Val Kilmer was robbed. Oscar performance!
Yeah, he nailed it for sure.
Hollywood hates to give awards to a Western.
Val Kilmer and Michael Biehn both deserved Oscar nominations, if not wins, for their incredible performances in this film. The Academy being what it is, neither was recognized for their stellar work.
For sure.
Absolutely.
I know EVERYONE loves the "I'm your huckleberry" line, but I love the part where he says "that's JUST my game" even more. It heightens how down he was to settle anything at any given time
@Lady Warmachine I like it too, straight calling Ringo out
He knew he was dying and would rather have died in a gunfight than coughing his lungs out. Especially for a friend!
Agreed
"Say when!"
Facts
No one will ever beat this portrayal of Doc Holliday. An educated man, cool and calm under pressure and always down to ride for his friends. Val Kilmer knocked it out of the park and will forever own this role.
I 💯 Agree!
The greatest performance and his pinnacle.
SAY WHEN
Couldn’t agree more!!!
Patrick Swayze
That "say when" is absolutely legendary. I rewatch this scene just for that one line most of all.
The way he said it so swiftly probably had Ringo scared! Like, oh crap, this guy's down
I use it at work all the time
Say when is the best part but people always remember I'm ya huckleberry. Doc was rdy..two times
@carloroca1531 curly bill had to back him out cause he knew doc holliday is fast.
I’m an elementary PE coach and I use this line all the time whenever my students feel froggy about challenging me in games
🤣🤣😂🤠
Val Kilmer is outstanding in this, but Michael Biehn also deserves credit for his performance as Ringo. Hell, the whole cast is top-tier.
Biehn deserves a lot more credit than anyone is giving him. he played Ringo very well. so well that's Kilmer stepped his game up and should have snagged a grammy. NO ONE WILL EVER TOP Kilmer's roe as DOC
@@keithengland6618the movie as a whole is good not my favorite. But Ringo and Doc Holliday are what makes this movie great. Kilmer and Bien are the reason for that. Without them it would just be a regular good Western movie. Those two performances catapult the film into the legend status it has. At least in my opinion anyway
@@andrewesau51 Im with you on this.
@@keithengland6618 Sorry to correct, but you mean an Oscar or Golden Globe, since he didn't sing the part.
Totally agree
The "proceed Sir" as he casually goes back to his shave is a great line, and again drives home that Doc is a professional at his craft - neither shaken up, nor bothered by Ringo. Cold, calculating, ready to rock the second it was needed, and then he could switch it off just like that. Brilliant, it said so much with 2 words.
A Southern gentleman😀
Doc was a devoted friend. Always popping up for the Earps.
Well said🍻
right on!
I was gonna say the same thing but 358 people already liked your comment
I love how when the rest of the cowboys came outside and saw what was going on, they immediately jump to save Johnny because everyone knew damn well what Doc was about to do.
Doc know he was the only one who can defeat Johnny
Thats cuz their the same person in a manner of speaking
1:24-1:29
Him approaching with his revolver in his left hand already out behind his back, but miming as if he’s about to cross draw his second one always been so cool to me 😂
Nah Doc was an opportunist but also a warrior. He would cheat to save his friends, but not in a duel
Look closely, Curly Bill and company come out from that alley. The gun behind his back was for them
He wanted to draw down
This is my favorite part of this scene, the acting and dialogue is amazing but the fact he put on gun behind his back and his hand on the other. He knew the rest of his gang was going to come out and was ready to take them all on then and there.
There has never been a cast like this, before or after.
Timeless classic.
Open Range with Kevin Costner
@@gallmanconstruction728 not even close
@@Rocketpower713 We all have an opinion.
@@gallmanconstruction728 doesn't mean your opinion is right.
@@Rocketpower713 No, but according to you I am wrong because we disagree. So apparently only your opinion is right because it’s your opinion.
We talk about Val Kilmer's superb acting in this movie but Powers Booth portrayal of curly bill was masterfully done as well.
Honestly everyone was so good in this movie. Val just tends to steal the attention because he was so superb
@@Tibbyvc-rb7od so true. The whole ensemble were terrific. But Val shone brighter. He was lucky to have such a perfect counter to act against in Biehn as well.
