"you're a daisy if you do"... "I'm your huckleberry" ..... "Say When"......Doc had all the best lines in this entire movie! I fell in love with him in this!
While you are correct that someone else wrote the lines, the magic is all in the delivery. Kilmer nailed it, making lines that could have sounded cheesy or confusing sound perfect. That is what great acting is all about. It is more than just reading what is written, it is in his body language, facial expressions, tone and accent. IMO no one could have delivered htose lines better than Kilmer in this movie.
rick Kennedy- Here's the thing. While you're correct that the actor brings the lines to life, it's the lines themselves which are the foundation of the creative endeavor. We'll never know how another actor might have handled those lines. You say only Val could have delivered them as such... Okay, sure, why not? But out of a hundred other actors, known and unknown, who really knows? There might have been some unknown genius out there that made this performance look like amateur hour. My original point being, the actor gets all the glory, but the writer puts in the most important work. Everybody wants to see another film with Val after this performance. Hardly anyone seeks out a movie by the same screenwriter. It's kind of a drag for the writers, but oh well... That's Life!
yes indeed - its a fantastic film not just for a western but for a film in general......its near flawless! Val was EPIC as Doc - his demeanour was exactly as you would imagine Doc Holiday to be....and not to mention Kurt as Wyatt - he was so convincing. The sharp one liners in this film should make it one of the most referenced films in history :)
@j Smith BRAD PITT cant act for shit - he is so OVERRATED! val has been hit and miss but defo the better actor plus he has something pitt cant buy with all his millions.....CHARISMA!
I love that throughout the movie Doc is totally a shadow of fear. His intelligence and skill make him a force even his friends approach with caution when in a drunken state. And when he's lucid hes like a walking undertaker. At the very end you can see Ringos true feelings surface when he says he was just messing about. Under all the cool from the beginning everyone was aware you dont fuck with Doc Holiday.
A big part of that is that he didn’t fear death, in fact he welcomed it. As man with his disease was just a walking corpse eventually, he knew it was simply inevitable, and viewed it almost as a death wish, he played this well by showing people that he didn’t really care if he lived or died during an encounter. So people naturally began to grow cautious of the man, especially when it involved violence.
@@MrWizeazz that’s why his last words were “I’ll be damned, this is funny” he had always thought he’d die with his boots on in battle or dead from alcohol poisoning, not from the TB
The mustaches deserved an oscar as well as Val Kilmer. The chemistry is off the charts. This movie could have been called Testosterone. Most quotable movie ever
Straight up robbed. This movie and kilmer's character have stood the test of time. Speaking of, kilmer didnt even get an oscar nod. Oscars are a joke and have been political for a long time. Goodfellas and tombstone were robbed at the Oscars thier respective years.
Val Kilmer gave one of the best performances in motion picture history and did not even get a nod from the academy. Everyone who saw this film would agree with me I'm sure.
let my just state my best quotes for you fine people it might help in this situation =) ......🧔 "I'll be your huckleberry." i say this line all the time and It signifies my willingness to take on a challenge or engage in a fight against false truth and bullies "My hypocrisy goes only so far." This quote reflects the self-awareness of my own flaws and contradictions helping me in judging others as myself "It appears my hypocrisy knows no bounds." this is a variation of the previous quote, this line showcases my recognition of my own contradictions and complexities as a drunk and helps me not to judge people too harshly "I'm your huckleberry. That's just my game." Similar to the first quote, this line demonstrates my willingness to face adversaries and engage in confrontations with the unknown "All I want is revenge." This quote encapsulates my driven and vengeful nature often attributed to my name but only against people that don't accept my views and don't respect my free speech
A man stole a 12 pack of beer from my backyard in the middle of the night while my family slept, he was hanging w us but decided to go back after we called it a night. When I caught up to him three months later I pulled him out of his truck and slap lord the shit out of him a few times and quoted this very line. I felt EPIC.
Kurt Russell "secretly" directed this movie, after the original director was fired. Kurt reshaped the entire movie and made it a story about two best friends. Every scene where Wyatt is in some kind of trouble or shootout, the first person to show up is Doc. Doc loved Wyatt like a brother, but Wyatt is portrayed as a little 'unaware' of this. Wyatt gets the hint when he tells Doc, "This isn't your fight, Doc". Doc was extremely offended and said "That is a HELL of a thing for you to say to me!". After the ensuing shootout, where Doc had Wyatt’s back, Wyatt finally understands the unspoken love and unwavering loyalty that Doc had for him. From then on, it's the Wyatt and Doc show. Kurt etches this theme in stone with the sanitorium scene. Wyatt presents Doc with the book, which is a straight-up love letter (and secured Doc's place in history). Then, Wyatt can't bring himself to leave his 'brother' there to die alone. He does so only out of the monumental respect he has for Doc and his tearful request to do so. Wyatt leaves with the greatest compliment Doc, a man who had no friends, could hope to hear, "Thanks for always being there, Doc". It's a soft, touching, and thunderous scene.
