    Sheriff Langston: Well, we'll see about that. I'm Sheriff John Langston. As you may have guessed, I am not from these parts.
    Paden: You're kidding.
    Long story short, he doesn't speak with an american accent. 🙂

              he speaks in his normal british voice why would he do otherwise? people dont realize that in the post civil war west, one person in 7 were british also one in 7 were black that is one of the things i liked about this movie what i want to know is wheres the sequel??? the last line in the movie was "we'll be back".
              i can see the premise/plot their nephew (kevin costners/scott glenn) in silverado grows up (looks a lot like aston kutcher) and gets into trouble former sheriff kevin kline cant help his wife (roseanne arquette) made him promise to give up guns forcing the uncles to return from california to help their nephew again in the meantime john cleese has been trying to hunt down his former adversaries seeking to avenge his most embarrasing day, danny glover has become a succesful farmer, sharon stone and kevin costners love child is another trouble maker pretty good huh????

                Right on! Yes I always thought this movie deserved a good sequel. Your ideas definitely have merit. Definitely needs to be some situation that reunites them as decent guys minding their own business but who won't stand by while people in general and especially their friends and family get stomped on by a pack of mean greedy pigs.
                I like the idea of Kline giving up his guns and I would add the twist that something heinous happens that changes his wife's mind. Sort of like Patriot Games when Jack Ryan's wife urges him to rejoin the CIA after their daughter is almost killed.
                Everyone should boycott all movies until they make this movie! OK, well that might be a bit much. Couldn't live without the movies!

                  I think in a documentary on the first DVD, Kasdan says he did write a sequel, but felt that too much time had passed since the original and that, with the lives the characters lived, most of them probably wouldn't have been around by the time of the sequel. Also, he said he never really thought much of doing sequels and felt you should just do your best on a film and then move on, so he never really pursued it. Still, I'd love to see what the script was like that he wrote.

                      That is a great observation.

                        In a country made great by immigration, I would expect to hear a multitude of different accents.
                        I wonder when the "American accent" as we all know it (yes, I know there are quite a few different versions) finally stabilised?

                            He doesn't have an American Western accent. He just speaks with his normal voice. He's brilliant in this movie.

                              Probably misquoted, but I loved that bit.

                                My favorite John Cleese line is his first, when he enters the bar during Mal's (Danny Glover's) fight with the local rednecks straight out of a Monty Python sketch.
                                "What's all this, then?"

                                  Loved this movie. One of my favorite westerns. I thought Cleese was good, and jfemaleder, you're only slightly off. I think he said "my jurisdiction". I loved that part too.

                                      I love it when he told the bar owner Carter not to push his luck when Carter asks who was going to paid for the damages that was cause by the fight between Danny Glover and Carter's three goons.

                                        Cleese: "Now, let's talk about you chaps."
                                        Kline: "We'd like to stay."
                                        Cleese: "That remains to be seen."
                                        Funniest scene in the whole movie.

                                          That's more a standard English policeman's line like as in "Hallo, Hallo, Hallo, what's all this then?" Certainly predates the Python era.
