Live Poll: Favorite Neo-Western Movie

Neo-Western is a subgenre of the Western that reflects the traditions of the western film genre like characters, settings, and themes but is set in the contemporary, even urban, American West or frontiers beyond.

Which of these is your favorite movie?

Perhaps you could add a brief definition of Neo-Western films?

25,000 votes is a bit of an overly-stringent requirement for a list of Neo-Westerns. Neo-Western is a pretty niche subgenre and a lot of the best examples of it are fairly obscure. Most of the items on your list so far are quite a bit of a stretch to call "westerns" in any sense. I strongly suggest having a look at this list (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Neo-Western_films) to get a better idea of what a Neo-Western is, eliminating about 75% of the ones on your current list and replacing them with better examples, or changing the title to better reflect whatever it is you're trying to do.

The criteria are directly proportional to the number of titles we get.

 

Yes, the subgenre is a pretty niche not obscure but ambiguous, as it is mentioned in the list it follows the tradition of Western films like characters, setting, and themes it doesn’t entirely have to be called a “Western”. Wikipedia, yes it’s a great forum to find titles for a list, but you can never find the titles of a vaguely interpreted one nor a one with an ambiguous approach.

I've eliminated about 20% of the list and added 4 more titles, thanks for the correction and suggestions. 

whatever it is you're trying to do.

Neo-Western, it is.
