Early XKCD issues frequently referenced Randall's fear of velociraptors. There hasn't been a reference to this fear in many years though. Did Randall forget this trope? Is he no longer scared of dinosaurs? [[Special:Contributions/108.162.216.112|108.162.216.112]] 19:55, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Horror is about my least favorite genre of film. Westerns rank around the same. I find both pretty boring, though there are some suspense films, when done right, that I do like. -boB (talk) 17:55, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

I agree about horror but the Western A Fistful of Dollars and some more by Sergio Leone are on my personal top movie list. --Dgbrt (talk) 18:02, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
