In my opinion, Val Kilmer's greatest role. His portrayal as Doc Holliday was what made this film.
#ShowStealer
Love Val Kilmer in this he did such a great job as well alot of the other actors and actresses
HIs portrayal of Holliday was my favorite performance by any actor until I saw Heath Ledger's Joker. I could watch this movie every day.
#1 Tombstone.
#2 Ghost in the darkness.
These two movies immortalized Val Kilmer for me.
Spartan
what about Top Secret!
Val Kilmer was the man in this movie.
He stole the scenes every time he was onscreen, this movie should've been called "Doc Holiday" instead of "Tombstone".

I will second.. Third... A million times that. Val was the absolute shit in this a movie.
@@primustool44 who asked
@@youssefaskar8229 everyone but you 🤣
“Sir, if I am to be insulted I must first value your opinion.”
One of the greatest lines ever.
Honestly, I try to live my life by this line. It's one of my favorites.
@@DocHolliday1851 Doc...what the hell are you doing in the comment section?
I await the day life gives me the opportunity to steal this one-liner for my own.
"Well he is smart. Now I am insulted"
Favorite. Movie. Of. All. Time.
“Doc was a dentist whom necessity had made a gambler; a gentleman whom disease had made a frontier vagabond; a philosopher whom life had made a caustic wit; a long, lean, ash-blond fellow nearly dead from consumption, at the same time the most skilful gambler and the nerviest, speediest, deadliest man with a six-gun I ever knew.”
Wyatt Earp - San Francisco Examiner - August 2, 1896
Yep, he had to retire from dentistry and took up gambling because of uncontrollable coughing fits. He was a really interesting guy.
@@squirreledhistory906 He had tuberculosis. Would you want him leaning over your face while he drilled out a cavity?
@@barreloffun10 True, plus he retired in 1874, a year before the electric dental drill was introduced, so you were lucky if you got a pneumatic drill while he was working on you, let alone you catching what he had. He did win several awards for his work though.
I love that. Val Kilmer did a great job bringing Doc to life.
The fact you knew that quote endeared you to me for life. Kudos
Wyatt never hunted Doc, Doc just happened to save his life once, and they stayed friends.
Yep. Doc was a gambler, not a bandit. Wyat might have had to temporarily imprison him due to some gambling disputes turned gunfights, but he probably wasn't ever a target for Wyatt while he was a Sherrif.
“Doc’s drunk, in fact, I believe he’s seeing double.”
“I have two guns. One for each of ya.”
This movie had some of the best lines I have ever heard.
That line was so cool!!
Say when
My grandpa is in this movie! He was an extra sitting at the bar taking a shot lol
that’s cool
That’s awesome!
The best scene in the movie was Doc and Ringo shit talking each other in Latin. It was the most intense scene IMO
Music works REALLY well in that scene, building the tension
"Apparently Mr. Ringo is an educated man. Now I really hate him!"
"Thanks for always being there Doc" - Wyatt Earp's final words to Doc Holliday.
Scene always got me balling.
Sadly, they had some kind of falling out and Doc died alone in Glenwood Springs. Wyatt Earp did talk about him after his death to a news reporter.
Still a tear jerker.
The scene where Wyatt has the shoot out in the river with all those guys is a true story. Witnesses said that it was unlike anything they had seen. Dozens of men firing at him and all their bullets missed and he took down all of them. It’s actually what made him THE legend.
“You’re a daisy if you do” and “I’ll be your huckleberry “ are all supposedly true quotes.
The actual term for the period, was Huckle Bearer, not huckleberry. A Huckle is the handle on a casket. A Huckle Bearer is essentially a Pall Bearer at a funeral. When he says, I'll be your Huckle Bearer, hes saying i'll carry your casket at your funeral.
Iloyd Martinez ohhhh. Okay, now that makes a lot more sense! Thanks! Nothing worse than going around giving a supremely confident wrong answer LOL.
@@Rancoroth419 Except the script and screenplay says huckleberry. Nice try tho
I see so many people saying conflicting things in comment sections.
