Knights of Sundae Monday
The western is dead, right? Didn't Unforgiven and Dead Man kill it once and for all? I guess not, with the recent success of 3:10 To Yuma. What's even more fascinating is the adaptation of the western into a sci-fi setting. Since the west has been conquered, the only direction we can go is up. This is an idea that should be used more than just in Firefly and Serenity. And so this week I submit another sci-fi western with a bit of kung fu thrown in for good taste.

It's amazing how the western has been revitalized recently, I've been working through them and some are quite fascinating. I love the space westerns too!

man, to be honest...i think the western has a better chance to pick up some sporatic popularity the sci-fi film does.
who knows' though...we'll see.