So, Historian Here. This movie is the most accurate version of the OK Corral I've seen. Accounts state that had Doc not been there, the fight may not have happened. Virgil and Wyatt were deadset on disarming the Clantons, not a gunfight. Doc antagonized Ike Clanton (Who was, in reality, armed) into drawing.
Agreed. It's such a great moment that rings true today. There are so many encounters with law enforcement where someone escalates an already dangerous situation and everything goes to hell. Here we have a moment where no one (save Doc), really wants a full on shoot out which could get them killed. But Doc is only a few months from death anyway and he's more than happy to be the straw that breaks the camel's back.
@@NickKnutson97 One detail they get wrong is that the Earps already had their guns drawn (most likely holding them at their sides). This seemingly small advantage was arguably a big part of why they suffered so few injuries and the cowboys (who had to actually draw their guns), suffered so many. There's also an interesting theory that the cowboys may have been trying to disarm and the Earps mistakenly thought they were drawing to shoot them. Virgil testified that he said, "Throw up your hands - I want your guns!" The problem, of course, is that you can't keep your hands up while you're throwing down your guns. Because Ike Clanton had been wandering around town telling everyone that he and the cowboys were going to fight the Earps, it's totally possible that the Earps were now so prepared for a fight that they didn't realize that Billy may have been trying to surrender. Of course, no one can really say since we weren't there. What the film does get 100% right is that Ike, the person perhaps most reasonable for stirring everyone up for a fight and creating the situation, totally chickened out when the shooting started and ran away, claiming he was unarmed. There's clearly some kind of lesson to be found here about those who want to act tough and, by doing so, end up getting other people killed.
Val Kilmer forever changed my vision of Doc Holiday. The bar for that role can never be met by any actors living now or in the future. What an actor and the role of a lifetime.
One of the best movies ever. I watched it with father when he was sick - he died a few days later. I couldn't bare to watch it for almost 23 years after, until I watched it with my son when he was 17. It was still just as great.
I know what that's like. I lost my father last Christmas. We were supposed to watch a televised Neil Young concert, but my dad went into coma few hours prior, and died a week later. Haven't been able to watch it, yet have it saved on my PVR. RIP to both of them

“Now get the hell outa Dodge” Believe me, I CAN say that. Im from and live in the greatest little cowtown in the west, where I call home. And yes we do still ride horses down dirt roads. And also cars. On asphalt, concrete, and bricks (it’s the worst). We aren’t that uncivilized
brenex415 415 you can talk however you like. We can even play for blood lunger. I always talk in a way that is out of place with the times. My go to introduction is greetings. "Greetings" sounds some where between a country western and an alien invasion.
Val Kilmer played the definitive version of Doc Holliday. His portrayal of this fearless man slowly dying of consumption was perfect, yet he was ignored for an Academy award. Superb acting in a superb film.
I like his role in that, but I have to believe that Dennis Quaid as Doc Holiday in "Wyatt Earp" was much more historically accurate in regards to authenticity of the character, the story, and of the times. I truly enjoy both movies but personally I like Quaid's version better.
Actually, he was not ignored. He was not a member of the Academy and you have to be to get nominated for an Oscar. Val did not want to join the academy because he thought it was too political. He may have joined since the movie. My friend worked with him on the movie 'Heat' and Val told him this.
@Steve L and @neckbreakerlifetaker HA! Finally someone else who noticed! Additionally, earlier in the stand off with Ringo... Michael Biehn and Val Kilmer's flamboyant gun-spinning and reciprocating shot tin spinning. If you're a fan of the movie, you've likely tried to imitate the motions and realize how damn difficult it is.
I read this comment by someone who realized that while everyone else was going "Wow" at' Ringo's show, Doc Holiday was carefully analyzing the speed and technique of Ringo's draw and after that knew exactly how fast Ringo was.
Thats the point of the whole scene casual viewers wont notice and just think its a cool little back and forth but in the context of the movie as a whole its really important. He learns all ringos tells like its a poker game.
I always took it as ringo trying to bait him to draw his gun and so a show and he would shoot him saying it was a fair fight, but doc had probably played that game already with someone else.
As amazing as Val Kilmer was as Doc Holliday, we need to note how superb Michael Biehn was as his foil, Johnny Ringo. Stephen Lang was his usual solid self as the cowardly Ike Clanton. And Sam Elliot? The voice, moustache, face...just exudes the essence of cowboy.
James Cameron was initially thinking of casting Biehn as Col. Miles Quaritch in “Avatar” but thought it might seem like too much of an “Aliens” reunion with Sigourney Weaver in the movie. So he switched to his second choice: Stephen Lang.
