Good movie but i sent you tombstone with Constantine uncut

LiteWeight Gaming / Reacting

I appreciated that! But it’s impossible to use physical media to record because it gets blocked when it detects a capture card! But seeing the dvd is what peaked my interest in the first place! So thank you!

There a map inside the did where the gun fight happen at the O.K corral

Alex Gorell

Great movie. I Highly recommend True Grit (2011) at some point. It’s My favorite western.

Val Kilmer’s performance in this movie deserved the highest of recognition from Hollywood. He had so many fantastic lines from start to finish. But the scene that resonates with me the most is the one where he’s on his death bed, and he makes one last plea to Wyatt before he passes…”There’s no normal life, Wyatt, there’s just life. Get on with it. Say goodbye to me. Go grab that spirited actress and make her your own. Take that beauty from it, don’t look back. Live every second. Live right on to the end. Live Wyatt. Live for me.” Advice we should all take.

There is another film called… Wyatt Earp (1994), starring Kevin Costner as Earp. This film covers the whole life of Wyatt Earp, including his time at Tombstone and also features an incredible all-star cast. Wyatt Earp (1994) is written and directed by Lawrence Kasdan who also wrote… The Empire Strikes Back (1980) Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) Return of the Jedi (1983) I love Tombstone (1993) as well. Will be watching tonight. Curious how familiar you are with Westerns.

Did anyone else hear "Batman" in your head after you read "Holy star studded cast!" ?

+1 for True Grit (2011).

Val Kilmer acting is stunning in this movie. My favorite Val Kilmer performance. Johnny Ringo (Michael Biehn) was the good guy in The Terminator (1984) and Aliens (1986).

One of my favorites - the whole cast crushes it but Val Kilmer was just perfect as Doc. So yes, this was based on a true story, pretty much all of the characters were real people and Tombstone is a real place (it's been preserved largely as it looked in the 1880s). The movie takes major creative licenses though - it leaves out huge chunks of the story, not to mention several major players including additional Earp brothers, it compresses timelines and also makes a few rewrites for the sake of entertainment (Ringo's death being one of the bigger ones). But, honestly, as a history buff, I just don't care, it's still one of the best modern Westerns!

Billy Zane was a major character in Titanic. He was Roses fiance, so he had alot of screen time

John A

Yes the movie is based on historical events. Tombstone and the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. if you watch again you will see on the gunfight scene it shows an O.K sign, showing it was the O.K Corral.

John A

I agree my favorite Val Kilmer performance too

Chad Ogle

I highly recommend watching Lonesome Dove. Best western ever made.

John A

Billy Zane is a nice guy, I meet him a few times. east to talk to.

Ron White

Charlton Hesto played Henry Hooker whose ranch they stopped at near the end. He played Moses in The Ten Commandments ( 1956 ), Judah Ben Hur in the epic Ben Hur 3 years later and was the star of the original Planet of the Apes in 1968. He was as big as a movie star could be in his heyday.

Dan M

An excellent companion flick for Tombstone.

Dan M

For me, his performance in this movie is tied with his performance in Real Genius as my favorites, and his characters in each movie couldn’t be more different…a true testament to his versatility. Very much like Tom Hanks.

I could list a lot of classic westerns for you: The Dollars Trilogy The Searchers High Noon The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance The Magnificent Seven And so on… But the movie that popped in my head when you asked was Silverado (1985). Fun movie with a great cast.

Larry Darrell

Teegan: “Thanks Captain Obvious.” Me: “Um… that’s Mr. Heston to you, Ma’am.” ;-)

