THE DUDE WILL HUNT THE DEAD

Was curious before but if Bridges is in it its a must see for me. The guy seems to do no wrong these days.

Jeff Bridges as an undead gunslinger fighting evil? Various combinations of vaguely erotic expletives and superatives must be used to describe how I feel about this.

I'm so into this it hurts ...

... but only as long as the support role puts him on screen for the vast majority of the run time. I like Reynolds well enough, but if he's in a scene and Jeff ain't I'm going to be distracted by such thoughts as "Where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff where's Jeff."

I also like the idea that the old "old timer gets killed on his last day on duty" chestnut can be subverted to death.

The only thing keeping me from being 100% stoked (I'm at roughly 99%) is a niggling bit of morbid curiousity. Haven't read the original comic, so it might make sense in context, but Zach Galifianakis, grizzled cowboy? WTF? I have to admit, I'd kind of like to see it.

It's been a while since I've read the comic, but I'm pretty sure the cowboy is more the "wild" one than the younger straight man.  Riggs to Reynold's Murtaugh to use the Lethal Weapon vernacular.  Though Reynold's character is more driven by anger than Murtaugh's just trying to get through shit alive.  The cowboy isn't that grizzled however; I didn't get much Unforgiven Eastwood from the character in the comic.

Casting funny man and funny man would have been weird, even if one of them would have been playing it straight.

I wonder how they're going to go with the more odd elements of the story, from the weird designs of the weapons to where the story ultimately goes.  Trying not to spoil here.  

Comic was fun fluff, so this sounds interesting.
