This is a mini-series to be released on 30 Dec 2007. It's from good old Larry McMurtry (Lonesome Dove, etc). Here are a few of the main characters:
Gus McCrae.....Steve Zahn
Woodrow Call...Karl Urban
Inish Scull.......Val Kilmer
Blue Duck........Adam Beach
Buffalo Hump....Wes Studi
...and many, many more! 'Moon has a huge cast. Steve Zahn and Karl Urban are said to work really well together. In fact, Steve Zahn is said to have done an excellent job as Gus McCrae. That's outstanding, considering who he replaced!
I can hardly wait!

| Me neither Obi. Been waiting on this one for ages. They kept changing the date it was to be shown from last Fall originally to last Feb and so on. Not too much longer to wait. When I first heard Steve Zahn would play McCrae though, I was surprised. I will wait to make a final judgement until after I see his performance. Nobody like Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall the originals. Still wish Eric had reprised his role as the "Hump" but we do have yummy Adam Beach as "Blue Duck". Pics from onset are gorgeous. I own all the other DVD's and this one will go with my "collection" when it comes out on DVD as well. I am sure with the great cast it will be brilliant at least I hope so. Can't go too wrong with Larry McMurtry. The book was excellent so I hope they stay true to it and don't leave out the "good parts". |

Hmmm . . . Karl Urban? Let's hope Blackie sees this! 
I think Tatanka Means is also in this one. |

| They are apparently showing this mini-series in 3 parts. Part 1 is December 30th, Part 2 is Tuesday January 1st and Part 3 is Wed January 2nd. Just hope they don't "re-schedule it again". |

| Well I saw the trailer for this earlier on CBS. Apparently it will now air on CBS on Sunday January 13th. It looked really good from the trailer and I have been waiting forever to see this one. The air date keeps being changed so fingers crossed for the 13th. |

I'm watching a commercial for it right now. 
And my mother's all: "Great, more Indians to feed her obsession."
What can I say?  |
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.

| So did anyone watch Comanche Moon last night? I loved it. It's always hard to see other actors fill a role created by someone else, but I thought overall everyone did pretty well. Val Kilmer looks awful! Wes Studi did a great job, I thought (of course). Anyone else see it? |

| Really, already. It was to be released on Feb 26th. I shall have to check out our Wally as not been out in a few days as terrible snowstorms here. Hard to even dig out of the driveway. No school again today. Even Clinton and Obama chickened out because of the weather. Their appearances got cancelled for yesterday. |

I saw it there today as well. Must have released it earlier than was expected. I think I will wait for it to go down in price as it ultimately will. I need it to complete my "collection" as I have all the other DVD's. |