No wonder it's hard to get the true story with all of these old famous gunslingers.
@Iloyd Martinez this is completely incorrect lol, and has been debunked many times. At no point has a casket handle been called a huckle, its always been a handle, there is nothing called a huckle lol. The closest thing is the huckleberry, which is the word that was used in the actual script as well.
If you would spend 3 seconds researching online before spouting off nonsense, you would see that your "fact" was incorrect from the beginning. This rumor is like the whole "In Django Unchained, Leo wiped real blood on the actress' face", which is also completely false--yet every reaction someone in the comments will repeat these falsities.
This movie is so quotable, and Val Kilmer gets all the best lines.
Not all of them, Hell's coming with me and Thanks for always being there Doc...
Also, Wyatt Earp met John Henry "Doc" Holliday while he was after another outlaw. Doc helped and backed Wyatt up and they were friends ever since.
Was about to comment this! Glad other people know the history!
If I remember right, it wasn't just that Doc backed Wyatt up, I think he also saved Wyatt's life, killing a man that had the drop on him.
@@rcslyman8929 Yeah, that's part of "backing him up" haha its a long story to tell in a RUclips comment so I abbreviated
" i appologize, Johnny. I forgot you were there." Is my favourite line in the whole movie. Man, did Val Kilmer steal this movie or what?
And of course, he must immediately top it with, "You may go now."
He definitely stole the movie. Personally, I prefer Dennis Quaids portrayal, as it is more historically accurate, but Kilmer did a terrifically entertaining job on this.
A lot of ppl notice Doc reach for his pistol after he kills Ringo when Wyatt made noise coming up the path, but there is a VERY strong glimpse into how Doc's life was prior to the events in Tombstone. If you watch the scene after the Holiday/Earps meet up when the shooting between Creek Jack and Texas Vermillion and the crawfish breaks the lighthearted "normal day" tone of the scene, there is a quick cut to the group and each member reacts different to the shots. Beehan and Morgan both react with the most startled ducking reaction like a normal civilian likely would. Wyatt has a slight flinch but his immediate response is to turn toward the gunfire . Doc doesn't even do so much as a quick flinch in the shoulders. The fact Kilmer could pull that off deserves recognition.
17:54 When Morgan says he "can't see a damn thing" he literally means that. When dying, you lose your sight because of a lack of blood flow to your head.
😔
Any grown man that has not seen Tombstone has wasted his life
is not a grown man.*
Did you just gate keep being a man to a movie? Dude...you are pathetic.
@@cheezelog3889 boo hoo cry a river would you
@@oscarortizg7292 Sorry I triggered you over a dumb gate keep. Lol
It's more of a requirement than learning cursive... Oh wait they don't teach that anymore
One of my favorite roles of all time - Val Kilmer as Doc. He should have gotten every award imaginable.
I can’t believe you didn’t show the first “I’m your huckleberry” scene.
In vino veritas
@@germanpeart in vodka etiam
Great movie. For some reason it still sounds wierd that Wyatt Earp lived almost to World War 2. The old West and the 20th century seem so far removed, even if they're not.
ZenRhizer.... He was friends with a young John Wayne.
It's been said that an Englishman considers 100 miles to be a long distance, while an American considers 100 years to be a long time
14:54 The house is on fire because there was actually a fire that day. Its in the same paper (Tombstone Epitaph) that covered the shooting.
Val Kilmer got snubbed for Best Supporting Actor Oscar Nomination! Oscars fucked up with this. Val Kilmer was outstanding in this film, arguably his greatest performance ever!
