Um, what's going on with the lower sections of this article? I'm removing this stuff for now. Looks like it maybe belongs more at WikiSource than here... --Chinasaur 03:08, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Bounty hunters

I didn't think it was really accurate to call them "'amoral' bounty hunters". After all, when Lance Henriksen shoots the black kid, Conway Twill says "Geez, [Lance], he was just a kid." So he has some sense of morality, at least. Shame that he has to get eaten later on.

  • The only one who can conceivably be called "amoral" is, IMHO, Cole Wilson, because Conway Twill actually does call him that ("he ain't got a f***ing conscience—know what I'm sayin'?"). Notcarlos 16:17, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Plot summary: "takes peyote"

Having seen this movie a few times now, I'm not sure at what point Blake takes peyote, especially given that, when Nobody takes the peyote, he says that it is "not for use, even by William Blake." Lack of food causes Blake's vision quest, not peyote. Notcarlos 16:15, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] A little change made

I changed Blake's job in the Machine town from "book keeper" to acoount manager please change back if Im wrong —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.91.136.5 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] Plot

The page says " formerly a prostitute (not explicitly stated), who is selling paper flowers" but in the movie one man in the bar says "we'z liked you better when you wore a whore" before he pushes her in the mud. Sounds pretty explicitly stated, unless one assumes that the man mistook her for someone else. --Jasonnolan 22:04, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree.
However, the entire plot section needs to be vigorously copyedited and reduced, for proper tone and content. This is an encyclopedia, not a film review/guide. See WikiProject Films/Style guidelines#Article body for a style guide. --Quiddity·(talk) 22:45, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
