One of the greatest movies ever remade and opens this month

[Lee Borgersen]

John Wayne would knock Lint Easterbunny over with one small fart! Probably even with a silent fart! 

[The General]

oooohhh another old timer who can't face the facts.  



If I ever wore at hat like that I'd have to kick my own

So let's get our facts straight here. If I'm an old timer than what does that make our boy Clint? As I see it Clint Eastwood was born on May 31st 1935. That actually makes him 10 yrs. older than me. Me thinks you best wait till the 2011 Fishing Challenge smackdown begins where you can get away with the  posts since your not doing to good here.

[The General]

I wasn't saying Clint wasn't old.  What I was pointing out was the young men like yourself seem to like John Wayne more and it looks like the people more my age probably aren't fans of the old westerns like myself.  I grew up riding horse including shooting guns off them.  I grew up watching The Duke, Gene, Roy, Festus (my favorite on Gunsmoke),  Little Joe, etc.  But Clint made them all look like they were standing still.

So, in essence what your trying to say is you apologize because you misspoke in your prior post. Well, in that case I accept your apology and appreciate your efforts to redeem your reputation.

May the force be with you my friend.

     The original True Grit is on TMC (the movie channel) at 7 pm tonight.  If you have not seen it check it out.  It starts out a little slow but grows throughout the movie. 

[MTCOMMER]

I just switched it on, this old man should stop talking and show the movie!   

[Lee Borgersen]

You old timers wouldn't know the king of westerns if he hit you in the  .  Clint would pistol whip John with 2 hands tied behind his back. 

Josey are we going to bury that guy......Nah Buzzards got to eat too.

"You see my mule don't like people laughing. He gets the crazy idea you're laughing at him. Now if you apologize like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it...

Here's proof for once and for all as to who's the best as if everyone didn't already know Right General!

I could show you plenty of polls that go the opposite direction.  You must have found a poll done by Sisckle & Ebert. 

John Wayne's loose teeth would be sticking in Clint's knuckless.  Clint would hit him so hard it would knock the yellow off his teeth.   Pretty much end of story.

Really????

Well I Googled Clint Eastwood v. John Wayne and clicked on the VERY FIRST link.  http://www.grudge-match.com/History/western.shtml  Notice the results and who wins the poll.  Anything else you would like me to whoop you up on BB?

[The General]

"Does the name Marion Michael Morrison ring any bells? No? The Duke's real first name was MARION! No wonder he changed his name: it cries out "Poofter!" The name change might have made Wayne sound more masculine, but it couldn't affect his genes, which he passed on to his son, Patrick, who hosted the horrific "The Monte Carlo Show". "



Plus the Sally did musicals.

[/quote]Are you kidding me? this is your support a grudge match site? Where are the wax figures Duking it out? Lets talk box office and awards here not hand puppets..

[The General]

My point was, you can find a poll for anything and any direction you want to go with them.  You asked for a poll I gave you one.  I believe all I've ever said is who could kick who's 

[Bobby Bass]

Wayne is still number one in terms of how much dough his movies raked in! Remember this list from a few years ago, proclaiming The Duke the all-time greatest movie moneymaker? You don't? Well, read on Pilgrim:

John Wayne All Time Top Money-Making Star


GROTON, Mass., Feb. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Using data from 72 years of Quigley Publishing Company's annual Top Ten Money-Making Star Poll of motion picture exhibitors, John Wayne has been named the Top Money-Maker of All Time. The Quigley Poll, conducted every year since 1932, is an annual survey of motion picture exhibitors, which asks them to vote for the ten stars that generated the most box-office revenue in the preceding year for their theatres. Long regarded as one of the most reliable indicators of a Star's box-office draw, the Quigley Poll has been cited in hundreds of publications and appears annually in Quigley Publishing Company's International Motion Picture Almanac and on our site; http://www.quigleypublishing.com/. During this motion picture awards season, it is interesting to see who theatre owners and operators believe really have meant something at their box-office. During his 50-year career John Wayne appeared in over 150 films, including classics such as, The Quiet Man, The Searchers and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, but only won one Academy Award for True Grit.

