that list… you can buy 14 dvds with one click… where was this when I was discovering spaghetti westerns??

680

For the next update I’ll intend to kick The Quick and the Dead out of the list, cause it doesn’t belong there.

What’s about El Topo?
El Topo was named 3 times, but it’s surely no SW.
