Could be good, Costner hasn't had a hit in a while so I hope it does well.

Strange that Kevin Costner's signature on his webpage doesn't match his signature on the Dances with Wolves: SE insert.

Robert Duvall getting billing ahead of Costner? I guess he doesn't have as big an ego as people think (getting second billing before behing Elijah Wood and Kurt Russell).

It doesn't looks so bad. I don't have any high expectation on Costner's film anymore but I hope it would be a good movie.

How can you tell the quality of a movie from the POSTER? I don't get it.

Ok, went to IMDB and found that it's Buena Vista. Cool.

Judging from the title, I would have to guess it is about hippie chicken farmers.

I think their first names might be listed there too, right above their last names in small reddish print? Or does that say something else?

The poster looks cool, but I know absolutely nothing about this movie. Despite the popular opinion about Kevin Costner around here, I tend to like his movies and would be interested in seeing him in another Western, but I'd like to find out more about what this is about. Anybody got any details?

What I found interesting on Costner's Website is some update dated May 24 that said the movie cast includes Michael Jeter even though he died back in March. Is this movie done filming or was it done before he died? Be interested in seeing one of his last performances.

Ah, I can't see that too well badger. If I squint really really hard, I can just make out what your talkin' about. Bad monitor, ya see?

As for Costner, I'm no fan, but I did like Dances With Wolves, so his record with westerns makes me at least willing to give this a look.

I thought it was the first item on Costner's suicide "To-Do" list.

Costner's directing the film, so he probably gave Duvall the spot out of the kindness of his heart...plus, wouldn't you rather have your name in the MIDDLE?!

Costner directed this? I am starting to lose Faith already as I flashback to the nightmare that was The Postman.

Never mind what I said about losing Faith, here she is...




It's what every movie could benefit from IMO.
