The first reason is because it's based on the classic tale as written and directed by Akira Kurosawa,
"Shichinin No Samurai," also known as.....
"Shichinin No Samurai," also known as.....
"The Seven Samurai!"
"These are the guys, the Seven Samurai," aka.....
"The Magnificent Seven," and even though they have flaws, this is truly a magnificent group of guys on more than one level! This is Hollywood at it's finest!
And, so, no more screwing around, here they are.....
the other seven reasons!
Yul (The King And I, The Ten Commandments, Westworld) Brynner as
Chris Larabee Adams!
Steve (The Blob, Wanted: Dead Or Alive, The Great Escape) McQueen as
Vin Tanner!!
Charles (House Of Wax, Man With A Camera, Death Wish) Bronson) as
Bernardo O'Reilly!!!
Robert (Teenage Cave Man, Man From U.N.C.L.E., Starship Invasions) Vaughn as
Lee!!!!
James (The Twilight Zone, Our Man Flint, Dead Heat On A Merry-Go-Round) as
Britt!!!!!
I just did a search, and I can't really believe it, but Netflix doesn't have even one film to offer that has James Coburn in it! That is truly appalling!!
A new version of "The Magnificent Seven" came out three days ago, and I just found out about it three minutes ago since I don't keep up with current affairs, but I just watched the trailer a few minutes ago on the IMDB, and I'm sure a whole lot of people are going to go apeshit for it, but all I can say is Good Luck! A group of talent like this only happens once in a lifetime!
Brad (Asphalt Jungle, Between Heaven And Hell, 13 Fighting Men) Dexter as
HARRY LUCK!
Last but by far not least, is the cool German actor Horst (La Noia, The Catamount Killing, Fuga Dal Paradiso) Buchholz as
Chico!!!!!!!
