    If I was asked to make a "Section 31" film I think I'd just do A Fistful of Dynamite/Gisu, La Testa/Duck, You Sucker! on a fringe world between the Klingons and Romulans, have the Bandits all by Klingons and Sean be an ex-starfleet guy on the run after he joined a revolutionary group in the triangle

    Magnificent Seven is a good spectacle film. I swear by Leone's 5, all of them good for different reasons (personal favorite is Duck You Sucker! for hipster reasons & also it's kinda goofy). The one you "should" watch is The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, quintessential to me

    DUCK, YOU SUCKER! is surely one of Sergio Leone's most peculiar films. Rod Steiger and James Coburn seem to have beamed into the film from different planets and yet they have undeniable chemistry. It also sports some of Morricone's weirdest music. Recommended!

    Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in America premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on May 23, 1984. This third installment in his Once Upon a Time trilogy (preceded by 1968's Once Upon a Time in the West and 1971's Duck, You Sucker!) was his first directorial effort (in 13 years) and also his last.

    Second part of the last trilogy of Sergio Leone, who after suffering many cuts by the american producers titled this movie in USA "DUCK, YOU SUCKER" and in UK "A FISTFUL OF DYNAMITE". The main theme “Sean” represents one achievement in Morricone's catalog. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbSo...

    Celebrating what would have been Ennio Moriconne's 96th birthday w/ a first-time watch of Sergio Leone's Duck, You Sucker (aka A Fistful of Dynamite). IMO, he was one of the greatest composers of the 20th century (film or otherwise), & is on the Mount Rushmore of film composers. A true original!

    Duck, You Sucker! is actually really good so far jokes aside. I kinda expected a Western action film from the title and... well yes technically it is indeed in both of those genres but I didn't know it was about revolutionaries or expect it to have so many surrealist scenes. Def late period Leone.
