i want to see both, actually. but both seem to me to be very alone time type movies for me... for different reasons. 'Paris' is something i want to focus on without distraction, and 'Pooh' is an indulgence that i highly doubt my wife would find any interest in... i may be able to watch it with my niece though.

Not that I really cared, because it was basically a run out the clock type situation once Harrison Ford showed up, but really you should at least pretend that the audience might ask a basic question from time to time.

This movie was just mailed in from the start - the set pieces suck, the characters suck, the aliens suck, Olivia Wilde needs some sandwiches, the whole "they are Indians so they must be wise, mystical and true" bullcrap sucks, its just a paint by numbers kit of a stinking pile of poo.

Wonderful... I'm so tired of movies like this, I threw up a little bit in my mouth when I read your comments. Thanks for the heads up.

Why is it so hard to make a good movie nowadays??

Movie Review: Cowboys & Aliens | Geeks of Doom

Harry saw both COWBOYS & ALIENS today!
Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news.

probably the only 2 reasons I have any desire to see this...

Clancy Brown’s MEACHAM, the town preacher that packs heat and has a bit of tough love going in him. Every scene that Clancy has he steals from Ford and Craig and anyone else that happens to be in his way. Maybe that’s because the Kurgan commands respect without question. But it is how I look at it.

Sam Rockwell plays Doc, the saloon owner – and I love how he’s just constantly annoyed. He’s like a big city guy that moved out West to find his fortune and found that he just sucks ass at everything the West has to offer. He has a bit of a mouth on him. He’s intelligent, but that gets you nothing in the West that was ruled with six-guns and sweat. He’s lost his wife to the Aliens… and I love that everyone has been slighted by these unseen ****s.

Sorry guys. Saw it today and loved it. Thought it was exactly as advertised. Cowboys is in the title first so I expected more Western meets sci-fi and it did. I can definitely see it being in my Top 10 list this year.

That review from Geeks comparing it to Super 8 needs his movie viewing card revoked. Talk about off base!