Yea dude I wanna see the new Top Gun even
Was it? Powers booth had a tendency to overact, and i think he does so in spades in this film.
@@basquat76 I think that was exactly the point, curly bill wasn't a great gunslinger in real life, just a charismatic court jester.
Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday HAS to be one of the best characters ever written and acted on screen. Absolutely Insane how Val completely transformed and became Doc, literally every line of dialogue is quotable, mostly due to Val’s impeccable delivery. No one could have done it better.
Yes! 💯 I agree with you.
I do believe (and deCLAH!) that this film was meant to be pure B-movie glurge. Val Kilmer turned it around, and the others rallied to realize the ascent.
English isn't my first language. What does huckleberry mean ?
@@jackobi14 Normally it's a plant/berry, but in this context, he means "I'm your man for the job."
@@wallywibbly250 Thanks !
I love how quickly Doc says “Say when!” After Ringo says “I’ll put ya out of your misery!”. Doc was genuinely always ready to put it all on the line, love that man
It's very hard nowadays to watch a movie and say: Wow.Everyone in this movie was amazing. Every actor did an amazing job. You can for this one. Tombstone still kicks ass.
another one on ultra level was, The Big Short.
@@RKZX2 everyone talks in such cool dialects on youtube. I wish we all spoke this way in real life
The Batman made feal this way also recent
I think it was awesome the fact Kurt Russel and Michael Rooker end up in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 together
Are you seen the movie avegers ?😂
Val Kilmer nailed Doc Holiday and Kurt Russell nailed Wyatt Earp. Masterful performances!
Actually I find Kurt Russels Wyat Erp a bit stale I wonder what would have happened if Kevin Kostner had not let his ego get the better of him and stayed.
None of us know if they nailed the real Wyatt Earp or John Henry Holliday but they certainly nailed the romanticized public perception of them.
@@DaDunge I believe Kurt Russell was also the director, so he was pulling double duty.
@@DaDunge I preferred Kurt Russell's take on Earp to Kevin Costner's. Just as I preferred "Tombstone" to "Wyatt Earp". It comes down to personal preference. Objectively speaking each interpretation was an artistic perception and representation of history. Which is more true to life is impossible to know. As a work of art I thought Tombstone was better. However I am no more qualified than the next man to be categorical about it. I leave that to the "experts" and the "critics".
Kurt was more boring than kevin Costner
“Say when” and “you’re no daisy” iconic! Val Kilmer nailed it!
And I'm your huckleberry. These 3 will be quoted till the end of time.
@@svenjansen2134 Hucklebearer.
@@Lentomannen3stawpit
When he sadly dies, pretty sure Top Gun and this movie will be his lasting legacy
You ain't no daisy a'tall!
This is absolutely one of the greatest movies ever made!!! Back when movies actually required good acting. And Val was at the very top of his game.
The writing was so good. Unlike the scripts today that don't create characters through words
I love the call back to this scene at the end of the film when Doc finally faces off with Ringo. "We started a game we never got to finish." "Play for blood remember?"
"I was jus' foolin' around."
@@ImpendingJoker I wasn't
say when
@@ImpendingJoker Yeah, Ringo was a lot less willing to throw down against Doc then. I always assumed it's because in the earlier scene shown here, Ringo was drunk.Sober, he knew he might be in over his head.
@@bwrpwr the guy who's not afraid is the most dangerous. Doc was never afraid and that's what terrified Ringo.
Kilmer's "Doc" was the most accurate portrayal ever in any movie - Same age, height, build, colouring, and accent. An unforgettable performance.
No possible what to know what Doc actually sounded like
@@christipton7588 he used a Georgian accent from that time period, which is what Doc would’ve had. Apparently it mostly died out due to the civil war and evolved after that. Val Kilmer studied the accent for this
I disappointingly read up that doc was no where near the dead eye gunslinger he’s portrayed as. I should’ve googled that day. Ignorance was bliss.
@@pavlara Doc Holliday was still a dangerous man, a deadly shot as well. However, he was also physically weak, most likely from his TB, and his gun was the only line of defense.
@@pavlara well they said he killed 2 men was in prison 4 times for other shootings and avoided hanging twice he had to be some sort of gunslinger. Remember there are a bunch of shootings where no one actually dies
Curly Bill at 1:47 "Don't mind him. He's just drunk, that's all." Great line.
