Try the 1957 version of 3:10 - a much more plausible and satisfying conclusion. Not as much flash as the newer one, but a better movie all around, IMO.....

Yeah, I liked him a lot in 3:10 TO YUMA. That whole gang was an embarrassment of riches. Not only did you have Alan, you had Christian Bale, Russell Crowe (fightin' round the woild), Peter Fonda and the guy that played Sam Phillips to a T in WALK THE LINE. And the kid wasn't too bad as well.

I never really thought of Alan as a "FIREFLY actor". By that, I mean he been in so many other things and is such a chameleon that he's not tied down to one thing. To me, he was "an actor who was in FIREFLY".

I absolutely loved him in KNOCKED UP. Him and the "tighten" hand gesture did it for me. And in the deleted scenes, he and Kristen Wiig have another scene where Alan asks Kristen "Are we still pretending that we don't know she's pregnant?"

I concur. For all the hype I heard about this being the best western done in years, I then figured it was the ONLY western done in years.

Rent "Open Range" and "Missing".

Westerns are still very much alive at the movie theaters. These two are very recent and great films.

I also prefer the original "3:10 to Yuma" over this remake. A lot less flash and more drama. Some people don't like flash.

I watched the film with the misses the other week, she said the same thing, she also thinks that one of the characters acts just like Jayne...
