Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Wrong, Eagle Cowboy sounds fucking awesome

I agree, but I don't think America can do it right. Just like how a lot of the most iconic westerns were made by Italians. Some American westerns were great like The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, but A Fistful of Dollars and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly are some of the most well known and loved westerns for a reason. The European filmmakers could deal with the conquest of the American west in these films without seeing it through American eyes.

Like I'm down to see an eagle cowboy movie. Add a hissing marsupial and some bioluminescent flies, but if we did it we'd be blinded by ourselves. But I don't have a strong interest in seeing American cowboy films unless they're subversive, because most white American stories about things that are too culturally American are too masturbatory for me