He's mimicking what Wyatt said to him when they first met and Doc was drunk and being antagonistic towards Ringo.
Sounded like dutch from red dead redemption
@@richardrubio9152thought the same thing. Get the feeling Dutch’s character is, in small part, inspired by Curly Bill.
"I'm your huckleberry." What a great line!
Classic.
Best line ever
Rumor has it, he says “huckle bearer”.
@@ericbehrens3791 Val Kilmer himself has said he said huckleberry, he even wrote a book titled Im your huckleberry
What does it mean?
The detail in this film is insane, after Ringo said “WELL YOUVE GOT TROUBLE” you can see doc in the background grab his gun, getting ready to defend his friends, because it was later revealed that Wyatt wasn’t caring a gun.
To be that smooth
Ringo drops his whiskey bottle to get their attention not realizing that he also got Doc's attention. As Doc steps off that porch you see the ladies up in the balcony giggling. The moment they see that pistol behind Doc's back they scurry off to safety. There are some serious characters in this film. Doc Holiday should have his own tv series.
That's a nice detail I've never noticed
Notice how his weapon harness is positioned and how he stands with his right arm tucked high like he is preparing to draw from his left but his right arm is also concealing his now empty holster. We see how Doc gives himself the edge and doesn't show is hand.
Yes! I saw that too . Haven't' watched this part of movie in a long time. Rock on!
I know we all love the ‘huckleberry’ line (and of course, Kilmer killed it as Holliday) but I also liked Biehn as Ringo, especially the way he says ‘I want your blood…I want your souls…and I want ‘em both right now.’ Such a brilliant film.
I always felt that was overkill.
And then he Died.
I agree. Great lines and great acting. Michael Biehn is underrated.
meh, biehn's acting in this scene always bothered me. he's acting here, there's no real venom and hate in his words.
He was just foolin'
One has to remember the real Doc knew each day was borrowed towards the end , yet maintained a stoic reverence towards justice . This is truly one of Val Kilmer's finest performance .
Oh I'm sorry Johnny, i forgot you were there. You may leave now 😂
Too many good lines in this movie.
I can't remember the exchange, but when Kurt Russell asks Billy Bob is he "gonna pull that smoke wagon or just stand there and bleed?" 😂
And all of them Kilmer's. Russell, Elliot and Paxton did fine with what they had and Delaney/Zane were kind of window dressing roles. But this movie was about Doc Holiday taking one last ride at dawn with his boys before succumbing to his afflictions.
Val Kilmer being snubbed for an Oscar nomination is one of the biggest miscarriages of justice in movie history.
That’s a trip ain’t it! Hell will smith still received one even after he slapping someone at the Oscar’s. 🤦♂️
agreed
he got to play batman in batman forever
Who was nominated?
@@ricogomez4020 nobody actually even though several performances were very good. Michael Biehn, Michael Rooker, Sam Elliott, and Powers Boothe were all outstanding.
I like how Doc was just at the barber enjoying his day this whole time until something better came along
I like how that was the only scene in the movie Doc looked healthy in. It was a total reversal of he night Doc met Ringo.
@@vCLOWNSHOESv yeah. He did have his days and really he was a very capable man even if ill
@@c.galindo9639 He was very capable but it was cool to show him in a healthy state.
Pro seed....
@@kleetus92 lol
That “Say when” man called his bluff 😂
So many comments about how great this movie and its cast were. And its the whole movie too. The acting. The costumes. The hats. The way they wore their pistols as if they were jewelry. So many comments about how deserving of recognition it was. I agree wholeheartedly. It is one of my all-time favorite movies. Why can't the Academy make up a special award for classic Academy Sins of Omission, and give an Oscar to every deserving member of the Tombstone production team.
In this scene, Curly Bill already knows that Ringo probably can't take Doc in a gunfight when he's sober, and he definitely can't take Doc when he's drunk, so he jumps in at the last moment to save his ace. Curly Bill is the brains of the Cowboys and their leader and he knows it doesn't make any sense to lose Ringo like this.
Well thank you, Captain Obvious.
You know this is a movie, right?
