Really good movie. Someday there will be a sub-$200 Blu-Ray player which I will buy, and then rent the disc from Netflix.

I am not a big fan of westerns either, but I really loved this movie. What was the last western you liked?

Anything with Clint Eastwood is fine by me.

Looks like it's another notable release for January, 2008 along with Zodiac Direcor's Cut and Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair (if it gets released).

He's also the first credited writer on the new version. In Script Magazine, the writing partners who did the remake said they pretty much took the old script, which was fine, and gave it a chase-movie second act.

The original version is one of the great Western films with its moody, almost noir quality and its hoped this remake will draw some attention to this classic
they had respect for Halstead Welles all right...

they credited him on the remake as a writer...

i think gave him first credit...

I don't watch Westerns. It's a genre well ignored in my collection. But I am curious about this movie.

I haven't seen the original, does it also have the
Spoiler:
bizarre 'Assault on Precinct 13' ending, where the whole town is suddenly attacking those two?


If I had liked the movie leading up to that point, I think I would've had trouble suspending my disbelief there but, fortunately, that wasn't an issue.

i was gonna mention, i've seen this out early as well.

anyone looking for an early copy?

not at wal-mart, i think i live in great city for this. i saw flash gordon SE almost 3 week prior to release, and during the ED WOOD thing a few years ago, i found numerous copies.
