High Tech High Noon: Gunslinging Robots
Since the entire world has stopped after the release of Grand Theft Auto IV except for those places where people have better things to do like starve to death, live under an oppressive dictatorship, or be lucky enough to experience both situations (I’m looking at you North Korea), toy news has seemingly ground to a halt. I haven’t seen a whole lot to report on and much worse I’m pretty apathetic, because I’ve got a vacation coming up so toys are the last thing on my mind. What better time then to share a YouTube video of cowboys fighting robots?
Memo to Hollywood, this is the kind of movie that needs to be out, like right now. Screw superhero movies, this is where the future be at. I could imagine an entire line of “Cowboy vs.” movies, like Cowboys vs. Zombies, Cowboys vs. Ninjas, or even Cowboys vs. Hot Cheerleaders (this would be the only one where the cowboys lose and everyone ends up being a winner).
I really can’t understand why there hasn’t been a cowboy vs. robot movie yet. Yes, there is Westworld, but that doesn’t really count because the humans weren’t real cowboys. They were just a bunch of rich guys looking for a good time. That’s not the kind of robot vs. cowboy movie I’m looking for. I’m looking for a real knock down drag out fight featuring ultra cool non-gay cowboy types and some bad ass robots in a world filled with future past tech. Bring Rutger Hauer out of retirement and dig up Yule Brenner, we’ve got a summer blockbuster on our hands, people.
Attention Stumblers: Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to give me thumbs up if you liked the post.

All guns should quack when they’re empty. Just like all computers should flatulate when they freeze.