Tara ✨💫

Hi Teegan, Charlton Heston was the older rancher (who you called Captain Obvious haha) towards the end who let Doc stay at his house in bed after he fell off his horse and later we see Wyatt and Doc talking about the meeting with Johnny Ringo I think Doc was a dentist at one time, but I don't know what lead him to being the man we know from history. When Doc says "I'll be damned" before he died, he was looking at his bare feet sticking out from the blanket. I'm sure someone with more knowledge can explain better, but there was some kind of saying back in the Old West about a man dying without his boots on and Doc apparently thought it was funny that he died in bare feet. I don't know if that really happened. Regarding the scene at the creek, I don't know exactly how much of that is accurate, but I do know that Wyatt Earp started saying "No" over and over and just walked into the creek and killed Curly Bill without getting hit from all the other gunfire. Tombstone is a real town in Arizona where tourists visit and can explore around buildings that have been preserved from the 1800's. I believe the graveyard that the Earps ride past when they arrive in Tombstone with the grave marker that you read is real. Bill Paxton (Morgan Earp) was in Aliens, he was also the lead actor in the original Twister, also in Apollo 11 with Tom Hanks and he played the treasure hunter at the very beginning and the end of Titanic. There seems to be a few crossovers with Titanic and Aliens. Michael Biehn (Johnny Ringo) who also played Kyle Reese in The Terminator was also part of the team in Aliens and was also in The Abyss. I saw somewhere that someone had asked him what it was like working with Val Kilmer and Michael basically indicated that he never worked with Val because he WAS Doc Holliday. Yes, Powers Booth (Curly Bill) was in The Avengers, but it's hard to spot him. He's obviously older, but he was one of the council members who were telling Nick Fury what to do, we only saw their faces shadowed on a screen, but I recognized his voice. Stephen Lang (Ike Clanton) was in Avatar as the lead Military guy who got to move in that giant mechanical suit who wanted Jake to spy, Billy Zane (the actor, I don't know his character name) was in a number of Charmed episodes in one of the later seasons, If I remember correctly, he had a thing for Phoebe and taught at the Magic School. He was also Rose's fiancée in Titanic. Billy Bob Thornton played the card dealer at the beginning who Wyatt slapped and said "Are you gonna do something or just stand there and bleed" then he came outside and after a little while, Doc said he didn't see him there and then they excused him. "You may go" with a wave of the hand. lol When they reveal that the actor had died and was on Josephine's lap in the stage coach, the young guy named Billy who had been following along with the Cowboys throughout the movie and was angry when his friends were killed at the gunfight, finally said enough, got on his horse and rode away saying there has got to be some law. That was actually Jason Priestley, he was on Beverly Hills, 90210 when this movie came out in 1993 and he was a big teen heartthrob. Although, I think his character may have had feeling for the actor. When they were doing their stage show, Billy commented on how good the actor was and then when he saw the actor had been killed, Billy touched his hand before riding away saying there needs to be more law. I think that is everybody you asked about.

Silverado is a great Western to dip your toe in the genre before getting to some of the more hardcore Westerns. It stars Kevin Costner, Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn and Danny Glover

Mister Lou

I love this movie, and am glad you did as well! I'm guessing that you would also enjoy 3:10 To Yuma (2007)

Larry Darrell

Yes, the people in this film were real. The Earps, their wives, Doc Holliday, Kate, Josephine Marcus, McMasters, Texas Jack, Turkey Creek Jack, The Clantons, The McLaurys, Johnny Behan, Fred White, “Curly Bill” Brocius, Johnny Ringo, etc, etc… even rancher Henry Hooker, who was played by Charlton Heston. Now as to “how factual” everything in this film is, is hard to say. What we really know for sure about these people’s lives is probably somewhere around the 50% mark. There are some facts that were put down on record, such as the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. (Or at least “facts” that everyone agrees on.) The Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, in Tombstone, is maybe the most famous instance in Wyatt Earp’s storied life. It has been portrayed in many films and TV shows about Wyatt Earp over many years, such as… Law and Order (1932)… the First Frontier Marshal (1939) Tombstone, the Town Too Tough to Die (1942) My Darling Clementine (1946) Gunfight at the O.K. Corral (1957) Hour of the Gun (1967) Doc (1971) Wyatt Earp (1994) Hell… even the first Doctor Who traveled to Tombstone and witnessed the Gunfight in 1966 during the 3rd season… And!!! Captain Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise are forced to re-enact the Gunfight in the 6th episode of the 3rd Season of Star Trek, as The Cowboys. Here’s a bit of the synopsis… “Exploring the town, they find a newspaper dated October 26, 1881, the date of the infamous gunfight at the O.K. Corral. The townspeople believe the landing party are members of the Cowboys: Kirk as Ike Clanton, Scott as Billy Clanton, McCoy as Tom McLaury, Spock as Frank McLaury, and Chekov as Billy Claiborne. The crew soon discovers that men dressed as the Earp brothers; Virgil, Wyatt, and Morgan, as well as their deputy Doc Holliday, are preparing to fight them at the appointed time. Knowing that in real history the gunfight was fatal to most of the Cowboys, the Enterprise crew try to change their fates by getting the sheriff and the townspeople to stop the fight and even attempt to negotiate with the Earps, but nothing works.” Watching all these movies and TV shows you will notice that many times they feel like they’re shooting off the same script. That’s because the Gunfight has been documented so well. But then the other 50% of Earp and his associates’ lives that is not known for sure, is where embellishments and liberties have been made. This even goes back to the days when they were alive, in the late 1800s. Cheap, paperback books were written and widely sold all over the world, which told the Tales of Real Outlaws and Lawmen of the American West… but mostly based on rumors and myth. Dime Store Novels (they usually cost a dime ;-) were a great influence on Popular Culture and what people knew and know about The American West. Films like Tombstone and other films about these real Outlaws and Lawmen, are much like the early Dime Store Novels. They are meant to be entertainment first and not taken as historical fact. Although there are facts in the film… but that’s up to the amateur historians in all of us, to read up and watch some documentaries on the Real American West, to find out which ones are real. It makes watching these films that much more entertaining. I remember the first time I saw Braveheart as a kid, and my grandparents had a complete Encyclopedia. I spent hours looking up all the names from the movie. And now everyone has an Encyclopedia in their pocket. I still get a kick out of being able to google anything I want to know about. (Young folks will never know what looking through an Encyclopedia was like :-) But, like I mentioned earlier, there’s a whole bunch of Real Names in Tombstone to google. And then, wait until you get to movies about… Billy the Kid Jesse James Wild Bill Hickock Buffalo Bill Calamity Jane Annie Oakley Butch Cassidy Tom Horn Davy Crockett Geronimo As much as you like Red Dead Redemption, I’m thinking you may enjoy some more Westerns. Here’s hoping you return. :-) (Starter List incoming) Lastly… Doc Holliday was a Dentist :-)

