Went to see \u201cCow\u00adboys & Aliens\u201d<\/em> yes\u00adter\u00adday. For those peo\u00adple still unaware, its based on an inde\u00adpen\u00addent com\u00adic about an alien attack on the Amer\u00adi\u00adca South\u00adwest, prob\u00ada\u00adbly some\u00adtime in the 1870s. These aliens are attack\u00ading the locals, kid\u00adnap\u00adping them for exper\u00adi\u00adments while at the same time min\u00ading gold in the region. Over\u00adall it was a good movie, bet\u00adter than I\u2019ve seen it reviewed, and I enjoyed it. (It was also nice to see that Har\u00adri\u00adson Ford has\u00adn\u2019t lost his touch.)<\/p>\n How\u00adev\u00ader, the rel\u00ade\u00advant area of the movie is only a brief scene, but it also explains a large plot point. When the lead, Jake Lon\u00ader\u00adgan, is dis\u00adcov\u00adered, he has no mem\u00ado\u00adry of him\u00adself, only a pic\u00adture of a woman and a mys\u00adte\u00adri\u00adous met\u00adal bracelet on his left arm. Only when he\u2019s in town is he iden\u00adti\u00adfied as a want\u00aded crim\u00adi\u00adnal. But when he is to be takn away and the aliens attack does the bracelet reveal itself to be an alien weapon, which brings down one of the alien assault ships. How\u00adev\u00ader, the many oth\u00ader ships have already car\u00adried off a num\u00adber of the townsfolk.<\/p>\n Through a num\u00adber of tri\u00adals and dif\u00adfi\u00adcul\u00adties, Jake and the remain\u00ading towns\u00adfolk track the aliens back to their ship and mount a res\u00adcue. Dur\u00ading the res\u00adcue, Jake dis\u00adcov\u00aders the miss\u00ading towns\u00adfolk in a large cham\u00adber, still bound in the alien grap\u00adples, all star\u00ading blankly at the light in the ceil\u00ading. Despite being warned, Jake looks at the light and starts zon\u00ading out, only to awak\u00aden when his com\u00adpan\u00adion shoots the mech\u00ada\u00adnism. As for the oth\u00aders who were under the light for much longer, their mem\u00ado\u00adries are affect\u00aded, caus\u00ading minor to severe mem\u00ado\u00adry loss. (And for at least one indi\u00advid\u00adual, its an improvement.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
