This is a great choice. The composer Stephen Rennicks is a friend of my wife's, so we have the lyrics to the song about the little tuft of carpet from Frank framed on our wall

Those were feature length! Macross Plus was a series of four 30 minute episodes. Some OVAs are movies, but Macross Plus wasn’t.

So I love the game Red Dead Redemption 2. Like, a lot. I've never been a big Western fan, though. In a way, I feel like some of what draws me to RDR2 is kinda what drew me to Pirates of the Caribbean, even when I was too young to really understand it. It's not like I love cowboys and pirates, it's more that feeling of...loss. Of an old world fading away or being destroyed, and our heroes are relics of a bygone age fighting against it all.

I say all this, but I have been thinking I'd try to get into some Westerns. Just curious if any of you would suggest any with this same "feeling."

Or not. Maybe Westerns with entirely different feelings. I'm thinking I'll get this John Wayne/John Ford collection.

Once Upon a Time in the West by Sergio Leone. One of the central elements is a train being built, symbolizing civilization coming, therefore bringing the death of the Old West.

I think it's interesting how "Death of the West" is actually the main theme in most of what we think of as "The Great Westerns". Like they're acknowledging that what they're creating is a myth while they create it. (See: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance). A counterpoint "birth of the West" movie might be How The West Was Won but ultimately I think it's more interesting for audiences to contemplate the fall of an era than the rise of one.

Especially as you get into the late 60s like The Searchers, which seek to expose and criticize the racism and brutality of the "old west" while also conducting plenty of their own 60s-flavored racism.

Also, not a movie, but there's a 24-hour The Rifleman channel on PlutoTV and The Rifleman kicks all kinds of rear end.

OVA's, at least back in the golden age, tended to look expensive and well produced. Netflix struggles to make $100 Million dollar movies that don't look like student films.

For years I had no clue what an OVA was supposed to be, so I thought people were referring to random anime movies as, like, an egg?

Turns out that was fully accurate.

I think it has the best shot in any Western, when Claudia Cardinale first arrives and enters the town and the camera follows and then pans up over the roof and you get a view of the whole town. The shot starts at about 3min here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdL__zuZvpA&t=244s

Back to the Future 3 has a shot in it that I've always assumed was a direct reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rUpMRSTcNs
