I love that one, but I've watched it fairly recently.
The Sons of Katie Elder dvd from the library seems to be scratched up. Very frustrating. Last night we went with a Bond flick instead.

In this group, it's between Big Jake and Rio Lobo, but since you've already watched El Dorado, Big Jake is the obvious choice. Rio Lobo, Rio Bravo and El Dorado are all basically the same movie (NTTAWWT if it's John Wayne).
Re: What John Wayne movie should my son and I watch next?
I always liked Rio Bravo over El Dorado because to me Rickey Nelson trumped a James Caan that couldn't shoot! That an Angie Dickinson trumped Charlene Holt as the chick!!!
Re: What John Wayne movie should my son and I watch next?
Rio Lobo has a special father/son meaning to me. In '70 or '71, as ten or eleven year old, I took my father to see the movie at the local theater for Father's Day.
Love the running joke in Big Jake when just about everybody McCandles meets thinks McCandles was dead.

Yeah, but when you sub in Ricky Nelson and Dean Martin for Caan and Mitchum you get stuck with more singing.
It is amazing that Hawks made the same movie three times (in response to High Noon, right?).
