I am very happy that Outland is in this list. For me it is the very definition of "non-western-westerns".

Pol x, I don't think anyone made the assertion that the westerns were made first.

7 samurai and Yojimbo were both remade as westerns not the other wat round.

I love both Seven Samurai and The Magnificent Seven, for different reasons; however, the theme to M7 never fails to get me motivated to 'rastle up some bad guys. jessleigh, don't tell me he doesn't even like Blazing Saddles! By the way, what kind of films does your guy like? War flicks perhaps? Kelly's Heroes kind of mixes the rough and tumble feel of a western (and has Clint to boot!), with bits of comedy and heist-flick tension in a WWII setting. If he hasn't seen it, check it out!

I'm very sorry Jess, but your guy is gay.

This isn't me talking, it's the law. If a guy doesn't like westerns or samurai flicks, he is, quite literally, days away from choosing china patterns and wearing womens clothes.

The Magnificent Seven is a Western.

The Seven Samurai is a Eastern.

Seven Samurai is the same as The Magnificent Seven. That's why it seems like a western. They made the magnificent seven after seeing the success that Seven Samurai had.

Yeah! Takeshi Miike's Sukiyaki Western:Django takes inspiration from this movie too.

And check out also "The fort of death" !

Seven Samurai reminds me of a good Western.
