...not quite as fanatically.Your post got to thinking why? - and I have to admit, I think they are *both* great westerns.
Perhaps it's the outstanding supporting cast in One-Eye that makes multiple viewings a pleasure. Not to mention the lines like "you gob a spit!" and "looks like you're the one with a gut Lon!"
There's nothing wrong with the arm wrestling match over the scorpions in The Appaloosa and I love how Matt Fletcher always seems to lose. Not a typical western script where four bad guys get gunned down in a gun draw quicker then the blink of an eye.