I once said that after I got wasted at a wedding and while my folks were driving me home I was seeing double. My coworkers still laugh when I tell that story
Yes I totally agree that Val's performance in this movie is spot on and oscar worthy, but can we ignore the fact that every cast on this movie is perfect? Even the bad guys, the cowboys. The script, the scenery. This movie is definitely on the top 5 in legendary movies of all time, if there are any.
@@Mr.StarsAndStripes1776 that alone in itself is why you strive to be like doc. life isnt something to be feared but instead something to behold and take hold of like a wild bull because you dont know when you'll be thrown off it like a case of bad fleas.
If you have not seen "New York 1997" yet, do so. Yes an old movie, but such a good one :) Also recommend the oldest "The thing". Both with Kurt Russels ofc.
i believe Doc said "I'm your huckle bearer". "I'm your huckleberry" theoretically means I'm the right man for the job. "I'm your huckle bearer" means I am your pallbearer which makes 100x more sense coming from a man who is there to kill you.
If you think back friend it's actually a callback to the first time he says it in the film when Wyatt and his brothers refuse to fight Johnny Ringo. As they walk away he shouts a great line after them: "You wretched slugs! Don't any of you have the guts to play for blood?" to which Doc replies "I'm your huckleberry" completely in line with the original meaning about being the man for the job. Everyone forgets the line in the showdown is referring back to the earlier one (besides it makes sense at the end too. Doc is the replacement in the final duel and Ringo is stood waiting for someone to show up). All that aside you can see the original script and it is 100% "huckleberry." Not sure how it has becone such a debating point tbh - the film is full of period slang. "Daisy" is another as is the slug line from Ringo - haha "slug" should make a comeback as an insult.
Apollo B. He didnt get the nomination because at the time Kilmer had a reputation for being difficult to work with, unpleasant on the set and a bit weird ( at one point he forbade people of certain astrological signs from being around him) .
That "I wasn't" when Ringo says he was just playing was *chef's kiss*. It showed us that he's barely keeping it together in his mind, dude was a killer and he knew it.
+Ken Davenport I thought all of them were superbly cast for this movie, but yes Kilmer was fantastic, but really this was just one of those rare perfect movies, not a dull moment and the inter actions between all the players , just so great !
Tuberculosis is definitely a huge part of what made Doc so dangerous. He was a dead man walking, and he knew it. That and the fact that he was brought up as a southern gentleman meant that he would not tolerate certain behavior.
JokersWild45 Doc lived each day as if it was his last. He was already facing the worst in his life with TB,,,so He had nothing to loose. I admire him for that. He made the Best of whatever was left.
Val, Doc Holiday, Kilmer totally made this movie. It would have been very good if he wasn't in it but he made it one of the best movies ever! This is a movie I will never get tired of! Damn he's good!!
Actually Kurt carried the movie from behind the camera. Production was falling apart and Kurt gave up scenes and helped with direction to make it work. Kilmer, I agree was totally screwed out of an Oscar.
Hands down, Vals best performance in my opinion. An inspiration. May he hopefully have a miracle recovery and come back to remake this masterpiece exactly as it was.
Please stop using the word underrated. He starred in a ton of films making money beyond our belief so apparently he wan NOT underrated. Thank you for your cooperation.
Please do not use the word underrated ever again on RUclips. He scored a boat-load of films after Tombstone’s release to act in so you’re way off-base. Thank you for your cooperation.
Kevin Jarre was the screenwriter who created this story and wrote so many of these wonderful lines for Tombstone. Several lines were added by Russell and Kilmer during shooting but the story and dialogue are still primarily Jarre's. Jarre passed in 2011, aged 56, of a heart attack. Please tip your hat to him!
@@mohammedcohen Can't believe it's taken 2 years for someone to answer your query but yes, they are related: Maurice Jarre married his mom and the stepson took his stepdad's last name.
you're forgetting the best scene that goes a little something like this, ahem. "The cowboys are finished you understand me? I see a red sash I kill the man wearing it, so run you curr! RUN! tell all the other currs the law is coming! YOU TELL 'EM I'M COMING! AND HELL'S COMING WITH ME YOU HEAR! *HELL'S COMING WITH ME!* "
I've seen this movie over 12 times.It was some of the best films and memories I shared with my grandpa Melroy Gerard Didier that raised me.unfornatuntly he is no longer alive but his spirit still lives on in me and I'm proud of that till this day.👌
"Maybe poker's just not your game, Ike... I know, let's have a spelling contest!" Possibly the greatest line in cinema history. Doc not only beats Ike, and takes his money. But he insults his intelligence all at the same time. Brilliant!
Rest in Peace Bill Paxton. Brilliant movie. Kilmer as Holiday was my favorite as a kid and still is. I constantly tell people that I am they're huckleberry or will be, at a later time.
Can we talk about Micheal Biehns performance too, everyone always praises Val Kilmer, and yes- this is by far his best acting in any movie, but i love love love Johnny Ringo too, everytime i think about that character I wish there was a back story to him, and Biehn played him with such intensity, he was fantastic in the role. They were perfect arch-enemies.
