Thats a good price and since I have not bought many movies lately, I need more.

BTW, still going on at least at WMs in my area, if you see any DvD in the bins and on the stands with that black friday promo stickers still on them, they still have to sell them at those prices. The lemon yellow stickers mean that are $5 DvDs. I just picked up the Sean Connery James Bond DvDs vols 1 &2, as well as the newest Daniel Craig Bond--tot $15. Also, just today, if there are any Sea Hunt fans out there-they have a DvD in the $5 bin which has around 10 episodes on it.
 
First off, I love The Wild Bunch.
Saw it in a Chicago Loop theater in the morning; watched it from the middle and then all the way through.

But, and you knew there'd be a but......

Recently a lot of fellas lamented the glorification of murderous outlaws such as Bonnie and Clyde. While The Wild Bunch is fiction, doesn't it also present a rather "nice" picture of "honorable" outlaws? Because of films like The Wild Bunch,
I can't get my shorts in a bunch over the Bonnie and Clyde type movies where the criminals do in some LEOs and innocent bystanders.

As mature adults, and I think we are, we can distinguish between fictional crimesters and the real thing. I think Quentin Tarantino said it best when he commented that gangsters are interesting people that fascinate a lot of us, and then he added, "but you wouldn't want them as neighbors."
