If you're referring to the 1989 screenplay at the Facebook page called "Cowboys and Aliens Screenplay", I agree.

And the Facebook screenplay in 1989. Quite a bit earlier.

There was Facebook on 1989?!

Damn that Zuckerberg bastard is truly a genius

Though I'll always hate him for back-stabing Spidey with the help of JT

😛

Found a copy of the trade apparantly its a rare find if you do manage to find it.

This has the potential to be really good. I am slightly worried after Iron Man 2, though. That movie felt like Jon Favreau was tired of his job. Hopefully this is the kick he needs.

Which is strange because Jon is a big fan of Iron Man.

I'm thinking hmm... Gargoyles vs. Janitors.

In 1873 Arizona, a loner named Jake Lonergan (Daniel Craig) awakens with no memory of his past and a mysterious shackle around his wrist. He enters the town of Absolution where he learns he committed many crimes he doesn't remember and is wanted by many people, including Colonel Woodrow Dolarhyde (Harrison Ford), a harsh leader who rules the town with an iron fist. But Absolution soon faces an even greater threat when mysterious forces attack the town from the sky, sparing no one in their path. While Jake's shackle holds the key to defeating them, he must align himself with Dolarhyde and other former enemies to make a stand against this mysterious and more powerful new foe.

007 and Han Solo in a wild West alien film? I'm so there! This doesn't look like anything epic, but it looks like a lot of fun!

saw this trailer while seeing thor and this is one I plan on skipping even though I am a huge fan of Harrison Ford and he is my favorite actor.His presence wont be able to make up for this garbage slated to be released soon.

Well garbage or not I think the thing's going to do huge B.O. Interesting though that they say it's derived from the '06 graphic novel when in fact there are not one but TWO antecedents with similar plots, characters and, of course, the same name - the 1989 screenplay on Facebook I brought up a few months ago and also the ashcan comic that was published if I recall in '02 and then renamed "Wayout West". You can read the screenplay for free at FB and buy the ashcan at Amazon.

It's probably based very directly on the 2006 comic, while only having certain elements in common with the other sources you cited.

Perhaps so. Who knows? But if you've read all three and compared them I'd be interested in your opinion of each!

I'm pretty sure it is based on the graphic novel.
