Dear Jon Favreau, I'm Sorry

Since 2005 Jon Favreau has had a pretty good record of films as a director (he's been fairly hit or miss when acting). Even Zathura, which not everyone loved, often comparing it to a poor-man's version of the highly successful Jumanji, was pretty fun. And then anyone who watches movies or television know about the Iron Man movies, which are awesome. But when I saw that he was directing the ridiculous-sounding Cowboys & Aliens I felt like he was banking on his recent success to do something outrageous that most people wouldn't fund with a less promotable director. I mean seriously, it's called Cowboys. . . & ALIENS! How could that possibly make a good movie? Upon first seeing a preview I decided to put that in the same category as Twilight (i.e. movies I won't see even if it means gouging out my eyes to make that happen). Unfortunately, my dad really wanted to see it and he promised to buy me an ICEE and popcorn. I'm poor and that's all it took; yes, I'm a weak, weak person, but you would have done the same in my position.