I love Michael Biehn, but everybody praises Doc not because it’s Val’s best role (which is debatable, he’s had many) but a role like Johnny Ringo’s really isn’t a hard role to play. A role like Doc Holliday and playing it WELL is a much harder feat to accomplish. Val could have easily played a role like Johnny Ringo in his sleep.
Every single actor was awesome in this film imho. But yeah, Val’s performance was the best in my book. Definitely deserved an Oscar nod, what a rip off. Great film, very memorable!
Since people keep mentioning the Oscars, the nominees for Best Supporting Actor in the 66th Academy Awards were: Tommy Lee Jones (The Fugitive), Leonardo DiCaprio (What's Eating Gilbert Grape), Ralph Fiennes (Schindler's List), John Malkovich (In the Line of Fire), & Pete Postlethwaite (In the Name of the Father).
Phenomenal list, eh? Tombstone is my favourite movie out of those and I love Kilmer's performance but Di Caprio's and Postlethwaite's were even better performances imo.
@@cpf6125 in my opinion Val's performance was way ahead of Tommy Lee Jones and Leonardo. Both great actors of course but those films weren't the best examples of their work.
No matter how many times I've watched this film...It always feels like the first time! Not only one of the best Westerns, but one of the best films, EVER!
“I got two guns. One for each of ya.” “Poor soul, you were just too high strung.” VK really looked like death in this. Between that, the gorgeous accent, amazing physicality, stole the movie for me.
The best movie ever! I have watched over and over. Val Kilmer stole the show. Superb acting from all. I'm your Huckleberry... Say when. Down by the creek probably walking on water. Just awesome. No one could have played Doc. Holiday any better
I introduced my late dad to this movie, he must have watched it a hundred times, he could recite every scene almost. How Val Kilmer got overlooked for an academy award I will never know. One of my all time favourite films

Facts. "You gonna do something or just stand there and bleed?" after slapping the soul out that man's body 💀 probably my favorite scene to re-watch over and over.
All the scenes are outstanding with outstanding actors. And my personal favorite Van Kilmer as Doc. Holiday stole the show. Seen this movie at least ten times.bit never gets old. Thanks so much for the upload. Might watch it again 😆
Most of these actors should have got an Emmy or what ever for this movie. This is one of the best historical “re-enactments” I have ever seen. I have lived in SW Kansas all my life and grew up knowing this history. I live just a little bit from the street name after Wyatt and Boothill Cemetery. This history runs thru me. “Get the hell outta Dodge” is one of the best sayings I know. It means “You don’t belong here, get lost before someone makes you disappear “

You know the truth!!
ABSOLUTELY
Grim poopy
Oh. I love the kilmer version. I just ordered the costner one...
You’d think one would be much better than the other but they were both great!

I agree, to me it's the best role by an actor I've seen period.
Val Kilmer’s performance in this movie is so intense he scares me. What a talented man he is.
One of the all time greats of our time for sure!!
Josephine Mateo Val’s and kurt’s performance.
Val was fabulous in this movie. "I'm your Huckleberry!" Love it.....
I literally found out today that he has his own RUclips channel
@Lee Judd Jesus dude, just as he said it in the movie. That was brilliant.
"I've only yet begun to defile myself" such an iconic line

One of the best movies ever. I watched it with father when he was sick - he died a few days later. I couldn't bare to watch it for almost 23 years after, until I watched it with my son when he was 17. It was still just as great.
I know what that's like. I lost my father last Christmas. We were supposed to watch a televised Neil Young concert, but my dad went into coma few hours prior, and died a week later. Haven't been able to watch it, yet have it saved on my PVR. RIP to both of them

Sorry to hear that. Every man should watch this movie.
“Oh! Johnny, I apologize. I forgot you were there! You may go now.” My favorite line of the movie 😂
let my just state my best quotes for you fine people it might help in this situation =) ......🧔
"I'll be your huckleberry." i say this line all the time and It signifies my willingness to take on a challenge or engage in a fight against false truth and bullies
"My hypocrisy goes only so far." This quote reflects the self-awareness of my own flaws and contradictions helping me in judging others as myself
"It appears my hypocrisy knows no bounds." this is a variation of the previous quote, this line showcases my recognition of my own contradictions and complexities as a drunk and helps me not to judge people too harshly
"I'm your huckleberry. That's just my game." Similar to the first quote, this line demonstrates my willingness to face adversaries and engage
in confrontations with the unknown
"All I want is revenge." This quote encapsulates my driven and vengeful nature often attributed to my name but only against people that don't accept my views and don't respect my free speech
Haha 🤣 I use that for people I don't care for
A video of Tombstone's best scenes should be no less than two hours and ten minutes long.
