Things to Watch

This page lists a bunch of movies that we (or at least one of us) wants to watch in the future. Movies will be taken off of and added to this list as we hear about movies and watch them. Sometimes our wanting to watch a movie again will go into this list. The lists have no order, the numbering is to make it easier to find movies to cross off or sift through, rather than a page of bullet points.

So here they are! Sorted by no order! Some MOVIES!

Western-orinos:

Cowboy hats and big horses. Westerns make up such a large amount of movies that were released that some of them are worth watching to understand the highlights of the genre. This however cannot be done without understanding beforehand the issues that the Western genre is notorious for (racism, anti-indigenous people, misogyny, harmful racial stereotypes, etc).

  2. 3:10 to Yuma (2007 and 1957 versions)
  3. Unforgiven (1992)

  7. Shane (1953)
  8. The Magnificent Seven (1960)
