Really it's hard to think of movies that wouldn't be improved with the addition of a cowboy

Movies for fun. Some of my favorite movies are ones that could never be 'high concept' or whatever it means when you are trying to make something of greatness or idk intellectual...? Mister Lonely, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call, all fan remakes and original Batman movies (see The Black Bat), Five-O and every thing on Tubi's "Black Independent Cinema" collection, all of Wang Po's movies, anything that isn't quite as genre as B-Movie, but someone's commitment to making the movie they knew was good. I think people call this category "post-irony" where the creator takes something which is not serious very seriously, but only because they love it. Many foreign film industries have a home for these silly ones built into their orthodox canon, Bolly/Nollywood or Taiwanese film, where it's okay to make a movie about Baby Police in a way that is Legit but also Because Movies Are Fun. But in the US no one watches comedy movies because people act like they are in comedies, rather than take the sillyness seriously. Landing jokes versus playing. Campyness rather than drama and bombastic glory. It feels so good to take pleasure in the fearlessness of many "silly" movies daring to tell stories that are neither subtle nor smarter than a good time.

One of the few apps with no ephemeral "story" feature or whatever so you don't need to check it every 24 hours. Cherish this.

It's just like John Swartzwelder said:
"Since writing is very hard and rewriting is comparatively easy and rather fun, I always write my scripts all the way through as fast as I can, the first day, if possible […] Then the next day, when I get up, the script’s been written. It’s lousy, but it’s a script. The hard part is done."
