OK Boys, let’s play a little trivia!

correct. I believe this was his last movie

The Shootist was John Wayne's last movie.

The movie Cowboys was supposed to have been his last movie, however public outcry over the way his character was killed, and after all he is John Wayne an American icon, Hollywood went to work on a movie that would appease the American public, for a more appropriate ending of an elite American {movie} icon.

I find the ending shootout in The Shootist a bit ironic as John Wayne's character is killed, shot in the back by a cowardly barkeeper using a short barreled shotgun. When he and the other last of the gunslingers could have all easily gone done in the hales of bullets being fired.
 
I stumped the great TC! Yes lol

It’s from 1995 but the characters were talking about their youth. It’s a great movie if you haven’t seen it “Things to do in Denver when you’re dead”

+1 with TC. Never heard of this titled movie. I hope the movie is better than the title.

Great movie! Insanely good cast!
Andy Garcia, Christopher Walken, James Caan, Steve Buscemi, Christopher Lloyd, William Forsythe, Treat Williams, Don Cheadle, and many more so you know the acting is great!!!
 
“I was an equal opportunity merchant of death. I supplied everyone but the Salvation Army. I sold Israeli-model Uzis to Muslims. I sold Communist-made bullets to Fascists... I even shipped cargo to Afghanistan when they were fighting my fellow Soviets. I never sold to Osama bin Laden. Not on any moral grounds: back then, he was always bouncing checks”

Lords of war been waiting for that to come up , always got a kick out of watching the Africans strip the airplane.

Wow, I know what I’m queuing up this weekend.
 
Here’s a great one for you all!

“Out of order, I show you out of order. You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I'd show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too f**ckin' blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I'd take a FLAMETHROWER to this place!”
 
This ain't pool. This is for bangers. Straight pool is pool. This is like hand-ball, or cribbage, or something. Straight pool, you gotta be a real surgeon to get 'em, you know? It's all finesse. Now, every thing is nine-ball, 'cause it's fast, good for T.V., good for a lot of break shots... Oh, well. What the hell. Checkers sells more than chess.

Well, you are white and I'm black. See Jake, you think just like them, that's why I picked you; you are one of them

Hemmingway "Out of Africa" dinner for our clients

We love going the extra mile for our clients. The best feeling in the world is our clients going "Wow! this is amazing thank you"
Having had a successful hunt, having happy clients leave camp. There is nothing better.
Knowing that they will return again next year as a friend.
