    I think you guys have listed some of the best. Personally, I like:

    Appaloosa
    Open Range

    I know they aren't on par with the rest, but as far as newer westerns I dig them. Can't beat old school stuff though.

    The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is the greatest movie of all time, so it is by extension the greatest western of all time. After that I'd go with:

    2. Rio Bravo
    3. The Outlaw Josey Wales (which I saw for the first time this weekend).
    4. A Fistful of Dollars
    5. For a Few Dollars More
    6. Blazing Saddles
    7. Tombstone
    8. Red River
    9. Unforgiven
    10. Lonesome Dove

    The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is not only the greatest western ever made, but the greatest movie ever made. Period.

    I don't watch too many Westerns, but I think I've seen three that are often considered amonst the very best:

    The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly
    The Searchers
    Once Upon a Time in the West

    I've never seen Rio Bravo or Clint Eastwood's other movies, though.

    Unforgiven was the first movie that came to mind. Then Tombstone but I can't put it above Unforgiven.

    I thought this was going to be a thread about Best Western Hotels.
