Definitely one of the greatest movies of all time. And maybe the greatest Western (depends on your taste...It is my fav). Maybe the greatest score of all time too.
Also the only movie in history where the badass hero supplies his own badass theme music IN the movie!!!

While I agree with most of your points, being the best western is debatable (of course to each his/her own). My favorite is BC and the SK. Close second is High Noon. But essentially they are all awesome and I really enjoy watching them.

Sure. Your mileage will vary on all of them. BC and the SK is a totally different kind of western than OUATITW.

I do agree with being different but we were talking about westerns not classical westerns specifically. Either way, can't wait to watch it again.

I like most westerns! It is a genre that will always bring a smile to face!

Awesome news. My second favourite western after The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

And I love the design.

The Blu-ray previously released Includes the Theatrical Version (165:24) and the Restored Version (166:01)
The Steelbook will have the same Blu-ray

Extras are also good

I think the UK/US amarays both had slipcovers, [/QUOTE]

The U.K. Amaray certainly came with a slipcover, and very nice it is too with EVERY WORD of the TITLE EMBOSSED.
P.S. Exact same images front and back on wraparound data sheet.

That's beautiful, thanks for sharing that. I was looking for an unboxing video/pics on Google but to no avail. The UK Blu-ray with slipcover must be quite rare to source.

ONCE APON A TIME IN THE WEST
".... apon confirming your booking, you will be .... or .....upon confirming your booking...
what is correct? what is the difference between apon and upon? I always thought apon means "once" and upon means "on top of, over and above)Can someone help me?"

. .. or, according to the Urban Dictionary:-
"APON
Slang for upon".
LOL

I've never see "Apon" used. Urban Dictionary = slang = incorrect. It's "Upon". If you went by the Urban Dictionary, it would be deemed O.K. to "Axe" someone a question.

 

[virkia]

LOL. Never seen it used either - and I was educated here - was surprised when I seen (sic) it in the Zavvi listing for the tit-el.
"Axs" - thanks again Urban Dictionary -
AKS
What retards say when they don't know how to pronounce the word ask.
"Yo dogg... I gotta aks you a question."

If anyone is wondering what in tarnation is going on here they should check out the Zavvi listing for this steelbook - they will then come across ONCE APON A TIME IN THE WEST.

Points to you for going to look up 'AKS'!! (And a pretty funny explaination there!)
Extra points for using the word 'Tarnation'!!

EDIT- when I pugged in Apon at Zavvi - I did not get that movie....BUT I did get Sgt. APONe's dog tags from ALIENS!! Sweeet!