Val Kilmer being cheated out of an Oscar is just further evidence that the Oscars are all about politics, and have nothing to do with quality.
Michael Davis reason why so many GOOD actors have slowly walked away
Cheated out of a nomination, but the actual winner that year should have been Ralph Fiennes for Schindler's List.
That's why gladiator dominated the Oscars in like 2003 or 2002 with like best everything and even Ridley Scott says it wasn't his best
He wasn't that good in this. He's had much better roles.
@@mzmadmike it was better than batman forever
“ ... You’re so drunk 🥴, you’re probably seeing double... “
“ I have 2 guns ... one for each of ya ... “ 🥴
The most perfect comeback I've ever heard. EVER.
he flipped the guns alternately when he said it.. one forward and the other backwards.
😉🤣🤣🤣🤣👊👊🐒🌹🐥🤙✌✌
“Now get the hell outa Dodge”
Believe me, I CAN say that. Im from and live in the greatest little cowtown in the west, where I call home. And yes we do still ride horses down dirt roads.
And also cars. On asphalt, concrete, and bricks (it’s the worst). We aren’t that uncivilized
You're so drunk, you can't hit nothin'....in fact you're probably seein' double....
If you're going to quote something get it right....
The moment you realize, Ringo is scarred shitless “I was just fooling about” lol why don’t we talk like this anymore hahahahaha
We will.
brenex415 415 you can talk however you like. We can even play for blood lunger. I always talk in a way that is out of place with the times. My go to introduction is greetings. "Greetings" sounds some where between a country western and an alien invasion.
(Doc smiling) "I wasn't!"
An experienced gun slinger who is dead already from terminal TB and he doesn't like you.....
Don't blame him.
I was just fooling about......translation......I was just bull shitting
Val Kilmer is such a good actor. His acting is flawless. He lures you right in.
Val Kilmer played the definitive version of Doc Holliday. His portrayal of this fearless man
slowly dying of consumption was perfect, yet he was ignored for an Academy award.
Superb acting in a superb film.
I like his role in that, but I have to believe that Dennis Quaid as Doc Holiday in "Wyatt Earp" was much more historically accurate in regards to authenticity of the character, the story, and of the times. I truly enjoy both movies but personally I like Quaid's version better.
Michael Dover Quaid was magnificent. However the sheer length of "WE", made it a daunting watch for many people.
That's definitely true. Time must be invested to watch "Wyatt Earp" in one sitting. I would still rank it up there as a great movie.
Actually, he was not ignored. He was not a member of the Academy and you have to be to get nominated for an Oscar. Val did not want to join the academy because he thought it was too political. He may have joined since the movie. My friend worked with him on the movie 'Heat' and Val told him this.
so right
“Matter of fact, you’re probably seeing double” “I have two guns, one for each of you” damn that’s so badass
Love that too!
@Steve L All while holding his shot glass
Seriously and the way he says it is absolutely perfect and I’m not a movie buff but hats off
@Steve L and @neckbreakerlifetaker HA! Finally someone else who noticed! Additionally, earlier in the stand off with Ringo... Michael Biehn and Val Kilmer's flamboyant gun-spinning and reciprocating shot tin spinning. If you're a fan of the movie, you've likely tried to imitate the motions and realize how damn difficult it is.
@@rawnarrative I am a movie buff, and I, too, say 'hats off' to Kilmer's performance as Doc. He's indeed a daisy.
Val Kilmer's best role, hell one of the best roles anyone ever played in a movie!
Nobody seems to realize Doc shooting at Ike in that building is about as "Tactical" as you could have been in that day.
That’s cool
@@rexythet-rex3513 Tactical
I read this comment by someone who realized that while everyone else was going "Wow" at' Ringo's show, Doc Holiday was carefully analyzing the speed and technique of Ringo's draw and after that knew exactly how fast Ringo was.
Thats the point of the whole scene casual viewers wont notice and just think its a cool little back and forth but in the context of the movie as a whole its really important. He learns all ringos tells like its a poker game.
I always took it as ringo trying to bait him to draw his gun and so a show and he would shoot him saying it was a fair fight, but doc had probably played that game already with someone else.
Yep doc knew right then ringo was a lightweight. Art of war , every battle is won Before it has begun
He also ascertained that Wyatt couldn’t beat Ringo.
"Poor soul...you were just too highstrung." - Doc
When Doc Holiday does his tin cup pistolero, he is my Huckleberry.
If Val Kilmer should have ever received an Oscar nomination, his portrayal of Doc Holiday in this movie should have been it.
with no doubt
sewing1243 No actor ever gave a better performance than VAL KILMER as Doc Holliday.
JOYCE CLEMONS -Dennis Quaid did an okay job in Wyatt Earp, which was released a year after this one. But Val Kilmer stole the show for this film.
How could you make a "best scene" video of Tombstone when the whole damn movie is a best scene?
Fucking right??
