Young Guns (1988) REACTION *FIRST TIME WATCHING* 

One of my favorite movies of all time

Peyote is used for vision quests. Used by indigenous peoples of North American tribes, such as the Commanche, APACHE, Navajo, Utes, ectra!!!

as I said in Young Guns 2 comments this movie is considered to be the closest thing to historically accurate for a movie. In real life Billy and the gang really were trapped in the house however there was no shoot out when they escaped. to this day no one knows how they got out except that they were able to sneak out undetected. The Buckshot Roberts shootout really did happen however instead of him being trapped in a outhouse it was a small house they surrounded him in. what's fascinating about that shootout was in real life not only did Buckshot kill Dick & injure Chavez & Doc like the movie portrayed. He actually injured 2 additional men in the group (talk about going out like a G). Also Buckshot didn't come at them like the movie portrayed, he was actually trying to leave town when the regulators came for him & he wasn't about to surrender. Also in the scene where Billy kills Mcclosky the traitor. In real life it was never proven if he really was a spy. some of the men including Billy were mad at Murphy's men and they wanted blood so they turned on him just for being apart of Murphy's gang in the past. There was a argument but most of them were so mad they killed him as he pleaded for his life telling them he really wasn't a spy. Many historians believe he was a victim of the circumstances. Finally even though the regulators did get badges in real life there never was a intent to arrest Murphy's men like the movie portrayed. Most of them were bloodthirsty & like minded just like Billy & killed as many of Murphy's men as they could which is why Buckshot refused to surrender cause he knew they would try to kill him anyways just like the others.

Couple of cool pieces of trivia. The guy that plays pat garrett is John Wayne's son. Lew Wallace was the govenor of NM at the time. He was writing the book (which later became the movie) Ben Hur at the time.

Thanks Tank - greetings from DTLA.

The only picture of Billy showed him holding his rifle in the left hand which was in reverse. He was actually holding it in his right hand.

A great movie and for the most part its a true story with some dramatic enhancements. The shoot out in the end actually happened in real life, but not quite as crazy as in the movie 😁

Tom Cruise had a 'blink & you'll miss' cameo at the end shootout!! Absolute love this film 🤠 If you haven't done already, definitely check out the 2nd film I agree with Tank, you have to watch The Shield, one of my fave tv shows of all time

I am 100% on board with you watching The Shield That was a badass series! If you like The Wire, you’ll dig The Shield

Billy the Kid killed his 1st man, when he was 12 years old, when a man beat up & raped his mother.

Who votes against the shield? Seriously a breakout show that shouldn't be overlooked

This triggered a theme of hot, young cowboy movies and tv shows. One gem was tv show The Young Riders (starring a young josh brolin and anthony zerb, melissa leo). Great 90’s tv series. Created by an ancient western producer and influenced by modern themes. Not as adult as deadwood or anything as it was made for dinner-time tv. Good cast, premise, locations and good in and out storylines each episode. Melissa Leo showing she had the oscar chops before she got the respect. Pretty sure the whole series is on youtube.

Takes me back….

Aww, you didn't recognize the sample quote from the beginning of the classic Warren G song "Regulate." I'm mostly rock and metal, but I love the G funk.

Good reaction I like the second one.

Gotta watch the expiration date on that off-brand peyote.

Both young gun movies were great but historically not accurate, some things were true like the shoot out where Dick Brewer (charlie Sheen) was killed but in reality Buckshot Roberts also died fro m his wounds 2 hours later, Charlie Bowdre was not killed at the Macsween house battle, he was killed at stinking springs a few months later by Sherriff Pat Garret's pose which in the second movie shows Doc Scurlock being the one killed there but in reality Doc Scurlock left New Mexico and Billy the kid for Texas after the Lincoln county war and never spoke about it his entire life and he died in his bed in 1929 and there was no Chinese lady either. Although many people still to day debate whether Pat Garret actually shot and killed Billy the Kid at Fort Sumner in july 1881 because it was dark and Garrett could not see Billy when he fired and Billy or whomever was apparently un-armed which meant even though Garrett was sherrif would have been murder. But then again that is what many historians still debate, and we all know that all Hollywood movies are never true to History due to Dramatic effects and story telling, because Braveheart too was totally inaccurate i mean the battle of Sterling bridge was an actual bridge and not an open field battle as shown in the movie. In any rate i hope you enjoyed these two movies of Henry McCarty aka William H. Bonney aka Billy the Kid and for the second movie Bon Jovi sang a great theme song called "Blaze of Glory"

🤣aliens riding unicycles 🤣👍‼

Awesome reaction, beat since you did 'Nobody'. God bless. P.s Please don't tell me that aliens don't ride unicycles...You'll shatter my belief system lol.

Someone should do a parody titled Young Nuns.

You should do a video on the second movie. It is a good movie almost as good as the first you’ll understand what I mean once you see the film.

Clicked so fast lol. I love this movie

Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez. They are related but don't have the same last name.

Young Guns 2 is just as good if not better than the first. Definitely worth seeing. And the actor who plays Chaves is Lou Diamond Phillips. He starred in a phenomenal rock n roll movie based on a true story called “La Bamba” (1987) Cannot recommend that movie enough! A great film.

did you know pat garrett is the one that killed bily the kid so trusting is not the right answer

The scene when billy is talkin to that dude in the bar... about billy lol... had that happen to me when i was younger. Someone hated me but never met me or seen me. I was listening to him talking shit about me and i agreed.... until i had enough and told him my name and then proceeded to kick kick ass lmao

Dude. You look just like Kurgen.

If you liked this movie, I'd think you'll like the next one.

Young Guns two was better including the soundtrack by Bon Jovi
