So which is it? Personally I like the fist full of dollars for wit, last man standing for violence, and Yojimbo because it is awesome

I loved fist full of dollars for the wit sure but the pacing and just everything seemed to come together and was perfect. I don't even know the other two :confused:

Much as I love Fistful of Dollars, Yojimbo definitely has the edge. Last Man Standing isn't in the frame.

Am I gonna look like an idiot if I ask what these choices are?

Well, yojimbo, fist full of dollars, and last man standing are the chronological adaptations of the same story. Yojimbo was the first by Akira Kurosawa, Fist full of dollars was a different take on the story, and the same for Last amn stanidng.

Yojimbo is set in old Japan, Fist full of dollars is set in the old west, and Last man standing is set in prohibition texas.

All adaptations of a Raymond Chandler novel called Red Harvest, if what I hear is correct.

Does Last Man Standing have Bruce Willis in it?

I've seen it, but it's been awhile, and I don't remember it having the strongest effect on me at the time. I may have to try again.

I usually like movies where the hero walks in, kills half the population (well in this case like 90%) and then leaves...all with some meaning behind it.

they're all better off dead... :D

I think the only one I've ever heard of it's the Fist one... but I don't think I've ever seen it.
