If anyone asks how good the Liam Neeson rebootquel of The Naked Gun is, you can always tell them it's the fourth best Naked Gun movie.

I want to see both Ti West and Robert Eggers' takes on this, but judging off the trailer, I think West's film might outshine Eggers'. The Tim Burton #Gothic atmosphere shines throughout the trailer. So glad to see Johnny Depp back on the big screen. #FilmSky

Scary Movie 6 feels more like a series of sketches than narrative. It's got the bad plot structure that Trey Parker criticizes: This happens, and then this happens afterwards. Good plot structure is: This happens THEREFORE this happens. #FilmSky

I don't like people generating books with AI, because when I read a book, I want to hear what *you* think, not a machine stealing from actual writers. And if you steal from other writers, I want to hear what *you* stole, not what an algorithm thinks is popular. #bookreaders

CHAPTER ONE
THE LONESOME DEATH OF JODI HAHNEMANN
The year was 1869. Jodi Hahnemann's soft brown skin glistened in the dusk as she was hanging up her laundry to dry. She was wearing a headwrap that covered a moderately sized Afro. The Texas sun blinded her, and when she put her hands over her eyes to shield herself from the unrelenting brightness, and she saw the white man dressed entirely in black holding a black umbrella, riding a Stygian steed towards her home who possessed a foreboding demeanor. He did not show any kind of emotion at all, spreading disquietude. Jodi's three year old daughter, Zora, was playing with a doll in front of her. Jodi urged her to come towards her for protection. Zora's white father, Ringo Hahnemann, stepped out of the house to see what was going on, and his long, dirty blonde hair flowed into the wind as he stepped onto the porch and recognized the man in black as Nolan Mallory. Ringo stepped toward Nolan's Tartarean bronco carefully, as he knew that the man in black was dangerous, and, like a rattlesnake, you would have to tread lightly.

The man in black dismounted, hanging on to his umbrella. Almost his entire body was covered in clothing and his hands were covered in black bandages. He stepped over to the cattle fence to lean his body against it, continuing to hold his umbrella as he said, "You've been busy. The bounty's been fruitful to you as my crops withered. You got hitched."
Ringo nodded, and gestured to his cattle and said, "I also got out of the violence business."
Nolan reached into his coat pocket, pulled out a cigarillo, struck a match to his boot and replied between clenched teeth and puffs of smoke, "I could have had what you had. A beautiful wife, a little shitlet running around my home. I didn't come here to discuss the past. I just came here to grant you a friendly hello." Ringo scoffed, "Nothing friendly could ever come out of your mouth."
"Oh, come on, now, Ringo," Nolan replied. "Is that any way to treat your guest?" "Kindly get the fuck off my property." "Oh, Ringo, when did you turn into such a hothead?" Nolan said, before pulling his Colt on Ringo and cocking the hammer. "I'd like to stay for lunch. Me and my friends." Just then, five haggard white men and a white woman, all dressed in black, riding swarthy stallions, and Ringo recognized all of them. They got off their horses, pointed their guns at Ringo and cocked the hammers.

Nolan urged Ringo forward with his gun in Ringo's back. Jodi saw the armed gang coming towards her and her daughter with guns at her husband's back, and she clutched Zora closer as Nolan came to a stop inches away from Jodi and Ringo's front porch and addressed Jodi, saying as guns were now being held on not only Ringo, but Jodi and Zora as well, "good morning to you, ma'am. The name's Nolan Mallory. That there's David Menard. Next to him is Bill Carson. Next to him is Lucky Dickinson. That blind fucker's Mervyn "Vee" Duncan. The young man next to him is Norman Boyle, and the one-eyed blonde bitch with the rebel flag eyepatch is Mary Hamilton. Your husband rode with us during the war. Except for that little fucker Norman over there. His daddy rode with us. Your husband was gracious enough to let us stay for a lunch engagement." Jodi replied, "I don't usually cook for strangers."
Nolan replied, "Now, now, Mrs. Hahnemann. I'd like for you to cook for us out of the kindness of your heart, not because we're holding guns on y'all. You know, your husband led quite the interesting life." "Did he, now?" Jodi asked, not wanting to hear anything Nolan had to say.
"Oh, yes, Mrs. Hahnemann. Ringo was in the Confederate Army with us, and then he met up with some Yankee boys and decided to go over to fight for them in our uniform.

"Seems like the agendas of our two factions kind of contradict each other, wouldn't you say, Mrs. Hahnemann? One seeking to preserve the Union, the other seeking to turn the American South into it's own country? Now why would Ringo simultaneously fight against the
Confederacy and for the Confederacy? Maybe it's because Ringo never intended to defend the Confederacy at all, because he joined to murder Confederates."
Ringo interjected, "The Confederates attacked the Union first, Nolan." Nolan replied, "The Yankees are occupying our land, and impeding on our rights." "No one has the right to own slaves, Nolan. The Yankees were here long before the Confederates even came into existence. Personally, I recommend peaceful coexistence with the North."
Nolan turned his head over to Jodi and Zora and said to Ringo, "Of course you do, Ringo. You're integrated. You're
practically a Yankee yourself. Even fought for them. Wearing our uniform. But the war's long over, and I had no intention of talking about politics over here in a strictly non-partisan scenario. Let us continue our discussion inside."
The gang followed Nolan, Ringo and Jodi into her home as she urged Zora to go into the house.