In real life Doc saved Wyatt from getting killed that's how they became friends
Hard to believe Val Kilmer didn't get the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor
Frank Stallone, Sylvester's brother, was the guy Doc stabbed in the beginning. Some great cameos and early roles throughout. One of my top films of all time. Also love the Kevin Costner film called "Wyatt Earp" that came out only six months after this one (Dennis Quade did a great Doc in that one and lost a ton of weight to look sick). The Costner version was written and directed by Lawrence Kasdan, writer of Empire Strikes Back, and was over three hours long. By the way, the reason a building was on fire during the OK Corral shootout was because there apparently was a building on fire during the real shootout (or at least there were several real fires around that time frame, I've heard both things but can't get confirmation) so they replicated it as an odd bit of history and to symbolize the hellishness and chaos going on.
I like both Tombstone and Wyatt Earp. What I loved about Tombstone especially is that all the stuff that happens that seems so far fetched and crazy actually happened, especially the whole sequence with Wyatt killing Curly Bill in the river bit. That was insane.
I liked that they put that part in there that doc holiday, right before he dies, he looks at his feet and says "oh, I'll be Damned" I never knew what that meant till recently. Apparently Doc Holliday always thought that he was going to die in a shootout with his shoes on and when he noticed that he's going to die with his shoes off it makes much more sense if he would say the words "I'll be damned"
Beginning to end, this was so much fun. We shot at the filming locations awhile back, and the quotes were endless. Thanks for this.
Nice af
I must mention that the film was written by the late, great Kevin Jarre, who also wrote Glory.
You guys should react to The Count of Monte Cristo, or when you guys can get together again! It is my favourite movie of all time.
Which version? I'm only asking because it's one of those books that have been made into movies many, many times, like The Three Musketeers, or Robin Hood.
@@quwykxz The 2002 version with Guy pearce and jim caviezel
@@keplerthe3399 Cool; thanks for answering. Also, that's my mom's favorite version, too, and I think it's one of the best ones, as well. 😃👍
@@quwykxz Lol I actually didn't realize how many different film adaptions of the book there were until you mentioned it!
Guy Pearce, Jim Caviezel, AND HENRY CAVIL!*
I also think that this is val Kilmers greatest performance of his career. Everybody was really good in this movie but Kilmer was the standout, some of the greatest lines of all time. He should have won the academy award for best supporting actor.
Doesn't matter how many times I see this. Val Kilmer's performance floors me every time.
They became friends because Doc saved Wyatt from a gang who got the drop on him while he was walking around the town he was sheriff in.
Wyatt really did cross the stream in that gunfight, all who saw it were amazed, his coat was shot full of holes. Also the brother dying on the billiard table and he says "I cant see anything", was because him and wyatt said when the time came to die they would tell each other if they were near if they could see the after life.
How in hell did Val Kilmer not get the oscar that year??
Because that same year “Unforgiven”, “Scent of a Woman”, “A Few Good Men”, “Malcom X”, “Glengarry Glen Ross”, “Chaplin”, & many more amazing movies came out that same year….. A LOT of competition.
Val kilmer had 2 roles he had in movies I love. Doc Holiday of course and Ice Man from Top Guns.
I agree with Calvin on his movie pick at the end. STARGATE! I would love to see that reaction, and hopefully spark a series of them watching SG-1 and beyond.
*raises eyebrow* Indeed
Definitely Stargate!
I'd freak out if they started reacting to Stargate stuff mainly the movie and SG-1!
Just an interesting fact for fans of history. Doc Holiday was a dentist from Griffin, Ga until he got TB then he became a bit of an outlaw/hustler and moved out west for the dryer air which eased his pain from the TB.
6:21
Only Kurt Russel could make the line “Skin that smokewagon and see what happens” genuinely intimidating
As the recent Nostalgia Critic vid on Tombstone said: “he makes a Blazing Saddles line sound like an EASTWOOD LINE.”
You guys should give Open Range a reaction too. It's right up there with this IMO.
Yes! Open Range is fantastic
Yep
Yep
Again, Robert Duval just like Val Kilmer should've won Best Supporting Actor. They lost out to Tommy Lee Jones and Tim Robbins respectively.
And Pale Rider.
Hands down..this was Vals greatest performance ever. He rules as Doc Holiday.
I'll be your huckleberry
You're no daisy
I'm afraid the strain was more than he could bear.
