Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
That intro may be the best thing I've ever seen. *insert Pirates of the Caribbean lieutenant here*

Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
I'm going to assume your version of the film doesn't have the intermission, given it seemed to go off sync about then (you commented on the bad day for night during the previous scene where it was night for night). Maybe insert that info into the description.

Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
Just finished listening 
Wayne did around 200 films, if you include all his bit parts in the 1920's. I remember buying a glossy magazine when he died with all his films listed. An elementary school teacher couldn't believe I had paid that much for it, but, hey, I saw a lot of westerns on TV and this was the first actor who had died on me.
Wayne was VERY anti-communist, to the point of openly bragging on how he helped get the writer of High Noon blacklisted, forcing him to move to England. He was also of the "my country, right or wrong" variety of patriotism, rather than the current "my side, because I'm right!"
I think the John Ford "cavalry trilogy", Fort Apache, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, and Rio Grande are well worth watching. Henry Fonda is actually the star of Fort Apache, so you can see Wayne in more of a supporting role.

Trey is a cartoon now? When did that happen?

That's what happens when you kill a hooker in Toon Town.

John Wayne will cure your stutter by yelling at you.
Can The Rock or Chuck Norris do that?

Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
I can't believe you guys went this whole commentary and never brought up City Slickers, where Jack Palance plays the John Wayne part and middle aged yuppies replace the young boys learning to lead cattle across the range.
Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
I tried, I really did try, to bring that up in chat.
Oh well.
God loves you!

Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
I've not seen this one, so it's on my list. I'd also not seen City Slickers, so I'm watching this one too.
Thanks guys. That's what it's all about.

Hey Teague, you should put the YouTube videos as public on a FIYH channel with preroll ads. Monetize! You could make dozens of dollars!

Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
I'm thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. I've been listening to you guys as I hike including a commentary for a movie I never heard of called The Cowboys. I just checked into a hotel in Ashland, OR, turned on the TV and there were John Wayne and Bruce Dern... The Cowboys! Can't wait to watch it.

Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
Hatari was the only John Wayne movie I'd seen until watching this episode. I saw it at my Aunt and Uncle's house when I was 13 years old and I still remember parts of it to this day, 21 years later. Definitely need to see more of John Wayne's work.
After Paper Moon and The Cowboys, I want Trey's list of films he keeps bringing up because those two were both excellent.

Trey, is The 'Burbs on that list? I think these people need the classic Tom Hanks, Bruce Durn, Corey Feldman, and Carrie Fisher movie everyone was waiting for

Re: The Cowboys [Curated]
I tried to autotune Roscoe Lee Browne's story scene into a song. The whole scene is on YouTube. After a couple hours of trying, I am not skilled enough to do it.
