You might want to stay away from 1923 then. That left off in the worst way as super cowboy did not even reach the main ranch.

Who knows he might just pony up the money and tone down the fourth one, but you would think the last one will be the biggest set pieces and the most bombastic because it's the climax? I don't know. Could be that the other ones actually generate some traction and then suddenly people are excited for the conclusion.
Guess only time will tell.

I dont think this is a concern (yet). They've always planned for streaming and VOD to be a big part of how this movie gets seen. This is a really good idea, cause like I said earlier in the thread, part 1 is perfect VOD or watch it on streaming (its coming to Max).
People who see it seem to, for the most part, enjoy it, though I imagine the audience for Westerns is pretty self selecting.
Bumping this 4 to 6 weeks is probably good for the chance people see part 2 (also august has like 2 other major studio releases every weekend, another reason to bump your niche movie targeted at 40+ year olds a month or so)

Last good Western I saw was Old Henry, none of those actors are famous enough to have names, and thus none give a shit about their Politics, I’d say being lefty scum is not the demo that appreciates Westerns, but I’m sure a bunch of pathetic lefty nerds played RDR2, so I don’t know why a Western would be unmarketable

Both great movies. Both better than Bone Tomahawk. I just don't consider them Westerns.

Hostiles (Christian Bale, good classic but modern made western movie)
warrior (netflix)
usual taylor sheridan verse stuff - Yellowstone, 1923, 1888, dunno how many more years he has turned to TV shows
haven't watched yet but other western shows I know: Longmire, Lawman bass Reeves, That Dirty Black Bag
recent western movies I downloaded but haven't watched
The Dead Don't Hurt with Viggo (Aragon) I believe

Saw the preview yesterday and couldnt figure out if that was Kevin Costner or not in the trailer. Figured out it was and decided to watch it - I generally like the stuff he's in. When I started it, I was psyched and then that excitement plummeted as I saw it was 3 plus hours to watch. Split it up into 2/3 and 1/3 and.. that was a bit more tolerable finishing it up today.
As others have said, this really should have been a mini series. If part 2 is coming in mid August - then anyone that wants to watch it will have have a GD 7 hours or more to go through. Thats a big pill to swallow and I'm kind of glad it forces me to break it into two parts.
As far as the actual movie? Its an interesting love story to westerns and I'm looking forward to seeing how everyone involved all comes together into a big ruckus in the end.