@@ssjwes you're no daisy at all!
One of my all time favorite movies. Val Kilmer's most iconic role. He really makes this movie. This, Gladiator, the first Die Hard, original Star Wars trilogy and Lord of the Rings. If I could watch nothing else the rest of my life I'd be ok with that list.
It's a kind of wake-up call for me as an older guy, when I observe them talking about someone like *Robert Mitchum,* and they don't really know who he is. Unlike some of my contemporaries, I've managed to stay current, as it were. I have a lot of younger friends, as well as friends my own age. Plus, my daughter and I are close and she's 32. So, I don't often miss current references, and the like. And when it happens in reverse like with the iconic *Robert Mitchum* (which makes sense), I'm momentarily surprised, as it catches me off-guard.
I know who Robert Mitchum was. My uncle was a big movie fan and my cousins and I would watch all the films he rented on betamax with him. But as a kid I was more familiar with his son Chris Mitchum as he was younger and more fitting action movie material in the eyes of a kid growing up in the late 70s and early 80s.
One of my absolute favorite movies! LOVE Val Kilmer in the this - and really, all of the main cast was excellent! Heard that Kurt Russell practically directed this movie and "fixed" it. He sure did.
I love this movie so much, I've rewatched it many times. RIP to the great Powers Boothe, such a good villain, that scene with Morgan's funeral procession is chilling! Val Kilmer pretty much steals this movie, I agree this is his best performance. Glad you guys enjoyed it!❤
One of the best movies of all time. Val Kilmer as Doc is a legendary role. You guys should watch the scenes that were cut....they are on youtube. Some of them are really good and fill gaps.
And Kurt Russell was the actual director...credit was given to another dude, but later came out who really directed it
Fun fact: The card player that confronts Doc Holiday at the beginning the movie is Frank Stallone, Sylvester Stallone's brother.
I love this movie! This is one of those movies that no matter how many times you've seen it, even if you own it, if it's showing on tv you stop whatever you're doing and you watch it.
I love tombstone I lost count how many times I seen it so so good.
Seriously guys, you should watch Deadwood. It's a western, yes, but has more in common with a show like Peaky Blinders The ensemble cast is absolutely perfect.
burrichgrrl57 I love Deadwood one of my top five of all time tv shows.
Yeah Deadwood is fucking great. I binge the DVD set once a year.
Calamity Janes actress was the reason I stopped watching it. One of the most annoying characters I've ever seen
Beautiful, flowery dialogue interspersed with the word cocksucker and other profanities.
The gun that Wyatt gets after he is sworn in was a Buntline Special, especially created for him by Ned Buntline.
The final fight between Wyatt and Cowboy happened in the Whetstone mountains, only 10 miles from here.
Brilliant Movie; one of my all time favorites.
One of my favorites of all times.
My all time favorite movie, I never get tired of watching it.
I love love love this movie! This is the best Western, it's so good!
Kurt Russell named one of his kids Wyatt.
Wyatt is his son with Goldie Hawn and he's in Overlord.
Val Kilmer owned this movie. He was amazing as Doc.
This one of my favorites, even though it was not completely accurate. Most of the events was over a period of months. The movie makes it appear that the two Earp brothers were shot within hours; but in reality it was a couple of months apart. But still a very entertaining films.
One of the only serious inaccuracies in this movie is that Doc Holliday and Johnny Ringo maybe met in passing, but he died several years after the OK Corral somewhere else. Still, what an amazing movie. The cast was absolutely stacked.
This is one of my favorites films. Watched it so many times!
The pale horse was val kilmer and the man who "sat" upon him was death which is which is Kurt Russell because Val Kilmer basically carried him like horse throughout the film...and hell followed with them. They brought pure hell upon the cowboys
favorite line..."why Johnny Ringo you look like someone just walked over your grave"
There are entire books just about the real life friendship between Doc Holiday and Wyatt Earp.
Did you you know Michael Beihn and Bill Paxton are in Terminator, Tombstone, and Aliens
michael beihn is also in a movie called abyss. reallly great. hes very underrated.