Don't forget to add that all the actors in the film had to behave like they did in the old west, because this was actually filmed sometime after the 1950's.
@@hpblack1953 Jeez, guys, I like the way the scene was set up, and the implicit subtext. I was just kind of appreciating it out loud (so to speak, since I typed it) in an idle stream-of consciousness way. Made you unhappy, it seems. Tough crowd......
@@biff9999 I'm an easy crowd and i love contemplating movie scenes in similar way, thanks for being able to suspend disbelief and set free your imagination and reasoning, nice comment bud
When Doc says "SAY WHEN!" you can tell he really wants the fight. Throughout the film Doc played by Val Kilmer can project himself in such a way that strikes fear and gives him a psychological edge.
Plus you can feel his sickness. Pale in the face, sweaty, red eyed.
He also knew he had the jump on Ringo. Ringo was drunk and Doc already has his gun in his hand.
Their prowess was so similar, but while Ringo was unregulated anger, Doc's anger was channeled and more precise.
The Academy should honor Val with a lifetime achievement award before he passes. Tombstone is the greatest western of all time and largely because of the Oscar quality performance of Kilmers portrayal of Doc Holiday!
I would say there are two greatest, this and Unforgiven, but they are two totally different types of movies so I would be perfectly fine accepting that either are the greatest. I'm old so I really like The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence also.
Wholeheartedly agree with that!
@@JaxNole61 You forgot The Magnificent Seven. The original of course.
@rosegonella3098 yeah, that's another great one!
My favorite lines in this whole movie have always been:
"Alright Lunger. Lets do it."
"Say when."
Val Kilmer was absolutely magnificent in this movie. how he didnt win the Oscar well we all asked that.
Best performance of his career and the best Doc Holiday, hands down.
Hollywood's mafia, I say.
@@jonothandoeser only Doc Holiday that counts!!!!
To the Academy, money is the ultimate expression of talent. It makes sense. The Academy is made up of people whose paychecks depend on whether a movie makes a profit. Talent and art have nothing to do with it. Val Kilmer was an excellent actor but his track record for profitable movies was not impressive. And that is why he did not win the Oscar. Hell, I don't even know if he was nominated.
@@johntechwriter excellent summation ... "talent & art have nothing to do with it" ... VK was well beyond brilliant !!!
I watched this scene a million times. Val Kilmer had natural swag. The way he glides when he walks. Easy, no fuss, confident.. He played this role so eloquently..
My heart aches for him now. Life is so unfair..
To all of us
Life is cruel, why should the afterlife be any different? Capt. Davey Jones PoTC
There will never be another Ringo like Michael Biehn. He crushed it. “I want your blood.”
Every actor in this movie absolutely nailed
the part they played especially Val kilmer as doc Holliday. Best cast in a western movie ever!!
Val Kilmer completely nailing a role. Best performance of his career.
It's probably his best role, but my favorite is Madmartigan in Willow.
@@billbill3915Another good one. And a new Willow sequel is coming out too. Damn throat cancer!!!!!!
I agree. When I watch other versions of this movie, it's just ruined for me, because his Doc Holliday is the best .
It's not a very big movie, but his role in the Prison Movie "Felon" was pretty damn good as well.
An all time great performance. Val Kilmer will always be remembered for that role
It's not just Kilmer's reading of his lines. It is the character's southern educated charm that Kilmer worked on and developed for the movie that was so attractive.
"Proceed, sir" - underrated line
One of the best westerns ever!
One of the best movies ever!
I'm biased, but I disagree. It is THE best.
I don't think I got it in the top 10.

@@bauerj3398 '53 Shane. '70 Wild Bunch.
Michael Biehn is awesome in this scene., as he was when he met Doc. The chemistry between him and Val Kilmer is off the charts in this movie.
i love the fact johnny ringo speaks latin too, very unexpected. i wonder if he did so irl.
@@fourshore502 both Doc and Johhny Ringo were educated men. Latin was popular at the time in Catholic Colleges. Ringo was a catholic college graduate in philosophy and logic.
adore them both
Val Kilmer is the only reason to watch this movie. His performance runs circles around everyone else.
He is the best part of the movie but much of the rest of the cast is excellent too. Dont sell them short.