True, true. So many of us "hooked" on this movie. The best actors, the best script!!!!
I can’t argue with that best movie ever
Johnathan Zimmiond yesss
🤣🤣👊👊🍎🙏🤙✌🤲🍒🥝🌹🐥😪
As amazing as Val Kilmer was as Doc Holliday, we need to note how superb Michael Biehn was as his foil, Johnny Ringo. Stephen Lang was his usual solid self as the cowardly Ike Clanton.
And Sam Elliot? The voice, moustache, face...just exudes the essence of cowboy.
Looking back there really wasn’t any miscasting in this film from Kurt and Val all the way to chuck hestons cameo. It was perfect
Sam Elliot was great in Roadhouse too
@@cornflowertoile3026 "Gentlemen.....Wade Garrett."
"Exactly right!"
James Cameron was initially thinking of casting Biehn as Col. Miles Quaritch in “Avatar” but thought it might seem like too much of an “Aliens” reunion with Sigourney Weaver in the movie. So he switched to his second choice: Stephen Lang.
@@KaitainCPS Ironically, Lang had auditioned for the role of Hicks in Aliens, which ultimately went to Biehn.
This movie was awesome with an incredible cast! R.I.P. Bill Paxton and Powers Boothe
"I have two guns. One for each of ya."- Doc Holliday.
"My hypocrisy only goes so far."
I think the most amazing part of that line is that he spins each pistol in a different direction when he says it.
"I'm your huckleberry."
I once said that after I got wasted at a wedding and while my folks were driving me home I was seeing double. My coworkers still laugh when I tell that story
Best and funniest line in the whole movie 😂😂
" I have two guns.. one for each of ya" best comeback ever
Chuck Foley i absolutely agree "That is a sign of a real genius"😄😄
...and he is cocking both guns in different directions, another add to sheer genius of Val in that scene
My mother's favorite line from this movie, that and "I'm your hunkle berry"
skylaxx favorite line in the movie and I've never noticed the different directions. Damn! Thanks for that I love it even more now 😂
A local comedian came to town playing off that line on how badass it was. Talking about ordering a double cheeseburger... you can imagine the rest
Yes I totally agree that Val's performance in this movie is spot on and oscar worthy, but can we ignore the fact that every cast on this movie is perfect? Even the bad guys, the cowboys. The script, the scenery. This movie is definitely on the top 5 in legendary movies of all time, if there are any.
“Johnny I’m sorry I forgot you were there. You may go now”…😂
That creepy smile and then “I wasn’t”. Terrifying.
He was a man on borrowed time, a dead man walking, he had nothing to fear, and a man with no fear is the most dangerous kind.
@@Mr.StarsAndStripes1776 that alone in itself is why you strive to be like doc. life isnt something to be feared but instead something to behold and take hold of like a wild bull because you dont know when you'll be thrown off it like a case of bad fleas.
kurt russell has an extraordinary sense of picking great films to work in. he deserves a lot more credit than what is afforded to him.
He is great in the movie too!
If you have not seen "New York 1997" yet, do so. Yes an old movie, but such a good one :) Also recommend the oldest "The thing". Both with Kurt Russels ofc.
@@thorvalhalla7805 You mean "Escape from New York."
In Norway it was called "New York 1997" All of New York was a prison and he had to save the potus. Probably the same movie.
@@thorvalhalla7805 No, no. The original "The Thing" was like 1951 - with James Arness
"Touch that gun I'll burn you down"
That set the tone for the whole movie the time and the place.
"I'm your huckleberry.....Why Johnny Ringo, you look like somebody just walked over your grave."
That's just my game.
"We played for blood....remember?"
Bone chilling
i believe Doc said "I'm your huckle bearer". "I'm your huckleberry" theoretically means I'm the right man for the job. "I'm your huckle bearer" means I am your pallbearer which makes 100x more sense coming from a man who is there to kill you.
If you think back friend it's actually a callback to the first time he says it in the film when Wyatt and his brothers refuse to fight Johnny Ringo. As they walk away he shouts a great line after them: "You wretched slugs! Don't any of you have the guts to play for blood?" to which Doc replies "I'm your huckleberry" completely in line with the original meaning about being the man for the job. Everyone forgets the line in the showdown is referring back to the earlier one (besides it makes sense at the end too. Doc is the replacement in the final duel and Ringo is stood waiting for someone to show up).
All that aside you can see the original script and it is 100% "huckleberry." Not sure how it has becone such a debating point tbh - the film is full of period slang. "Daisy" is another as is the slug line from Ringo - haha "slug" should make a comeback as an insult.
This is one case where the Oscars failed. Val Kilmer was Oscar-worthy in this role & deserved a nomination.
Apollo B. nah he layed it on too thick (as he does with all of his accents)
Entertain Me That's how Doc Holiday's accent was said to be though bro. If anything, he did a good job at actually becoming Doc
Apollo B. His finest role by some distance.
