Morgan Earp (Bill Paxton) was also Hudson in Aliens (Game over, man!) and the leader of the punk gang in Terminator, amongst other memorable roles. Johnny Ringo (Michael Biehn), was Corporal Hicks in Aliens (Ripley's borderline love interest), and Kyle Reese (humanity's savior) in Terminator. When Doc talks to Wyatt about the unfillable hole in Johnny Ringo, I think he's probably also talking about himself. Wyatt Earp didn't die until 1929 (at a little over 80 years old). He was living in L.A. in his later years and was a consultant on many of the early Westerns. He had a large role in shaping the Hollywood western mythos, which is part of why he became such a large, and usually sympathetically portrayed, figure in the mythos. He wasn't really the central figure in the confrontations with the Clantons; Virgil was. If you ever feel like checking out a Western series, I strongly encourage Deadwood, which has some wonderful acting and amazing dialogue.

Sorry if it’s been mentioned previously. Check out “Wyatt Earp” with Kevin Costner. A different perspective of this story.

[@opalviking]

The two movie productions were filming at the same time. The costume departments were famously at-war with each other and there was a race in both editing rooms to be released first

[@NLBrown-gz2qe]

I personally much prefer Costner’s version

[@opalviking]

@@NLBrown-gz2qe Costner’s was definitely more historically accurate than Tombstone.

[@wedgeantilles4712]

@@opalviking It's not that one is more historicly accurate than the other, it just that "Wyatt Earp" has more running time than Tombstone, so it has a chance to tell you more.

[@miqx1977]

Please react to "Unforgiven" .

[@rescuetweak]

I love the cameo by Charlton Heston. Who starred in what I consider the greatest movie ever made, original Ben Hur. I took my family to Tombstone once. It was really interesting and there are still conflicts over what exactly happened.

[@lumpylowell]

The Unforgiven is another great western from this era, directed by Clint Eastwood

[@dedcaesar2325]

If you continue into Westerns you need to see: “Unforgiven”, “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance”, “The Shootist”. And if you want a good Val Kilmer movie you need to watch: “Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang”.

[@jasonsummer7434]

Loved this reaction! Tombstone is a great movie... "Silverado" is a star-studded western that's very similar to this movie. It has a slower burn, but so, so satisfying. TRUST ME on this!!

[@SSJ2Phenom]

I couldn't stand this reaction. He talked over like 90% of the best parts and missed them. I understand he can't show the entire movie but more thought has to go into stuff like this. I'm sure when he sat down to watch this that he was more than aware of the talk online praising Kilmer for his absolutely wonderful and mind blowing portrayal of Holliday. He missed several wonderful little things, words, and nuances.

[@oxcees1978]

I remember watching this movie with my dad when it came out, he died two years later. Its still one if my favorite movies to this day

[@adolfoandreavila7104]

You need to see " The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" best western ever

[@MsBlackdeath13]

Soo many great actors in this movie. Still one of my favorite westerns. Even the smaller roles are stacked with great actors. Stephen Lang (don't breathe/avatar), Michael Biehn (Aliens/The Abyss), Michael Rooker (Guardians of the Galaxy/Slither/walking dead).

[@Mr.Batsu12]

If this was one of the best westerns you have seen then you need to react to Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven. Starring Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman and Richard Harris.

[@wallyman292]

One of my all time favorites. And yes, Kilmer definitely deserved a supporting actor oscar for his part.

[@mynineridesshotgun]

I recommended ‘The Wild Bunch’ as a Fantastic western to add to your list.

[@tylerhendrix3509]

No one ever brings up The Wild Bunch and it's a real damn shame

[@pencilnecked1579]

@@tylerhendrix3509 Wholeheartedly agree. Another film, that is brought up even less than The Wild Bunch, is The Professionals with Lee Marvin, Burt Lancaster, Robert Ryan, Woody Strode and Jack Palance.

You should see how Val Kilmer morphed into Jim Morrison in The Doors.

Unforgiven with Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, and Gene Hackman.

[@n4m31355h4dow]

You should watch "wyatt earp" with Kevin Costner. This movie and "Tombstone" were in production at the same time and people always compare them. But for me I always watch them together

[@voyager406]

Should watch Unforgiven by Clint Eastwood, a great western film.

[@CineRam]

Brandon, I hope you'll give "The Quick and the Dead" a shot when you choose more westerns to see! Very stylish, directed by Sam Raimi who did "Evil Dead" and the first batch of Spider-Man movies. Leonardo DiCaprio plays a young gunslinger, and steals his scenes in much the same way Val did in "Tombstone". Plus Russell Crowe and a great villain in Gene Hackman.

The dude Kurt Russle slapped in the beginning is Billy Bob Thornton.

"Tombstone isn't the paradise it's made out to be." Well I mean, it _is_ called Tombstone, after all.

There's a story behind the name. I just don't remember it well enough to type it here

[@phillipribbink6903]

@@TheKyrix82 Tombstone was a silver mining town. The silver deposit was discovered by a prospector named Ed Schieffelin who was told by a fellow prospector that the only rock he'd find out there was his Tombstone. Which is where the town gets its name from. The reason for Schieffelin's friend telling him that was that the area was Apache territory at the time.

There's a "western-ish" movie called Maverick. It's a comedy/action about a guy trying to become the best poker player. It stars Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster and James Gardner.

[@popculturista]

It was a popular TV show starring James Garner. The Mel Gibson movie came much later and, I believe, Garner had a cameo.

[@1x4]

@@popculturista James Garner plays the father in the movie. An easter egg on the fact that he's supposed to be the same guy from the tv series. I was suggesting the movie only.

The Quick and the Dead is a fun western from '95. It's got Sharon Stone, Russell Crowe, Gene Hackman, and a young Leo, while being directed by Sam Raimi and sort of co-written by Joss Whedon. it was one of my favorite movies when I was growing up.