@Yoda _ Lance Henriksen?
There is some historical fact in the movie, but other parts were strictly Hollywood. Johnny Ringo was not killed by Doc; he was found in July of 1882 alongside a creek in the Arizona mountains near Dragoon. I have visited the site since he was buried there where he was found, and although private land visitors can reach the site as the landowner allows it and even has a gate through his fence. Although who killed him was never really known, Frank Leslie of Tombstone is thought to have been his killer and on his deathbed Billy Claiborne stated that Leslie did it.
A cool fact about Doc Holliday was that he really wasn't that fast or any kind of an exceptional pistoleer. But he was fearless because of his TB he really had no fear of death, which gave him the edge in any fight, because those with fear will often hesitate.
A big part that they leave out of the movie is that the Sheriff Behan was elected to that County Office as a Democrat whereas the Earps were appointed Town Marshals running as Republicans. The Clantons and McClarys were ranchers around Tombstone and were major backers of the local Democratic Party...so Behan was indebted to them as political backers. Also, this is just 15-16 years after the Civil War (counting from the O.K. Corral in 1881).
wait, the lawmen run for an election as part of political parties?!
@@ser132 Not directly, the County Sheriff has a political affiliation but deputies and Town Marshals are appointed. It had more to do with backing from the largely Democrat ranchers or the Republican town business owners (generally). Ringo and Brocius actually served as election officials in 1880 haha
@@KnightOwl1881 ah, okay, thanks. Still seems a little weird that any leo would be elected at all, it just gives that much more potential to conflict of interest.
County Sheriffs in the U.S. are elected officials. They also have tremendous authority.
@@ser132 How so? They are meant to serve the public...why not vote on them?
greatest movie ever. doc holiday is my fav
Did y'all recognize Merle from The Walking Dead? He played Sherman McMasters.
They did. They said it was Michael Rooker.
I always thought Doc represented "The pale horse"
Little known fact: Wyatt Earp and his brothers grew up in Pella Iowa, 70 miles from Belle Plaines Iowa...where the McLaury brothers grew up. So, the two sides of the Arizona shootout grew up an hour apart in little ole Iowa.
I don’t know if you guys have all seen or reacted to Big Trouble Little China.. but that would be fun to watch you guys react too.
You finally did it, ya brilliant bastards! Now you're officially our Huckleberries! 😁😎👍
Movie fact - Ike was played by Stephen lang, A.K.A. Colonel Quaritch. Totally couldn't believe it when I read it
such a classic, ever Doc line is gold. Love it
That scene where Wyatt holds Ike at gunpoint is awesome there's a similar in the film Wyatt Earp where Earp stops an angry mob from lynching a prisoner by basically saying "You can kill me and get the prisoner but before you do I'll kill at least 10 or 12 of you so who wants to go first?" After that the mob turns tail and walks off Wyatt Earp badass in every movie he's in.
To me it all boils down to this exchange between Turkey Creek Jack Johnson and Doc:
"Doc, you oughta be home in bed. What the hell are you doing this for?"
"Wyatt Earp is my friend."
"Hell, I got lotsa friends."
"I don't."
Having Doc Holliday in your team is just like having an IG-88 droid as bodyguard.
I remember that "Where are they now?" moment when watching this after Avatar. "Wait! Ike is Stephan Lang?"
Lang is always playing some shitbird villain. He's really good at it. About the only heroic role I've seen him play was Sully in the Uncharted fan film he did with Nathan Fillion.
This movie has The Greatest Collection of facial hair ever.
Powers Boothe is an awesome actor. If you guys haven't watched Deadwood, you should do so.
This is one of my favorite movies. Far better then the movie Wyatt Earp
Johnny Skinwalker , what made Tombstone superior was Val Kilmer playing Doc Holliday. Dennis Quaid did ok but Val was born for that role
@@lynncantrell5502 Quaid was excellent as Doc. Both he and Kilmer delivered amazing performances.
