I have seen couple of polls about the best recent western film, and Unforgiven seem to be majority favorite. Good movie, but slightly over drawn.
So started this poll to give node to Tombstone as better westerrn mostly due Kurt Russel performance. Especially like the part where he take away guy"s gun where the guy was talking trash, and whipp it upside his head.
Ranked by release date:
Unforgiven (1992): An aging outlaw and killer who takes on one more job years after he had hung up his guns and turned to farming.

Tombstone (1993):Tell them I'm coming and HELLS coming with me.
