Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Romantic Comedy? It Happened One Night Road Trip Comedy? Planes Trains and Automobiles Animated? Iron Giant Japanese Animated? Don't watch them Foreign Language?

You need to fix that. I've tried all the greats. High Noon, The Searchers, Tombstone (I liked that one), a few Clint Eastwood ones. They are tolerable to decent, but don't ever grab me. I love the TV series Deadwood though, oddly. It's one of my favorites of all time. But the Western genre of film is Aquaman to me.

Edit: Never mind, I failed to notice you already picked Django.
