Beautiful live sets, cinematography, the acting is no joke either... a true sight for my sore eyes, so why did it bomb?

The EXTREMELY sad realization hit me a few minutes ago that the "wild west" no longer holds any fascination or mystery for todays kids, its just dead to them... "horses and trains, old time guns and cowboy hats... I'm bored Dad".

No lie, this movie, and what became of it... feels like a true passing of the torch, kids simply don't give a shit about this kind of old stuff anymore, they couldn't be bothered, its somehow too far removed from them.

This movie should've been HUGE, it wasn't, and its not my generations fault... but it still makes me sad... it seems like all these kids today want is some bleep bloop blarp bullshit, no soul, no fascination with history... unless its some "old" Nintendo game.

Not to blame the kids, it happens... but its sad beyond words to see the western die before my eyes.

Ah, thought you'd catch me with the late April Fools. Not happening, scott free.