There were some other excellent performances, I agree Kilmer stole the show but the film was very good overall.
No. The entire cast was spot-on; there wasn't a bad line reading in the entire movie. Kilmer was awesome, yes. But so was everyone else. And I say that as someone who will fight to the death to defend the statement that Kilmer was the best Batman. He was the best part of this movie, but he didn't overshadow the rest of the cast.
There was some cheesy acting in this movie, particularly the whole "noooo" Wyatt walking on water water scene but its forgiven because the best bits are really good.
I’m your huckleberry, say when, that’s just my game, proceed sir. This scene is an encyclopedia of great one liners.
I love when he's backing up wyatt in the street when he arrests curly bill. The dude says he's probably seeing double to which doc says "I've got two guns. One for each of ya" he then spins both pistols, one forward one backward simultaneously. Fucking awesome
He also held the cup he was drinking out of in his right hand...
" Whyyy ringoooo...you look like somebody just walked over yoooooo graaaaave "
"Allright doc...(Ringo Crazy eyes come out)..let's do it."
Poof dead ringo
And watch that scene again even closer, you'll notice Doc has one gun pointed at his head and the other at his heart
@@MoejiiOsmanTV ALRIGHT LUNGER... LET'S DO IT
I liked the "Maybe poker's just not your game. I know! Let's have a spelling contest!" Line😂
I'm your huckleberry!!! One of the greatest lines.. It made Val a household name.. He definitely should have got a Oscar for this role.. Hands down... ✌️
"I'm your huckleberry." is one of the greatest lines in film history. No one could have delivered it like Val Kilmer.
Val should have won an academy award for his performance...the best acting hands down as Doc Holliday!
Obviously Val's work here was amazing, but I'd like to call attention to how Michael Biehn has an incredible knack for acting in a way that contours perfectly to his fellow cast member . It's hard to describe what I mean, but he doesn't just shoehorn himself into the scenes. Every scene he does with Val stands out even more because of how he reacts to Doc.
His best line from the rock… BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC SIR!!!!
Yep, the saloon scene and this one shows that the two actors had a rare chemistry that made such an exciting rivalry. What I like is how Doc understands Ringo. Almost as if they were cut from the same cloth to a degree.
They asked him how it was working with Val and Michael said: I never met Val, I just got to see Doc Holliday. I guess he went full method.
Yep! In 4 of my all time favorite movies... Aliens, Terminator, The Abyss, Tombstone and killed his part in everyone!
Edited to include that he played the perfect Johnny Ringo and was an under used actor imo
@@JaxNole61Navy Seals and The Rock. And Lords of Discipline.
I like how even the bad guys were like "no you don't want to fuck with him especially when you're drunk"
He was John Wick before John Wick - the Boogeyman's Boogeyman.
Frail yet fearless. That's probably the best way to describe how Val portrayed Doc's character
Best Doc Holliday portrayal there will ever be. All the props to Val Kilmer.
There will never be another, Val Kilmer landed the role that he was made for in Tombstone. The whole cast in this movie is great without a doubt, but Kilmer was the example of what an Oscar should mean. That's okay, just like the Emmy and Pulitzer Prize, these once shining monuments no longer hold the luster they once had. Kilmer's better than an Oscar.
They should have a "I was robbed award." Your right, Kilmer is better then any Oscar.
Yes!! So true 💯
I couldn’t agree more. Those ,worth nothing trophies, meaningless. If they were,Kilmer would have won every one there was to be for his role.
I, still to this day "You're no Daisy, you're no Daisy at all" all the time.
I don't say that but I say "Your a Daisy if you do" to my 9-year-old all the time. He gives a confused look each time.
"Poor Soul, you were just too high strung... I'm afraid the strain was more than he could bear."
I've never been more encapsulated by a acting performance. I have a childhood given distain for actors, but this guy gives me chills.
Doc is just so calm throughout the entire movie! Even when he faces off against Johnny Ringo, you can see no sign of fearfulness on his face, but it's all too clearly seen on Johnny's face! Each actor nailed their character, especially Michael Biehn and Val Kilmer!
Totally disagree , you can see the fear in docs face when he faces off on ringo at the end
@stevenmitsy1 Yes when the camera turns and pans and Doc comes on screen sweaty and red eyed. It's either fear or his sickness.