Apollo B. In my opinion. He is Doc Holiday. Absolutely sold me.
Apollo B. He didnt get the nomination because at the time Kilmer had a reputation for being difficult to work with, unpleasant on the set and a bit weird ( at one point he forbade people of certain astrological signs from being around him) .
That "I wasn't" when Ringo says he was just playing was *chef's kiss*. It showed us that he's barely keeping it together in his mind, dude was a killer and he knew it.
"Alright lunger...let's do it". The look on Michael Bien's face when he says that line is hilarious
Val Kilmer should have won the Oscar that year, Hands Down...
+DIOSpeedDemon I agree. He stole the show! Billy Bob is a porker!
+Ken Davenport I thought all of them were superbly cast for this movie, but yes Kilmer was fantastic, but really this was just one of those rare perfect movies, not a dull moment and the inter actions between all the players , just so great !
Too bad he wasn't even nominated for his performance... That would have made it far easier for him to have at least had a shot at winning!
DIOSpeedDemon you damn RIGHT!!!
DIOSpeedDemon i agree sir....hes a badass....u ever seen the saint?
It's a crime that this man didn't win an Oscar or even get nominated for one for this role

One of the greatest westerns of all time!!! Kilmer was incredible.
"I was just fooling about" -Ringo
"I wasn't"- Doc

@Merry Christmas: El Paso, Texas 😀!
Doc in this movie is walking death - to others.
Tuberculosis is definitely a huge part of what made Doc so dangerous. He was a dead man walking, and he knew it. That and the fact that he was brought up as a southern gentleman meant that he would not tolerate certain behavior.
JokersWild45 Doc lived each day as if it was his last. He was already facing the worst in his life with TB,,,so He had nothing to loose. I admire him for that. He made the Best of whatever was left.
@@spiderlegs50 'lose'...LOSE !

Bob Doubter Added bonus that he spins both his pistols in two different directions as he says it.
Val Kilmer was THE star in this movie. Hollywood’s most underrated actor.
Please stop using the word underrated. He starred in a ton of films making money beyond our belief so apparently he wan NOT underrated. Thank you for your cooperation.
@1:26 "touch that gun I'll burn ya down"
my brother and i quoted that line all the time when we were kids. greatest line for her in this movie.
Val Kilmer actually did something amazing in this movie, very underrated actor.
Please do not use the word underrated ever again on RUclips. He scored a boat-load of films after Tombstone’s release to act in so you’re way off-base. Thank you for your cooperation.
Kevin Jarre was the screenwriter who created this story and wrote so many of these wonderful lines for Tombstone. Several lines were added by Russell and Kilmer during shooting but the story and dialogue are still primarily Jarre's. Jarre passed in 2011, aged 56, of a heart attack. Please tip your hat to him!
RIP Kevin, 56 years young... Such a shame. Thanks for sharing this J Sharp.
True dat but Jarre had to approve all changes and word is he didn't disapprove of any suggestions.
I was not aware of that. A true loss. May he rest in peace...⚘
Was he any relation to Maurice Jarre - film composer for such great flicks as Lawrence of Arabia & Dr Zhivago???
@@mohammedcohen Can't believe it's taken 2 years for someone to answer your query but yes, they are related: Maurice Jarre married his mom and the stepson took his stepdad's last name.
you're forgetting the best scene that goes a little something like this, ahem.
"The cowboys are finished you understand me? I see a red sash I kill the man wearing it, so run you curr! RUN! tell all the other currs the law is coming!
YOU TELL 'EM I'M COMING! AND HELL'S COMING WITH ME YOU HEAR! *HELL'S COMING WITH ME!* "

You got right SawBlood45. The best scene/dialogue in any Western movie that was ever made. I absolutely love it!
Ringo: "And you must be Doc. Holliday. You retired too?" Holiday: "No. Not me. I'm at my prime...."

Love ‘em all! But ending it with “Well... bye!” Priceless!
"Maybe poker's just not your game, Ike... I know, let's have a spelling contest!"
Possibly the greatest line in cinema history. Doc not only beats Ike, and takes his money. But he insults his intelligence all at the same time. Brilliant!
still makes me smile
Hilarious
"I beg to differ. Play for blood, remember?" "I was just fooling about"... "I wasn't". This movie hypes the shit out of me.

Can we talk about Micheal Biehns performance too, everyone always praises Val Kilmer, and yes- this is by far his best acting in any movie, but i love love love Johnny Ringo too, everytime i think about that character I wish there was a back story to him, and Biehn played him with such intensity, he was fantastic in the role. They were perfect arch-enemies.
I love Michael Biehn, but everybody praises Doc not because it’s Val’s best role (which is debatable, he’s had many) but a role like Johnny Ringo’s really isn’t a hard role to play. A role like Doc Holliday and playing it WELL is a much harder feat to accomplish. Val could have easily played a role like Johnny Ringo in his sleep.