@@johnnyskinwalker4095 Kirk Douglas was scary as hell as Doc Holliday. The movie itself was very inaccurate but both he, Burt Lancaster and even Deforest Kelley gave some great performances in Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. Hour of the Gun with James Garner as Wyatt was good too.
Ok, so they don't really explain it in the movie (as far as I can remember), but Wyatt's "wife" isn't really his wife. They were living together, and she called herself his wife, but they never actually got married. Today, we'd probably refer to her as a common-law wife.
Not only that but she wasn’t “depressed” she was addicted to laudanum! It’s like today’s painkillers times 1000!
My favorite western. Not historically perfect, but we'll scripted and directed. All-star cast.
Part of that also, is the fact that It's a movie. Their suppose to take some liberties, to have a great and entertaing movie.
Sam Elliot has the best Moustache in hollywood
Stephen Lang also played Pickett in 'The Movie', and Jackson in 'Gods and Generals.'
I'm your Huckleberry! Love Val Kilmer in this.
My Dad got hooked on westerns growing up. He is a huge John Wayne fan and so by proxy so am I, so anytime a western comes out in the theaters we end up going. A lot of the newer ones didn't make it into my favorite westerns list, but this one sure did. Val Kilmer is amazing and Kurt Russel isn't too far behind. My mother even likes it because she loves Sam Elliot.
14:15 That's the Buntline Special. That revolver was given to him for his service as a peace officer in Dodge City. Interesting thing you might notice is that he carries his revolver in his coat pocket instead of a holster. There's a story behind that. Apparently, there was one time where Wyatt was sitting in a saloon with his feet propped up on a table and he was leaning back in his chair. Well, I guess he ended up leaning back too far back and his gun slid out of the holster, hit the ground, and the gun went off inside the saloon. Nobody got hurt, but Wyatt was really embarrassed by this and from that point on he carried his pistol in his coat pocket.
Fun fact, the Buntline is straight up not real. Make up by a novelist.
In reality, Wyatt used a Scofield during the OK Corral shootout as it was a recent gift from the mayor.
@@cytorakdemon Idk where you're getting that. The Colt revolver buntline special is absolutely real.
@@MaxCovington543 Not in the 1880's. The writer for Wyatt's biography made-up a story of a dime novelist commissioning Colt to make 5 twelve inch barrel single action army revolvers to be presented as gifts to various decorated lawmen.
We know this is fake because Colt has no record of ever receiving such a commission. The Buntline didn't physically exist until the 1950's when Westerns started picking up popularity.
Doc saved Wyatt'S life when he was Marshall in Dodge City.
Actually there was a joke about getting shot by Doc, "hes a quick as a rattlesnake, but unless you're three feet in front of him , or the size of a barn, you're probably safe" the joke is that he was really fast , but he was just an awful shot.
One of the most quote-able films, ever.
Involved in some of the most incredible firefights of that era and he never got so much as grazed by a bullet. Really defied the odds.
This is one of my father's favourite movies. He is a fan of western cowboys films and keeps a lot of them in a playlist. This is one of his repeatedly watched ones. I love them too.
My dad had never seen this movie until I got him to watch it before he came out west to visit me so he would have more context when I took him to Tombstone, AZ and now it is one of his favorites.
Best Western Movie 🎥 EVER Made!! And i Still Say Val Kilmer Should have Won an OSCAR 🏆 For This Roll!!
And now you need to see Silverado.
Kurt Russell
Val Kilmer
Bill Paxton
Michael Rooker (Yondu - Guardians of the Galaxy)
Thomas Haden Church (Sandman - Spiderman 3)
So many great actors in this movie
Thank y'all for doing this movie. I loved this movie the moment I saw it.
The movie made it seem like everything happened in a few months but in reality it was longer. The OK Corral gunfight was in Oct/1881. Virgil was shot in Dec/1881 and Morgan wasn’t killed until Mar/1882. Doc died in Nov/1887 but Wyatt didn’t learn of it for a few months later.
