Western films are hard to come by......
In the last 10 years there have been no considerable uprises in the making of western films no films like ford and hawks made in the 30's up to the late 60's
fewer and fewer are being made those that are being made are very well done but to few films like tombstone, unforgiven and geronimo:an american legend these are by no means not good but it dosn't help the genre when people don't make films like once upon a time in the west fun outragous very well done and over the top features with hardly nothing to lose just a bit of money not a huge budget. It's almost like you have to make one that makes money before anybody will even spend time thinking about making one. That hurts because people in general are missing out on a great genre with undiscovered quilties and myths that havn't even been touched uponed and the longer they stayaway from this genre the more harder it will be to get back to it.
What do you guys think the Western genre isn't popular with todays audiences ?
What make the western genre such a none hot commodity?
What are some of your favorite Westerns ?