Larry Darrell

All films in the Western genre are not the same. Tarantino explains it best… “One of the things that is actually really exciting about the Western Genre is that, probably more than any other genre there is, even though they all take place 100 or something years ago, Westerns reflect the decade in which they were made, more than musicals, more than period dramas, more than even comedies.” https://youtu.be/1RoebUgre6A So, if you Teegan or anyone else is interested in exploring the History of the Western, and are curious to see how they’ve evolved over the years, then please check out some of these.

Billy Zane is like a top level B-List actor. He's in all kinds of stuff and you're usually very enthusiastic to spot him in his oddball roles. Comfort food for movie fans.

McShades

Most gunfighters figured they would die with their boots on (due to all the fighting they did). So when Doc looked at his bare feet, he said "that's funny". Doc was a dentist before he took up gambling and gunfighting. The movie was loosely based on a true story. Keven Costner made a Wyatt Earp movie at the same time as Tombstone, but Tombstone beat it to the theaters, Keven Costner movie called Wyatt Earp is more factual then Tombstone but it's not as action packed as Tombstone was.

Alice Devilman

As far as actors go, this is the pinnacle of a "stacked cast." The only other film that even comes close is Saving Private Ryan. You've got a few less trips around the sun than some of us older AARP card holders, so you didn't catch quite a few of the actors that were more obviously known at the time of release, not to mention that almost every single one of the characters over 50 was a cameo by the top tier Western stars of the 50's and 60's.

james nobriga

This is my all time favorite movie. I loved that you did this reaction! Holliday had the nick name Doc because he was a dentist. I believe Doc Holliday looked at his feet and said 'That's funny' because his feet were bare. He figured he'd die in battle with his boots on, not barefoot in a hospital bed...by far my favorite Val Kilmer performance!

Anthony Padua

So, if you loved this, you should watch Lonesome Dove… it is a mini-series, but has an all-star cast, and is one of the best stories ever told. IMO

Ryan Towell

I grew up not to far from Tombstone. Our school played them in sports every year. Funny enough Tombstone High's mascot is the Yellow Jacket but my high school is called "Home of the Cowboys". And our colors are Red. We used to always talk about how the only reason Tombstone is famous is because that's where the shootout happened. Where as a lot of the cowboy stuff happened closer in and around my home town. And yes everyone for the most part in this film are based on real people. it was a cool place growing up lots of cool history, not just the cowboy stuff but the Apache Wars primarily with Cochise and Geronimo etc. But, a lot of the scenery in this was shot around my county. It's nice watching this and seeing area's that are familiar. A couple other westerns i highly recommend are: Silverado ( a stacked cast and a very young Kevin Costner), Open Range (an older Costner, Robert Duvalle and many others great Western) and speaking of Costner Dances with Wolves. And off the western topic since I mentioned Costner a few times.. Field of Dreams. As for Kilmer probably didn't list Top Gun as his top films because he was a supporting actor in that, in the others he was the star, Billy Bob was the card dealer that stood there and bled...Billy Zane was one of Biffs 3 thugs. He's the one at the dance when Marty is hiding under the table but he see's the other Marty on stage playing guitar and he says, "How the hell does he change clothes so fast:". As for Doc's death in this I always took it as in all the craziness his life threw at him, he didn't die with his boots on but rather in a hospital bed. As for Ringo Doc didn't really kill him in real life that was for this movie. In real life there is no real fact how he died but it was believed it was suicide as they found his body laying there under a tree near Turkey Creek and his gun laying by his hand.

Michael Keefer

The length of the comment alone deserves a heart.

Michael Keefer

The only downside to this film is how they made the earps out to be law abiding citizens. The earps were known for being good people but they did have a blood feud with the Clantons and the McClourys were tight with them and both were in the Cowboy gang. When the Earps went to the OK Corral it wasnt for justice. They were looking for a justified reason to settle the blood feud. Its why they became police. They did what any good man should have done but it wasnt for a noble cause. Their families hated each other. Theirs alot of history thats left out between the families and why the earps went after the cowboys
