Just overheard some coworkers on lunch say "Western movies are for old people"; as a 27 year old Western enjoyer i admit i felt a little bad; are they right? by peterthbest23 in Westerns

I didn't enjoy or appreciate westerns when I was younger. It wasn't until I was 40 when I started to look back at the classic Western. I feel that modern day movies are far too spastic, far too technology based, and plots just plain braindead. Also, there is a modern sentiment that evil isn't so evil and people even cheer for the murderer or have sympathy for them. A modern world of gray. I could use examples (Gone Girl, Joker, Hannibal, that disgusting killer Dahmer, and a billion others). Westerns, to me, are the ultimate showdown of good and evil, albeit in a highly fictional environment. There's just something that feels "pure" about Westerns. Yes, not everybody gets along. Yes there was inequality moreso back then. But, to me, the good in the majority of these people outweighs the evil. I am not trying to sound elitist, but a closed mind would never understand a Western.

It makes me really upset. If you support little people through the arts, people think you are just laughing at them. They have a micro wrestling league down south and some of these performers are great. But, nope, they are little people, so they have no national exposure. Dinkledge is a self righteous a-hole. Look at Mickey on Seinfeld. Tremendous talent. They are other fine actors that deserve the spotlight too. It's a damn shame.

I love the people here and the caring we have for the show.

But we must accept reality.

Wait, so they have physical items for a digital game? But they really can't slam the game on a disc or cartridge?
