  1.  @davidlyon1899  not quite. Let's call it a paraphrase. "All right, I'm coming out. Any man I see out there, I'm gonna shoot him. Any sumbitch takes a shot at me, I'm not only gonna kill him, but I'm gonna kill his wife, all his friends, and burn his damn house down." --Will Munny

  2.  @birchvand  Will was just lucky. There may not be any random chance in this Universe but from our perspective most everything seems that way to us. As we cannot know every detail that makes events occur. So from a practical standpoint we need to just chalk it up to dumb luck. You can certainly try to guide your fate but you have to consider what happened to all of Will's victims. It didn't work for them. They were all decidedly unlucky.

  3. Well he is Clint Eastwood.

  4.  @birchvand  but like many rumors there may have been no bearing on fact. Still the movie does bring it up for a good reason. It could very well have been the case. You are supposed to examine it at face value too. And as such accept it as fact. Which is certainly how I view it.

  5.  @secondcomingofbast9908  maybe you missed the time dimension of the film? Most of it occurred years after the loss of his wife. The whole Civil War happened. Where I'm sure Josie experienced all kinds of loss. Until he was numb. That is the psyche exploration you crave.

  6. Clint must have been paying some attention when he acted in many of them.

  7.  @MikeMartin-ot9ic  does it and does he? Perhaps you and I watched different movies? Because in the movie I watched Will couldn't even hit a can right in front of him with a pistol and couldn't mount a horse either. Will freely admits himself that he was always just lucky. So the movie comes right out and actually states it. "I was lucky in the order, but I've always been lucky when it comes to killin' folks." That's a direct quote from the movie in question. So you just keep right on saying different. It makes you special.

  8. I never met a Clint Eastwood movie that I didn't like.

  9. I saw Outlaw when it came out on the big screen. And I do mean a really big screen. Not one of these little Cineplex theaters. They didn't even exist back then.

  10.  @secondcomingofbast9908  I get that you didn't get it. We can move on now.

  11.  @anthonyfmoss  how you best react depends on circumstances. Sometimes getting mean is the solution. Sometimes cooler heads prevail. Often I get mean then calm down and figure things out myself.

  12.  @anthonyfmoss  I saw Outlaw in the theater when it came out. So I can't remember all of it today. It was 44 years ago now after all. A few other things have happened between then and now.

  13. It is right up there with bad things happen to good people.

  14. Someone told Clint Eastwood that the western genre was dead. Clint replied, Hold my reins.
