WYATT EARP (TRIBUTE)

[case91503]

I love westerns, Costners' version is all about Wyat, The other has the awesome supporting cast.

[1hogfan83]

i want two bumper stickers for my truck, one for each side. one says "all of you can kiss my rebel dick!" and the other says "my mom always told me never put off killin someone tomarrow, someone you can kill today!"

[ranamuhammadatif]

I don't believe there is any other Western that has better cinematography than this. This is the climax. There were exceptional Westerns produced during the 50s and 60s but technology had advanced by leaps and bounds when Wyatt Earp was made. The other new great Westerns astounding visuals are Open Range and Tombstone. Too bad Hollywood has ignored this great genre. These Westerns with "natural" scenes look much better than the heavily green tinted modern productions.

[supercarXXX]

You Yanks are all strange. Your gun toting ethic has not changed for 200 years.

[madman2u]

Remember i saw this movie a few years back, recently at the TV as well, never saw the full one. The hour i watched it was great, i will get this movie and enjoy it this Friday with a pizza and a cold soda. Cheers and thanks for the tribute!

[TerryT420]

Quaid was better than Kilmer. Quaid's Doc was mean, nasty, and honorable. He was bitter about being sick, and arrogant for being smarter.

Kilmer was too much of a pretty boy. Too polite and smug. The real Doc Holliday was probably the biggest asshole of the west!

[awriter4theman]

The titles WYATT EARP and Tombstone should never be said in conjunction with one another. WE is the classic epic story while whishy-washy TS only addresses the issue of the OK Corral. WE hits on the real people with a broader scope. It's beautiful and has a great soundtrack to boot. It's simply THE BEST, better than all the rest.

[SirLesful]

Gentleman, guns of those times and now when fired give a recoil. If not aimed properly you will miss your target even a few feet away. When I fire pistols in the service I found this out and was amazed on how you can miss if you don;t aim and squeeze the triger and not jerk it. These are all factors in firing weapons. The colt 45 was a very accurate weapon when aimed and fired correctly. A person who does not panic underfire and takes the time to aim will usually win.

[MaxPayne567]

You know people will always debate which is better Wyatt Earp or Tombstone, i personally believe Wyatt Earp is far superior but Tombstone is really good too. I'm a Costner and Quaid fan, and Lawrence Kasdan is one of my all time favorite directors so WE is definately my choice between the two.

[TheSilentOne50]

I FUCKIN LOVE DOC HOLIDAY !!!!!!!!!

[whitt702]

Historians tell us the Earps never used those fancy movie holsters, but actually carried their guns in their coat pockets or the waist belt.

[rangeclerk]

@whitt702 At the time of the 'shootout' they had their wpns moved there handguns toward the small of their back when Behan talked to them as they walked to where the 'Cow Boys' were at. The positioning of their wpns is very much like modern Law Enforcement Detectives/Undercover Officers do today. Over the yrs all sorts of silly positions were suggested by so-called-"firearm-experts" which caused many police officers to get killed.

Today LE is back to using the tech of the Earps and others.

[BoldReiver]

By the way, nice tribute! ;-)

[ltuomela]

Wyatt Earp never even got glanced by a bullet in his life time..died of old age..amazing life story he had..

[Yambeau]

I will never get over Dennis Quaid's portrayal of Doc Holliday. Doc Holliday, now there was a tragic figure.  Born a Southern gentlemen with all the manners and education that went with it. Contracted TB from his own mother. Had to watch her die with it, then discovered he had it himself. Headed to Arizona for his health. No fear in gunfights, why would he have? Wanted to die in a blaze of glory instead of in slow lingering agony. Ended up dying that way in a hospital bed, anyway.

[couragio235]

Awesome movie!!!

[StChiara]

Love it!

[hobosrule88]

TOMBSTONE IS WAY BETTER!!!!

[savimaharaj73]

great tribute. Wonderful and oscar award hero with others. Well deserved... Go Kev. Bud everything you touch turns to gold.... luv yuh...

[wyo13]

Im named after him

[wyguy3]

i was named after him

[frenchprincess11]

@wyguy3 OMG!!!! My bf was named after him!!! How random is that?? haha

[bobbydloya]

The Movie Wyatt Earp was more accurate re: the OK corral gunfight; both the Wyatt Earp Movie and Tombstone were inaccurate about Virgi'ls wounding (December 1881) and Morgan's assasination (March 1882). The Movie Tombstone did a better job of portraying Virgil Earp however (thanks, Sam Elliot)

[Earpx3]

my family is kinned to him.he is like my great great great grandfather i think.sweet :)

[couragio235]

Wyatt Earp has to be, in my book, one of the most induring figures of 'ALL TIME'. R.I.P. Mr.Earp!