0:54 Doc just leisurely putting his hand on his pistol while his feet are up just speaks so much about his character in this moment.
Technically it's a revolver 😉
Val Kilmer was great, but let’s be real, the entire cast was beyond superb. Johnny Ringo and Curley Bill’s actors were fantastic.
Powers Boothe also very good as bad guy. His face has certain sharpness.
Yeah man, They're both great in everything they do.
Michael Biehn and Powers Boothe, both excellent actors
@@svenjansen2134 He was the perfect Jim Jones
"Don't mind him..he's just drunk , that's all". Best line ever !!!!!
Even the cowboys know not to mess with Doc.
"That's JUST my game." Chilling
Agreed! One of his best lines in the whole movie!
Why Johnny Ringo you looked like somebody just walked on your grave.
Val Kilmer got ALL of the good lines in that movie and delivered them exquisitely with that accent. He stole the show.
He didn't get 'ALL' of the good lines.
Lack of fear is the most intimidating thing to encounter. Doc truly has no fear. His heart rate probably went up barely at all, and only from the exertion of getting out of his chair.
Everyone's picked a line or quote from this movie shows how incredible each actor was in this movie and how they were able to bring out the life of the west before our own eyes
"Barber, proceed, sir.".
Such a gentleman. 😆
66th Academy Awards - "And the Oscar goes to not Val Kilmer"
Val Kilmer - "Dear oh dear, does this mean we can't be friends"
I'll be your huckleberry, thats just my game!! Love that line it's brilliant!! He surely was robbed for his Oscar winning performance!!
Not only is this a fantastic and well made movie, the casting for this movie made it even more of a better movie, val Kilmer did an amazing job in this movie.
That "Say When" was just cold blooded and haunting as "I'm your huckleberry". Both great lines
It's Huckle bearer
@@jesuscaro3177 No, it's not. From somebody who has had this discussion many times. It is huckleberry.
@@MrShadowfax42 Correct. Huckle bearer isn't even a real term. Never even existed until the 2000's.
A great movie. Top notch acting by top notch actors.
Simply one of the greatest movies of all time!
@@johncook9392 Have to agree with you. The story of Tombstone has been made many times, but this is definitely one of the best. Also like Gunfight at the O.K Corral with Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas. Not as accurate, but still a good one.
@@johncook9392 see the director's cut it will make you love this film even more
Well for Hollywood standards it was good - Still doesn't accurately depict that Johnny Ringo wasn't killed by Doc Holliday although the film attempted to make it look like it.
@@Quint1975 but in reality, it's not accurately known whether Ringo killed himself or was shot by someone else. But the fact that he had threatened to kill himself on a few occasions, and the that the last person to have seen him alive said that he was very drunk, does seem to point at suicide. But I'm sure Doc, or Earp would have happily of done Ringo had they had the opportunity.
Everyone in this movie was perfect, yet Michael Biehn and Val Kilmer were chefs kiss 🎀
Val Kilmer’s line “say when” in this scene is LEGENDARY. I rewind that part over and over.
my dad literally watched this move 10,000 times, no joke. I know every word by heart because he played it so much.
We would all be lucky to have a friend like Doc Holiday
And Wyatt's brothers didn't understand that. They didn't like him. Virgil even says it earlier.
Wyatt: "I like Doc."
Virgil: "Well, I don't."
Wyatt: "He makes me laugh."
I’m your huckleberry
Finally watched tombstone recently and within 20 mins or so it became one of my top favorites! Such a good movie, the writing, acting, and directing is awesome
This movie is EPIC in all aspects.. I first watched as a kid with my dad and I've been watching every year ever since.
If EVER there was a performance in a scene that deserved @ the very least an Academy Award nomination, it is Val's. I have watched thousands of movies over the years, and when he came out of the shadows, and said what he said, also how he said it, shocked me. Talk about being speechless. "That's just my game!" WOW.
"Barber?..."
"Yes sir?...."
"Proceed sir..."
❤🔥
So many iconic lines!!!! the acting is so phenomenal here A+!!!!!
This movie is a straight up masterpiece
Val, the epitome of cool was this character!!!
Johnnie is just to high strung. The stress was more than he could bare.
