6. "Johnny Tyler! You madcap!"
Tombstone. Val as Doc. The scene where he mocks Ringo's gunplay with his shot glass. Awesome.

"I have not yet begun to defile myself"

11. Original title: "You think 'Spock's Brain' sucked? Watch THIS."
Actually I thought for a momement you meant 'Hour of the Gun,' which actually was pretty good-- one of two times James Garner played Wyatt Earp.

12. There have been so many
and they all play so loose with the facts.

I mean, c'mon! Fred White was only thirty years old when he was killed, not an old man.

13. At least "Tombstone" got the terrain right. It was filmed thirty or so miles from the real
Tombstone in the south Arizona mountains; it shows Tombstone's mountainous location perfectly. "Wyatt Earp" was filmed in the prairie region of South Dakota, and the same set stood in for both Dodge City, Kansas, and Tombstone, Arizona. Now, with Dodge City, that plains-flat location made some sense. With Tombstone, which is supposed to be hedged in by mountains, it was just a distraction.

14. yep one small scene was done on our place
I've only seen it once so I didn't catch it. Most was filmed at Mescal - they never got near Tombstone itself.