[nbahistorian23]

Wyatt Earp and the Godfather Part 1 were my 2 favorite movies and the 2 best i ever saw.

[nbahistorian23]

IMO Wyatt Earp the movie in 1994 is leaps and bounds ahead of Tombstone which was made sometime in 1993. I couldn't understand why Wyatt was so up beat and happy in Tombstone.

[Starkiller830]

I preferd Tombstone.

[fastonthedraw]

Mmmmmmm....experts...!!!eh...

[valor465]

IM NAMED AFTER WYATT ERP :D

[wyatt8799]

sooo ammm iii :D

[Kotori32]

Who's "Wyatt Erp"?

[frenchprincess11]

OMG!!!! My bf was to!!!! How awesome is that?? haha

[kportjewboy]

Wyatt Earp was a historical and entertaining retelling of the OK Corral. Tombstone the movie was silly and stupid. Wyatt Earp crying on Allen Street ! Get real !

[tankboy2k]

I liked Wyatt Earp, but it wasn't all that factual as one might think. But, neither was Tombstone. If you could combine the two movies facts... It would be about 95% accurate.

[beretta1342000]

I loved Wyatt Earp! It was awesome and much more real than Tombstone. Better told story. The story at the end of the movie about the guy Wyatt Earp saved from the mob.Tommy Behin The Duce. That is a true story. He really did save him. Also, the part about Bat Masterson shoting the guy in Sweetwater. When Doc asked him that. That really happened too.

[MyName42]

Yeah, the thing about Wyatt Earp is it's a real biopic, trying to be a realistic depiction of actual events, not a traditional western. It's not trying to be an action movie, and it's shoot-outs reflect this, being very sudden, short, unstylized, claustrophobic, and realistic. Beautiful cinematography and score, too. It's flawed, but much better than the schizophrenically-directed Tombstone. --But Wyatt probably had his bro and another guy with him when he saved Johnny-Behind-the-Deuce.

[KGBfbiSECUpolitia]

0:42 there is a NATURAL/Nature RESERVATION/Park in Romania (not far away from Nadia Comaneci's former Gymnastics Gym) where there are buffallos (wild OXes?!?!).

Did James (Jim) Caviezel have a big part/role? I doN't want to buy it to look at Kevin Costner or Dennis Quaid whom I doN't like even though they are good +doN't advertise coffee or Martini , etc like clown george clooney

[angustus5]

Kilmers "Doc" was the best....Quaids was a laugh...like trying to compare Nicholsons "Joker" to Ledgers "Joker"..Kilmer rocked as Doc

[MitsuGTO885]

Kilmer was a joke, the day he delivered the cheesy dialogue was almost parody like. But its the entire movie honestly. "Tombstone" is the hollywood matiné version of the Wyatt Earp story. "Wyatt Earp" the movie is a bit more serious is its tone. Dennis Quaids performance is way more convincing and truer to the character. When Quaid coughs you can really feel the tuberculosis.

And kids like you who prefer Ledgers joker were never Batman fans to begin with. Jack captured the comic character.

[slb928]

Excellent movie!

[budsaplenty]

Quaid was Holliday!.. Kilmer was the Doc we wanted to see...

[danielv1685]

tombstone was a GLITZY movie movie...where WYATT EARPP was the REAL deal

[JDMorris81]

@danielv1685 Wyatt Earp was a more accurate story but I still think that Kurt Russel's portrayal of Wyatt Earp was much more accurate than Kevin Costner. At least he wore a hat closer to the real Wyatt Earp's and managed to have the right mustache. That and something about a crazed man with a shotgun yelling "You tell em I'm coming and hell's coming with me! is just hard not to like. lol

[johncashrocks221]

@danielv1685 although in tombstone, the actors looked like the real guys

[awriter4theman]

The Wyatt Earp cast reigns supremely over anything Tombstone has to offer. Come on. It's not rocket science to see how perfectly everybody fit into their roles. Excellen movie.

[danielv1685]

both awsome movies...wyatt earpp is better though....because its more realistic....if not perfect.....both quaid and kilmer are great too........

[jacknapier37]

dennis quaid est définitivement le meilleur "doc holliday"de l,histoire du cinéma. val kilmer ressemble a un poupon bien nourri, et surement pas a un tubar en fin de vie!!

[ellstromp]

Brilliant film, brilliant cast.

[TimGXR750]

Iv'e seen TombStone and Wyatt Earp.....Wyatt Earp kicks the shit out of tombstone!!! More detail better soundtrack....Kevin C. Dennis Quaid killed it in this movie...Great performance by both!!!!

