Speedo Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 1 minute ago, Ghent said: Have not seen Bone Tomahawk. Should I? I wish they'd come out with some new Westerns from the Indian perspective. Also, there needs to be a definitive movie about Custer's Last Stand. It's 2021, we can watch whitey take an L without getting triggered, surely... Bone Tomahawk is a horror western with Kurt Russell, Matthew Fox, Patrick Wilson & Richard Jenkins. They try to rescue Patrick Wilson's wife from the crazy ass mutant cannibal Indians. It sounds stupid but it's good, probably one of my favorite movies. It's fun. Yeah, there aren't a lot of movies from the Indian perspective. Although, if there were ever a time, it's now. I'd like to see the different tribes go against each other ... something like Apocalypto with Comanche or Apache would be great. Hell, if they used native folklore for horror movies set in those time frames it'd be fantastic. Unfortunately the closest you'll get to exploring Native Culture or the destruction of it is fucking Avatar or it's sequels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original tv series only covers the first one right? Yeah, I believe the TV series only covers Lonesome Dove. I know they've made tv series or films for the other books but I don't think the Lonesome Dove tv series touches on any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they cover the other books I'll check out Bone Tomahawk I would also classify News of the World as a western. Movie out now with Tom Hanks. It was good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meltdown Tracker Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Speaking of Westerns, is that Netflix movie the Ballad of whatever Scrubbs or something any good? Coen brothers usually put out good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one of them sucked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 @Ghent I saw News of the World listed on Amazon to rent for 20 bucks ... I didn't realize it was a new movie. I guess it JUST came out? Also, have you ever read the Dark Tower Series? They're more sci-fi fantasy but they definitely have a decent western feel to them. They might be up your alley.

Speedo Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Ended up putting on this movie called Booksmart, I guess it's pretty much a Super Bad for a new generation. I thought it was just gonna be something for the background but it was pretty good, ended up enjoying the whole thing. I'm pretty fly still, hip to all the cool shizzle the lil' homies are into the days! In all seriousness though, I rarely laugh out loud at anything ... movies, shows, stand-up but this movie actually had some pretty funny moments. Definitely worth a watch?

Kay Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Saw "His House" last night. Really good film, not what I was expecting, a little more meaningful than I expect from a horror movie. Acting was superb. 8/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasa Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 I loved Booksmart so much. YA is such a difficult genre to nail at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meltdown Tracker Posted February 14, 2021 Report Share Posted February 14, 2021 I watched Waterworld last night. It’s like a cheesier version of Mad Max but on water. I liked it, but the characters were pretty cliche. Great action sequences though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