To come up with a weighted score, an actor received 10 points for a first place finish, nine for a second place finish, etc. The total score was determined by adding up the weighted scores from each year that the actor was voted on the list. John Wayne's appearance 25 times in the poll from 1949 to 1974 yielded 172 points versus 165 points for second place Clint Eastwood, who has been on the list 21 times. Tom Cruise placed third with 133.5 points combining six first place finishes with 16 appearances on the QP poll.

Your turn Pilgrim!  

[The General]

If you're trying to debate who's movies have made more money SO FAR you can win that one.  Still doesn't detour the fact that Clint would put out his stogy on Marion's forehead after opening up a six shooter full of whoop arse on him.

End of Story!!!!!!!!

[Fawkinnae]

Wow. One question though - how did Clint shoot John all the way from Italy? Come to think of it I didn't see any blood. Maybe he got lyme disease or whooping cough or something and just collapsed (of course I'm just speculating).

[Lee Borgersen]

Clint's a vegan, for crying out loud! Being an anti-gun nut is one thing, but come on! How can a registered Republican who loves Ronald Reagan-and who's played more cowboys than Reagan ever did-possibly be a vegan? Cows are made of meat, for God's sake!

Look, veganism is supposed to be for hippies like Moby, Woody Harrelson and the guy he killed in Dirty Harry. It's supposed to be for airheads like Avril Lavigne, who once told a Calgary newspaper that she eats vegan and does yoga daily because she's "totally spiritual." Would the Outlaw Josey Wales ever tell a Calgary newspaper that he was totally spiritual?

And what kind of name is "Josey" for an outlaw, while we're at it? It's a great name for the lead singer of the Pussycats, sure, but not for an outlaw. Play dudes with manlier names and eat a steak, Clint!

[Bobby Bass]

Pretty simply equation you like an actor you buy a ticket to see him act. Duke is a head of Clint and that is still with a Clint movies getting dollars to be seen while the Dukes movies could be seen for pocket change. I do like how you just decide to end a little debate by simply saying "End of Story" so you going to take your ball and go home now?  nice video clip though, Clint pistol sounds like a 44 to me though

[Lee Borgersen]

I'm sure this debate will continue for some time to come and at times may seem silly to many. However, I've decided to put the sillyness aside and present some actual documentation to settle this debate once and for all

[Bobby Bass]

Ye Haw, kind of brings a tear to ones eye.. Just proof that we need to get away from this  and do more of this  :fishing2:

[FireRanger]

You guys is like listen'n to a bunch a old hens cacklin' at each others!  Keep 'em goin'!!

[Bobby Bass]

I didn't want to mention this but I can understand how the General got things backwards. Look at the fan he installed here at the Lodge..

Take my ball and go home.........sure sounds like me.   Again no debate on who has made more money.  I'm guessing Tom Hanks has made more money then Steven Segal, but I'm taking Segal in a fight.  BB your ship is sinking   Glad you found help though in the debate.  Makes it more fun.

I'd send Clint over there to kick  .  Then I'd send Marion to clean up and put curtains on everything.  Plus he could sing them a lullaby to put them to sleep.

[The General]

Just the sight of Clint probably made him poop his pants and have a heart attack.  The shots were just to honor the dead.

[The General]

Lee the debate was settled way before your wrestling post.  Plus everyone knows wrestling is fake anyway.  

Lee, plus if we are turning to off screen character......at least Clint wasn't a draft dodger.  How can a man speak out for war, play the big hero, play parts as a war hero................what a hypocrite. 

Now back to how Clint would hit John Wayne so hard his eye patch would do a 720 around his head.

[DDSBYDAY]

     At least Wayne could poop.  It is clear that Clint is severely constipated in all his movies.  General if you ever have that shoulder fixed you will be squinting like Clint after a couple dozen pain pills.  One more thing, Clint's psyco, bugeyed  girlfriend was uglier than his monkey buddy.

I was wondering when you would show up.

You may be right about Wayne taking a poop, but he better not use that toilet paper that's like Clint Eastwood.  It's rough, tough, and doesn't take no  from John Wayne or anyone else.