[Nutkin57]

Val Kilmer all the way.

[fastonthedraw]

In all honesty..you cannot separate Val Kilmers performance and that of Dennis Quaid...the lines that Val had were..fantastic...and correct for the period...and Dennis looked the part..100%,two great films documenting a part of the West..which has become legend..through Wyatt ,Doc,..and his brothers...Wyatt and Josephine Sarah,,,,remembered always..R.I.P...

[namathguarantee12]

Anybody who thinks that Val Kilmer was the BEST Doc Holliday is WRONG. Need some proof that Dennis Quaid was the SUPERIOR Doc Holliday? WHO thinks Val Kilmer is a BETTER actor than Dennis Quaid?!

[couragio235]

Dennis Quaid was 'BY FAR' the 'BEST' Doc Holliday every seen on film - period!!!

[couragio235]

Awesome tribute to a Great man - I loved this movie & all that it stood for!!!

[dizman19]

what scene is 1:41?

[couragio235]

That's after they killed Ed (bat's brother) & wyatt earp came to town to kick some butt!!!

[dizman19]

i know that now bc i bought the movie last week

[brooktroutfilms]

OBAMA AS WYATT EARP

Music from King Arthur.

[CsWyattCs]

proud to be named after him

[frenchprincess11]

Wat is up wit all these ppl bein named after him?? Ur named afetr him, 3 ppl who commented, an my bf were named after him. Really Random...haha

[fastonthedraw]

MandeMovie ..go and let loose with a Colt SAA 1873..45 Calibre..the things kicks in your hand like .nothing you could imagine..!!

[ManDeMovie]

Ok at the final battle how the hell do you miss when wyatt earp is standing like 2 feet away and without bullets????????

[BULLETPROOFGONG]

You have a lot to learn, the advisors on the movie taught all the actors that the guns of the time were very unaccurate.

Read any history on weaponry of the west and you will find this to be true.

Guns would fire sharply to the left or right often missing the target stood just a few feet away.

Costner adopted a real sense of realism on this film.

Unlike far fetched gun slinging rootin tootin goodies an baddies.

[ltuomela]

@BULLETPROOFGONG that's a fact sir...we have a ole 1880's piece maker here from my grandfather still shoots and all..cant hit a damn thing with it..lol..they missed fired all the time to, the ole timers use to tell me and my father which i am now passing down to my kids..that ole gun is something else i also have a scatter gun,"shotgun" from this era that thing kicks like a mule man..whew...10 gauge... i would have carried one of them instead of a pistol back then..cant miss..lol..

[BoldReiver]

@BULLETPROOFGONG -- guns of the era might also shoot high or low at certain ranges. Case in point: I have a repro 3rd model Colt Dragoon that I've fired "live" with round ball at tin cans on a fence post. I'm a pretty good shot, and couldn't figure out why at 20 feet I couldn't hit the can, until I held down half way down the fence (below the can) & then sent the can flying!?!

Turns out (as I found out later) my pistol was made to sight at 50 feet dead on (as was the original)!

[BoldReiver]

@ManDeMovie -- also take into consideration the stress/fear factor in a shoot out. It's one thing to shoot tin cans, snakes, etc...but try having lead flying back at you. Believe me, it *WILL* affect accuracy! ;-)

[RobertWaltz]

@BULLETPROOFGONG Thanks for your enlightened reply to ManDeMovie. You are correct, sir. Guns of those days were very inaccurate, and most of the men who wore them couldn't shoot them anyway. Add the intensity of the situation (life and death), and it is very easy to miss. Having served in combat, and now a Cowboy Action shooter, I know of these things first-hand.

[drboroff]

This is the most asinine statement of firearms and shooting I have ever read.

IT obviously comes from someone who has never shot a gun in his life.

I own and have shot these 19th century weapons all my life, and the accuracy is as good and in many cases better than anything made today.

I have personally hit 1,000 yard targets with an 1874 sharps buffalo gun, and I can shoot 6 shots into a two inch circle with a 100 year old colt 45, You miss, due to stress and fear.

[balloonmonster]

the pistols only have a 50 foot range

[MACKINBLAK2896]

@ManDeMovie Guns back then were really inaccurate, thats why someone with a shotgun would be more dangerous than the fastest gun ever, you don't miss with buckshot.

[RobertWaltz]

@ManDeMovie Not that it matters now, having been two years ago, but if you choose, please read my reply to BULLETPROOFGONG regarding your question. Having studied western American history for years, I have learned that there were many many more misses than hits in close range gun fights (not that there were that many gun fights in the first place).

