Appaloosa or lollapalooza? That is the question...

Yeah, I came up with that one on my own. Anyway, I watched Appaloosa on Tuesday and I have to say it was a really good movie. Ed Harris was excellent, and Viggo Mortensen was too. I had read the book before watching the movie, and it was pretty much right on the nail with what was on the screen. Sometimes it can be hit or miss when books are made into movies. It's difficult to capture everything on screen from a book. Usually its best to leave a book to ones imagination instead of trying to portray it visually. I think it was also nice to watch a western movie. I have not watched too many, but when its done right, the scenery, the acting there is nothing like it.
Anyway, all I got to say is Go back inside...No go back inside.(Yes,yes another inside joke.)

you should watch 3:10 to Yuma which came out semi-recently. it's pretty good as far as westerns go. also, i've heard the series Deadwood is amazing.