This is my favorite movie. Great actors and a great storyline.
val kilmers doc holliday has to be the coolest old west gun slinging character ever.cant think of one that tops him
what a tremendous cast, one of the best of all time
THEY DONT HAVE OUTDOOR BARBERS SILLY
Damn fine performance! When he steps in for Wyatt later in the movie and Ringo, when Doc asks if he remembers saying “playing for blood” says, “I was just kidding” and Doc replies, “ I wasn’t” was another time he showed how down he was. Doc knew Wyatt couldn’t take Ringo so, friend that he was, stepped in for him. That’s a real friend.
also he knows the TB gonna kill him soon anyway so hes a man with nothing to lose
Doc is an honourable man. He needs more justification to enter a fight on behalf of Wyatt than just friendship. Ringo has a point in announcing that it's not Doc's fight, however their previous unresolved dispute (play for blood) gives him that justification.
Everything single line of dialogue that Doc says in this movie is a catch phrase.
Something about that opening scene, when Wyatt says “all they ever did was laugh at him”. Always stuck with me since I first watched this when I was younger.
Val Kilmer's standout performance is all the more amazing when you consider just how good everyone else was. All of the main cast members nailed their respective roles: Kurt Russell, Dana Delaney, Sam Elliott, Powers Boothe, Michael Biehn, Bill Paxton, and Stephan Lang...they all crushed it and despite that Kilmer's performance is still what we all notice first. Shows you just how good he actually was in this one!
I love that you mentioned Stephan Lang. Rarely is he brought up. I have continued to use his great line throughout my post-Tombstone life. "We don't go for no law dogs roun' here" Substitute current topic for "law dogs" to suit your situation. Oh. And now that I've gotten myself into a situation where I'm discussing Tombstone cast members. I didn't know Billy Bob Thornton was in the movie until I watched it about 20 times and finally recognized him. As usual, great job for Billy Bob. And since we're giving credit, yes, it's true that Val and Michael stand out in their performances, BUT, the cast gives credit to Kurt Russell for making the movie happen as it did. Without him, the production could have collapsed, and there never would have been a Tombstone.
Fun fact:
It’s actually “I’m your huckle bearer” but the producers loved the way he said it so much they left it in there.
Michael Beihn deserved an Oscar for his performance in the movie.
When you’re drunk in public like Ringo is, it’s always good to have a friend like Curly Bill around… Also the line “Barber…proceed sir”…brilliant!
I totally agree he should have got an Oscar I couldn't imagine anybody else as doc Holliday
Love the little slide up in the background from the chair by Kilmer when he realizes the opportunity to intervene
The casting of this movie was damn near perfect.
I also love the callback to this same conversation they have in their final duel. The tension the director and the actors keep throughout the movie makes it a classic and a masterpiece.
Seems very fitting that Ringo and Doc battle it out once and for all...the encounter at the bar in Latin ..then this scene....teasers to the max...all lead to you no daisy
The term huckleberry was commonly used in this time. It basically means “I’m the perfect man for the job.”
It’s actually slang back then for being a pallbearer for someone
See below
@@kirayoungblood Never heard that one but it was often used for a broad range of slang. However, I’m right actually 😂
I always googled this and couldnt find an answer so THANK YOU! I'll be using this Term/Saying from now on because ive watched this movie a bunch of TIMES! Fave Movie Ever! So thank you.

He's 110% incorrect.
I deployed as an Armorer for SEAL Team 5 in Iraq. One of the platoons motto was “Say When”. T-shirts and hats made. One of the most badass quotes of all times.
I love how Doc is ALWAYS ready to go in this movie without hesitation but always keeps his cool/swag
Val Kilmer, Kurt Russell, Bill Paxton. Holy shit, that is an amazing cast of badass dudes.
I think you forgot a few, like Sam Elliot, Powers Boothe and Charlton Heston, hell even Michael Biehn did a good job in this movie.
Not to mention Michael Rooker and Billy Zaine.

Wasn't Billy Zaine the Phantom?
Michael Biehn fought the terminator and saved humanity from aliens. What else does that guy have to do to be considered badass?
I love that while Doc was in the barber's chair he's already got his hand on one of his guns as soon as Ringo starts acting up