Fair point. Technically speaking I guess Val’s role was harder. I guess I just like Biehn but I should look at his role more objectively
Oh yeah! Michael was awesome. He went toe to toe with this awesome character actor and really held his own. "I WANT THEM TO SPIT BLOOD!"
Agreed. I think they all read up on their real life characters and bought them back from the grave.
Every single actor was awesome in this film imho. But yeah, Val’s performance was the best in my book. Definitely deserved an Oscar nod, what a rip off.
Great film, very memorable!
Since people keep mentioning the Oscars, the nominees for Best Supporting Actor in the 66th Academy Awards were: Tommy Lee Jones (The Fugitive), Leonardo DiCaprio (What's Eating Gilbert Grape), Ralph Fiennes (Schindler's List), John Malkovich (In the Line of Fire), & Pete Postlethwaite (In the Name of the Father).
Phenomenal list, eh? Tombstone is my favourite movie out of those and I love Kilmer's performance but Di Caprio's and Postlethwaite's were even better performances imo.
@@cpf6125 Well, which of the five would you remove to nominate Val?
@@cpf6125 in my opinion Val's performance was way ahead of Tommy Lee Jones and Leonardo. Both great actors of course but those films weren't the best examples of their work.

Terri U This and Outlaw Jose Wales will always be my favorite movies.
For sure. Great movie and very quotable! Love it!
I'm your huckleberry!
Indeed
I’ve watched this movie so many times, I know about 90% of the dialogue! My favorite western!
“I got two guns. One for each of ya.”
“Poor soul, you were just too high strung.” VK really looked like death in this. Between that, the gorgeous accent, amazing physicality, stole the movie for me.
The best movie ever! I have watched over and over. Val Kilmer stole the show. Superb acting from all. I'm your Huckleberry... Say when. Down by the creek probably walking on water. Just awesome. No one could have played Doc. Holiday any better
Renae Jones i catch alot of crap for putting soo many Val scenes in this video.....but honestly! They ARE the best scenes!
BadfishKoo Wont catch flack from me... Lol I agree. His scenes make that movie.
Renae Jones Well you'll get no arguments from me.
Renae Jones I know right? Definitly in my top five favorites
BadfishKoo Agreed. Kurt Russell is my favorite actor, but Val steals the show.
Kurt Russell is said to be the real director of Tombstone and the movie would have never been as great as it was with out him
I could agree with that
Best scenes. Every scene he was in was the best scene.
I loved all of Doc's lines!!! Great movie!!!
Kurt Russell made me cry also!!! A nice bunch of good looking gentleman!!! Im very impressed!!!
I will NEVER get tired of this movie
Your a daisy if ya do lol
I am so.
Renae Jones Yeah, I heard you the first time
Me either
Renae Jones me neither
I introduced my late dad to this movie, he must have watched it a hundred times, he could recite every scene almost. How Val Kilmer got overlooked for an academy award I will never know.
One of my all time favourite films
This, Unforgiven, and the remake of True Grit. Best westerns ever.
I prefer the original True Grit with John Wayne.
My dad too and the original Lonesome Dove.
let my just state my best quotes for you fine people it might help in this situation =) ......🧔

From Stagecoach in 1939 to today, Westerns are still the best movies.
What a peach of a movie. This is easily in the top 4 of all westerns. A major score by Val Kilmer
Kurt Russell had some pretty bad ass lines in this movie too.
“Your friends might get me in a rush but not before I make your head into a canoe.”
"You tell them I'm coming! And Hell's coming with me!"
He's bluffing. NO HE'S NOT!
Facts. "You gonna do something or just stand there and bleed?" after slapping the soul out that man's body 💀 probably my favorite scene to re-watch over and over.
Go ahead, skin that smoke wagon'.
And slapping Billy Bob Thornton like a pimp slaps his hoes.......
"Tombstone best scenes"
Basically every scene Val Kilmer is in it then,,,
There are great scenes with the other actors too but Val Kilmer's are the best of the best.
Fantastic casting.Val killer,Powers Boothe,Michael Biehn,Kurt Russell.For a film over 25 years old these scenes have massive viewing.
Hey. Kurt also has some great moments
All the scenes are outstanding with outstanding actors.
And my personal favorite Van Kilmer as Doc. Holiday stole the show. Seen this movie at least ten times.bit never gets old.
Thanks so much for the upload. Might watch it again 😆
Val Kilmer should have won the Oscar for this
Most of these actors should have got an Emmy or what ever for this movie. This is one of the best historical “re-enactments” I have ever seen. I have lived in SW Kansas all my life and grew up knowing this history. I live just a little bit from the street name after Wyatt and Boothill Cemetery. This history runs thru me. “Get the hell outta Dodge” is one of the best sayings I know. It means “You don’t belong here, get lost before someone makes you disappear “
