LOL.

We pay for 4K, but we don't get more than 720p unless we use some proprietary shit hardware and agree to their super-invasive "privacy policy" - and they expect people to NOT set sail in the high seas? GTFO..

For A Few Dollars More is so-so (but I'd still watch it again), but The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly is epic.

And if you enjoy them, then take a crack at High Plains Drifter or Pale Rider which are both excellent though share an underlying theme. The Outlaw Josey Wales is also well worth a watch, as is the magnificent (and best picture Oscar winner) Unforgiven starring and directed by an older, wiser, and grittier Clint Eastwood.

Definitely will check out High Plains Drifter and Magnificent Seven. Pale Rider and Unforgiven are already on the list along with Gran Torino. Also already watched The Outlaw Josey Wales, it was a really good movie.

You might also want to add Yojimbo and The Seven Samurai to your list too - they're the Kurasawa films that A Fistful of Dollars and The Magnificent Seven are western (in both senses) remakes of.

I watched Yojimbo already (which I personally found to be mediocre). I'm actually planning of watching Seven Samurai before Magnificent Seven.