[westernmortician5959]

Virgil Morgan Wyatt and Doc Holliday 4 great men

[blackeyejim]

Don't forget Bat Masterson

[punkteeninc2]

and Ed

[megaearp]

Oh, boo hoo. I've touched a nerve. Give your whining to someone who cares kiddo. Perhaps your mother or a tree? Bugger off.

[megaearp]

Actually, its, "They're"

[megaearp]

It's spelled "Their".

Do us all a favor and put yourself on ice until 2110.

Asshole.

[garzarodriguez10]

es una de mis mejores peliculas

[megaearp]

Thank you for what you did Wyatt. You and John Henry Holliday. Most people don't know it to the extent, but thank you.

Sleep peacefully until the day of resurrection!

[fastonthedraw]

Posted...26 October 2008....remembering that day in 1881..26 October..at 2.45pm...!!

[goerge44]

what was the video clips?

[PrivateZaspel]

I feel sad because my name is Wyatt to im not Lieing I swear!

[frenchprincess11]

Dont feel bad i have found so many ppl on here who are named after him. heck even my bf is named after him. haha

[ReservoirPunk]

*and were he says he doesnt have any friends

But Dennish Quiad did him better in action scenes, such as the part were Doc nearly has a fight with I think its Ike Clanton in the bar and Morgan splits it up, also Dennis Quiad looks alot more like him then Val, hard to say who did it better, i'd give both actors a 9/10 for their performances, I think they both did it very acurate in most scenes, but who in the world will ever get it perfect? Overall I think they did just as good as eachother

[ReservoirPunk]

It's really hard to say who played Doc Holliday better, cos alot of people say Dennis Quiad acted more like him, then alot of people say Val Kilmer did, well here what I think, Val Kilmer did a really good job, and he portrayed him very well in some elements, like Val did Doc very good in emotional scenes, like the part were he dies, or were he is sick in bed, and were he says he doesn't have any friends (I'm running out of character count so i'll continue on the next comment)...

[couragio235]

Awesome tribute!!!

[ascanio125]

it's finer with the original spond track,it is always the great history of West.

[reddevils508]

While Tombstone and Wyatt Earp are both great films, there are two things that bother me about them and if these were merged, you would have the ultimate Earp movie.

1. Kurt Russell looked EXACTLY like Wyatt, but Costner acted like What Wyatt would have been like.

2. The OK corral fight in Wyatt Earp was almost exactly how it went down, shot for shot. while Tombstone had more liberties and "Hollywood" in it. 3. Sam Elliott is a stronger Virgil than Michael Madsen. But both are great movies

[ricored92]

Have you seen the series "The wild west" theres a wonderfull documantaire about wyatt earp.

[kelly700red]

Dennis Quaid represents Doc the way it should be.Val is winkin an throwin his cape of like freakin Capt America.Nothin of substance in vals performance,not his fault,just HOLLYWOOD on the mainline

[solcamiloandres]

no es el original

[countrysamurai]

Brilliant film and moving tribute! My God...can you believe this man lived until 1929? My own father could have met him...dad would have been near 10 to 12 years old! This is one of my all time faves!

[megaearp]

Not only that, but John Clum the mayor lived until 1932, Big Nose Kate lived until 1941, Josie lived until 1944 and Allie Earp lived until 1947, the last to go and just 21 days shy of her 100th birthday. There are plenty of people still alive who know Wyatt Earp and his wife as well as Allie Earp and Big Nose Kate.

[randy13151]

yeah after this show I had to go out and buy some guns used in this movie, oh yeah I live only 150 miles away from Tombstone I dress up for many of the action days as doc tough and ready for anything so they say oh yeahhhhhh

[blackeyejim]

me and wyatt earp are alike a lot

1: same first name=Wyatt

2: same first and last initials= W.E.

3: born in same month=Earp-Mar.18-me-Mar.13

[indiopower3]

I cant stop washing

[Cromulus420]

Best part of the movie at 1:51 when Ed gets murdered. I love the telegram: "Request you return immediately"

[BROCOCK]

Wyatt ..you and your brothers...and John Henry..remembered always..!!Rest in Peace..with Josephine Sarah...

[desertspawn]

Amen!

[FalconSupreme1]

I have truely enjoyed this masterpiece.

[BULLETPROOFGONG]

Thank you

[gragrn]

Great video, you did an excellent job. Both movies, Wyatt Earp and Tombstone are worthy representations of the events leading up to and following the "street fight",as Wyatt usually referred to it as.

[BULLETPROOFGONG]
