Deputy Sherrif of Tombstone, Wyatt Earp is sitting in the Saloon Number 10.  Kurt Russel cameo as Artie, says "that's a rotten idea" to Jane's idea of a tombstone (heh) for Wild Bill Hickock. Comfortador posted:Imdb names that as a different actor, whats your source? Ah drat. It does look a bit like him, but Kurt is a lot older. welp. drunkill fucked around with this message at 18:27 on Jun 1, 2019 |

I thought that was Dillahunt for a split second when they focused on him. That's just as awesome if it's true.

it was the little things, like bullock being too old to properly kick an rear end anymore and getting winded haflway through the beating.

i like that in his age and ease in temperament Bullock has basically just aged into being Raylan Givens. lot of those little swaying and swaggering mannerisms when he’s cool and relaxed that Bullock never had, because he was never relaxed, always coiled up and practically shaking with barely repressed rage and discomfort Timothy Olyphant was loving born to play troubled Old West lawmen also that movie was loving perfect, not a wrong note anywhere and completely satisfying

That was perfect and a great send off to an amazing show. A shame we couldn't have watched several more seasons leading up to that, but it was still great. I know some people were hoping this would be a backdoor pilot, but these people are way too old to keep on keepin on in this kind of show. I kind of wish more shows got this kind of several years later treatment that's actually several years later, and not just an age makeup gimmicked last episode. I love the way they were able to convey the feeling of helplessness when Hearst was around. It's terrifying to be in a situation where you're being wronged but you can't do anything to the person wronging you. That street beating was great.

He absolutely kills it in that role as well. Then again, realtors are basically the modern day version of the Old West sheriffs. Like almost indistinguishable from each other.

That impotence combined with the street beating felt like more poetic justice towards Hearst than I ever hoped the show would provide. And given that the show deviates from history in the fates of several real figures, I don’t have any problem figuring that maybe in Deadwoodworld Hearst actually really did get held accountable one way or another

This was really more of a cast reunion and show send off in the wrap party sense than an addition to the deadwood story. I guess a lot of people enjoy that kind of thing and that's cool. I had somehow gotten the idea that there would be more impetus so I felt a little disappointed TBH. it was kind of like a theme park ride of deadwood...

Garret Dillahunt in his 3rd Deadwood role, rocking an awesome and hilariously fake-looking beard that I have to believe is a wink at the audience: And that was indeed Con Stapleton officiating the wedding:  They really did get back almost everyone who wasn't either dead IRL or killed off on the show. Exception being Jack Langrishe (Brian Cox) and his troupe but I don't know they ever really fit in the show anyway. Silas Adams was probably the biggest series regular (who was still alive at the end of S3) I missed, but that's because Titus Welliver was filming the new season of Bosch (which is excellent, btw, it's on Amazon).

I read that Larry Cedars (Leon the opium addict) had a cameo as well, but heck if I know which minor townsperson he played. I felt like such a dork because I got excited at seeing minor characters like Aunt Lou popping back up; particularly Tom Nuttall, since articles I read kept mentioning the real atom wasn't in Deadwood at the time frame the movie happens, so he wouldn't be there. Overall, I liked it. (Except for Harry, you drat rat!). I would have liked more Dan and Johnny, but I'll take what I can get. And the ending, between Fields talking to Bullock about how Charlie looked when he last saw him and what the Bible said about purpose; and then Jewel and Trixie taking care of Al, I was seriously a little emotional; the acting was fantastic. EB, as usual had the standout moment when he has to use the the telephone. 'My word, a voice! Hello in there!'

He was a US marshal actually, both in the show and real life. It’s confusing but marshal is used in some towns and counties instead of sheriff. In this case though, Seth was a full blown law enforcement officer and his authority dwarfed the other lawmen.

though to be fair his authority would have dwarfed theirs even if he was only sheriff, being that they were literally out of their jurisdiction and effectively working as hired muscle

That was so good!   on tearing up a bit for Waltzing Matilda...such a great send off.This was so satisfying, it felt like a condensed season with the story beats, but the progressions still felt natural and not rushed (for a film). They did an amazing job of adapting the long-form to a different length: this didn't feel like a two-parter, but like a proper ~movie~. That said, it makes me a little sad for what could have been. Letting these plots and beats spread out over ten or thirteen episodes would have been amazing.  Final Thought:  we couldn't just get the train from Deadwood for one scene?

This was an incredibly warm and beautiful send off for the show, and sits up there with the Twin Peaks return as one of the most successful series revivals (see The X-Files for the other end of the spectrum). That said, I couldn't help but wish we'd been able to get (at least) a 4-part mini series that would have allowed the plot to unfold at a more leisurely (Deadwoody) pace and, more importantly, for every character to get a proper send off. Still, it's ridiculous that we got even this much, and I will be thanking the antler god for all time for this gift.

I feel like the guy who screams "I hope you die in the street just like my dad" was that guy who played like 2 or 3 different characters in OG deadwood who all died. EFB I love how the entire cast takes turns dunking on Hearst the entire movie, even Farnum. runaway dog fucked around with this message at 08:53 on Jun 2, 2019 |

King Vidiot posted:Nothing about George Hearst's depiction in Deadwood is true. Even my cursory half-assed research showed that he was involved in at least a couple of antitrust campaigns, and there's nothing about him killing union organizers. It's maybe fair to say he wasn't the quintessential robber baron he is on the show, but you don't really have a trajectory like George Hearst's by staying clean now, let alone in the 19th century. The man's political (/business) fortunes were tied up with the Central Pacific Railroad, only turning ostensibly anti-monopoly when they dropped him for another candidate. He was also aligned with the pro-Southern wing of the Democrats, and his time in the California state legislature was largely distinguished by being the sole vote against ratifying the Thirteenth Amendment. From the Wikipedia page on the Homestake Mine: "Hearst consolidated and enlarged the Homestake property by fair and foul means. He bought out some adjacent claims, and secured others in the courts. A Hearst employee killed a man who refused to sell his claim, but was acquitted in court after all the witnesses disappeared. Hearst purchased newspapers in Deadwood to influence public opinion. An opposing newspaper editor was physically attacked on a Deadwood street. Hearst realized that he might be on the receiving end of violence, and wrote a letter to his partners asking them to provide for his family should he be murdered. But within three years, Hearst had established the mine and acquired significant claims; he walked out alive, and very rich." However it is worth saying that Joseph Pulitzer is at least as responsible for the rise of yellow journalism as William Randolph, and the existence of the Pulitzer Prize is a testament to how far these men would go to whitewash their own legacy.

The movie was amazing and I'm so glad it exists. One of the two Hearst guys pull off the murder made me pause and say "What the gently caress.. Patrick Swayze is dead!" Turns out, to my surprise, that Patrick Swayze has a brother named Don that when you put him in makeup and facial hair looks crazy close to how his brother looked right before he got really sick. That was a weird discovery. Orange Carlisle fucked around with this message at 15:34 on Jun 2, 2019 |

Phenotype posted:How did Alma outbid George Hearst? I didn't think she was anywhere near Hearst rich. She had the gold claim (before selling it off) and the bank during the show's initial run, so I'm guessing when she left Deadwood she used her business acumen to accrue more wealth for a decade. I think Charlie mentioned something about what she'd been up to when she first arrived. As soon as that scene started and you saw Seth and others fruitlessly trying to outbid him, I was like 'Ohhhhhh, Alma's gonna outbid him' and was not disappointed.

Yeah, I mean she had a reputation as a New York rich girl 10 years prior, before she had the gold claim and the bank and invested that money etc. I was under the impression that Alma was very wealthy.
