Isn't the Game Called Cowboys and Indians?

On July 29th, director Jon Favreau (Ironman) will release his newest film Cowboys and Aliens, starring Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford. My first thought when hearing the name of this film is that it is going to be a complete joke. A film, set in the old West, in which cowboys are attacked by aliens with futuristic weaponry? It doesn't seem like it should work. Upon further investigation and research however, this odd movie is turning into something to get excited about. The trailer suggests a number of different mysteries unfolding as the film goes on, one being the alien-like weapon attached to Daniel Craig's arm and the other being Olivia Wilde (House) who seems to have some knowledge of the attacking aliens. Also, any hardcore Indiana Jones fan should be exited to see Harrison Ford fully equipped with revolver, brimmed hat and horse, whether he is playing Henry Jones Jr. or not. Though I am doing it very carefully and very skeptically, I am slowly allow my hopes to raise for this movie. A solid cast, also including Sam Rockwell and Paul Dano, a good director and an plot that seems to be growing in interest create a formula that should produce an interesting film. I will be seeing the film and will certainly blog about it. If you are a skeptic like me, wait for the reviews from professionals and myself before heading the cinema to catch this one.
