1800s frontier America more or less. mid to late 1800s and Western States .... frontier moved with the westward "expansion" ! Kentucky was "west" once upon a time ! I don’t have a hard line in the sand. For example, Hatfields and McCoys I would consider a western, if I had to choose a genre...and it takes place along the Kentucky West Virginia border...not very west at all and yet, still has the feel of a western to me. |

I'm pretty sure that in 30 years, with History rewrites, and the burning of History books that "hate mongering" people don't like, a lot of new fangled people will just think "The Alamo" is going to be about one of those motels named "Alamo". You took a conversation about movie genres and somehow managed to ruin it. Figures. All you manage to do is ruin fun. Ironic, since I'm one of the few posters here who doesn't "ruin fun", and about the only poster who doesn't give praise only to movies meant to "ruin fun" and just promote senseless hate. Lets take the prime example of that. About every movie Clint Eastwood has been involved with has been purposely made to "ruin fun" and promote senseless, unprovoked, unmotivated hate, and no movie does this move than "High Plains Drifter", which pretty much begins when the main character supposedly enacts revenge by killing the only three characters in the entire movie that he has no reason to take revenge against. Like most Eastwood bombs, there is zero credibility in motivation, and zero interesting characters, yet MOVIEMOUTH so loves to ruin fun that MOVIEMOUTH claims this was an interesting movie, even so far as claiming it was different, when it is totally Hollywood, totally predictable, and totally run of the mill, taking no risks. Just the same old Hollywood hatefulness formula. If you make a criticism, it should at least have some foundation in reality, and movie mouth has absolutely zero foundation in reality, and is totally out of touch. So, go praise your love of "ruining fun", but you embarrass yourself when you try to say that is the opposite of what you like to do.
