3:10 to Yuma (2007)

[Tucumcari Bound]

I agree with  ing him for Unforgiven, but I haven't seen Open Range.

TB, who gave you permission to have more posts than me?  I might have to steal some of your stars.

HAHAHAHA! Take as many stars as you want my good buddy. 

[Tucumcari Bound]

Who's getting excited!!! This is coming. It's getting great early reviews.

[KevinJCBJK]

I hope it's better than The Proposition. Just my opinion, but I was disapointed when I rented the Propostion.

It's not for everybody. I personally rank it high myself.

[The Peacemaker]

I thought The Proposition was lame.



I'm am soooo F*cking excited about 3:10 to Yuma!

I think you're lame!  ;)That film is in no way lame. It's filmed and acted beautifully. Great poetic look into the west.

[KevinJCBJK]

I shall respect both of your opinions.

I've only seen it once.

[Tucumcari Bound]

I'm obviously joking with Peacemaker but I honestly think it's a beautiful film. Like I said before, it's not everyone's cup of tea. I like the way it was filmed in my humble opinion.

[KevinJCBJK]

I thought Unforgiven was a better film than Open Range, but I still liked Open Range, it's still one of the best westerns in recent years.

Yeah that poster to 3:10 would have been better if that was a female.

As I've said a dozen times before: Western is coming back.

Yeah, we've been hearing this claim for 20+ years. . .  If the film's a hit, then we'll talk. I'll wait until then, though.

No, we'll talk now. Even if this isn't a huge hit, the western still will never die. There's always room for a western film.

Yeah, the Western will never "die", but whether it will be popular or not is something else entirely.

I see what you're saying. However, I think the main problem with the Western Genre today is that it's not being utilized properly. What I mean by that is they're not using the right actor's. With the upcoming 3:10 to Yuma remake, the casting was perfect! Russell Crowe and Christian Bale are men amongst men. They're not "pretty boys" persay. We're not seeing a Leonardo Dicarprio or a Paul Walker here, actors who look like they couldn't fight there way out of a wet paper bag. Russell Crowe and Christian Bale not only are amazing actors, but they have great charisma and are masculine.

With the right script, direction, and acting, I believe the western genre could do wonders in my humble opinion. I am curious to see how the public reacts to 3:10 to Yuma.

[Groggy]

Well, I'll say that I hope that the Western becomes popular again, but moreover I hope that there are at least some genuinely good Westerns that come out of it.

Oh yeah, I agree with you totally here. I'm praying this is a success. If it is I'm sure studio's will take more chances with a western film.

I'm still hoping for a Martin Scorsese, Michael Mann, Sam Mendes, or Quentin Tarantino Western. I think there's plenty of directors today who could make some great films in this genre.
