Saw that yesterday and am not sure what I should think about it

What do you think?

I saw the trailer yesterday at the cinema and the general reaction from the audience was laughters. I watched "True Grit" which is a great cowboy movie. There are hundreds of great Alien movies too but that just seems plain ridiculous to me. Just my opinion anyway...

Could go either way but I really hope it's good!

I just think about special LOTOW scenarios.

Saw the trailer months ago. Definite potential but unsure if it'll be any good.
Trying to decide whether to see it in theaters or wait for the rental.

I heard about it at the end of last year and thought "What?!"

Then saw the trailer when I went to see True Grit and thought the same as Mr J.

The trailer does have a good look about it, and with some of the the people involved in it, it should have.

I'm usually a bit of a purist where my love of good westerns is concerned, but I'm certainly prepared to give it the benefit of the doubt - should be fun anyway.

Reminded me of one thought I've had for years, wouldn't it be so much better if the next time someone decides to re-make the War of the Worlds, they actually made it set in 1890s England and following the H G Wells story, rather than yet another 'update' set in 'present day' America.

Trailer has been floating around for a while (in the States anyway), the comic was good & a lot of fun hopefully the movie follows suit. From what I have read the tone of the movie is non-campy, the cast keeps calling it "Unforgiven with aliens". Very good cast (Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Sam Rockwell) so fingers crossed on this one!

I guess I had been playing too much Fallout, but when I saw the thing on his arm I thought "Pipboy 3000". I am looking forward to this movie, my wife on the other hand.... she doesn't like scifi OR cowboy movies. She is just doomed. Hehehe.

James Bond and Indiana Jones in Men in Black 3: Converging Sequels

The cast might save this one and the premise is...uh, interesting.

Two great genre in one movie - what can go wrong?

Well does anyone remember those old B-movies with Cow Boys Vs Dinosaurs?

I watched a fairly recent movie called 'The Burrowers' with Cowboys Vs some strange Monster things, some sort of horror movie but, was okey.

So very much, well this is one of those movies one should not expect anything at all beyond utter shite, chances are there will be something worth the time in it.

I kinda liked "The Burrowers", not great but very watchable, the Old West is a very underused horror setting.

Well, there is always good old deadlands, tough I doubt that would make a good mainstream movie. Especially if you consider hell on earth and lost colony as cannon as well.
