"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I began writing a movie script and I have this character called "Cowboy", a wild, though, strong fellow, who owns a cattle ranch, and is fighter pilot.

I just need some inspiration for this guy. Anybody know some good cool movies with PRESENT DAY cowboys in it?

Thanks!

Go rent "8 Seconds"

It's not too old, but a really good movie. True story of a bull rider.

"No Country for Old Men" is not a Western in the strictest sense, but it is an old western storyline set in 1970s Texas. Great movie, especially for a new one, which usually leave much to be desired.

It would give much inspiration for character development and the like.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Padron Reserve maduro in hand while finishing my b
If you remove Renee Zelweggers' entire part in Appaloosa, it's not that bad.

I had the highest hopes for it. Ed Harris Directed, Viggo was magnificent (as always), Lance Henrickson is the motherfuvcker to watch (as always).

But. The picture was a complete disaster.

Ed Harris pining for Zelweggers' cheating/wh0ring arse, even after he catches her playing grab-a-titty with Lance Henrickson, by a creek.

It does, albeit it barely, follow Campbell's - Hero's journey. It's discombobulated and swerves quite a bit, but has a linguistic character trail.

I'm doing a re-write for a potential pilot. The Producers sent it back once saying it's too light on plot. I sent it back telling them I'm the writer. They're my voyeuristic crumbsnatchers, who will take what I send them.

What the fvck? How much plot can you fit in 22.5 minutes? I believe you immediately fall in love, or hate, with the characters. Only then do you care of their trials and terrors.

I know it's outside of your "modern cowboy" theme, but the truth is, cowboys are not modern or ancient. They are timeless.

In that spirit, I also suggest you check out Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Westerns. Clint Eastwood got his start on such classics as Fistful of Dollars,For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. The spaghetti westerns were the best(IMO), and they were nearly always scored by Ennio Morricone, whose compositions are absolutely brilliant.

Of all the spaghettis, Once Upon a Time in the West is my favorite. Though it lacks The Eastwood, you've got Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda, and Morricone's work in this film is the most perfect film score I have ever heard.

Go to youtube and search "You brought two too many" to see the beginning of this movie.

Good point about cowboys being timeless. I'm gonna try to see them all but let's see how that works out.
