comment |
A Million Ways to Die in the West is the second full-length theatrical comedy film from Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, after Ted.The film takes place in Arizona, 1882, where literally Anyone Can Die from anything (even by a splinter). This tale of the west is about Albert (played by MacFarlane himself), a sheep herder whose girlfriend (Amanda Seyfried) left him after he chickens out of a duel, but when notorious outlaw (Liam Neeson) arrives in town looking for trouble, the outlaw's runaway wife (Charlize Theron) teaches Albert how to shoot and prove he's got what it takes. The film also stars Sarah Silverman, Giovanni Ribisi, and Neil Patrick Harris.The film was produced by Media Rights Capital, Fuzzy Door Productions (the same production company behind MacFarlane's animated shows), and Bluegrass Films, and released by Universal Pictures on May 30, 2014. A tie-in novel written by MacFarlane is now available. |

Old Man Marrying a Child |
| | A Million Ways to Die in the West / int_117c6f30 |
comment |
Old Man Marrying a Child: Anna says she was 9 when she married Clinch and had sex with him within a year. It's not stated how much older Clinch is than her, but the fact that he was already an accomplished murderer at the time, plus Albert's Squicked reaction at the whole thing, implies he was already an adult. Considering the actors' ages (Theron is 39, Neeson is 62), this is almost definitely the case. |

The Cameo |
| | A Million Ways to Die in the West / int_1b65dfad |
comment |
The Cameo: Doc Brown is found in a barn where he hides the DeLorean from Albert. Also keep a look out for Bill Maher, Ewan McGregor, Ryan Reynolds, Patrick Stewart (as the voice of a sheep), Gilbert Gottfried as an Abraham Lincoln impersonator, and Jamie Foxx as Django. Wes Studi appears as a Native American because of course he does. Alex Borstein also shows up as the extremely confused madame of the local whorehouse, but most won't recognize her because she isn't speaking like Lois Griffin. |

Anachronism Stew: Basically, what we have here are stereotypically feckless Gen-X Man Children whining about their everyday problems...in the Old West! And in a lesser example, the shooting gallery at the fair has runaway slaves as targets, in a movie that takes place after the American Civil War. |

Guile Hero: Albert Stark may be a lousy shot, but he is clever enough to reason with people to try and settle any disagreements as well. When it's clear that Clinch can't be reasoned with, he fills a hollow bullet with rattlesnake venom, knowing that while he may not be able to fatally shoot Clinch Leatherwood in a duel, he can get close enough to wound him and stall for time long enough for the poison to take effect. |

Death by Adaptation: Albert's mother, who is killed early on in the novel by a random cougar attack. As one passing mention is made of her grave, she's also implied to have been killed in the film, but this is never elaborated upon. However, in the unrated version, it's revealed that she died from a splinter, and her funeral is shown. |

And then the film actually cuts to the hat ITSELF, showing us how it's filled with... Later, as Albert is hiding from Clinch, a sheep pees on him. The sheep's wiener is shown in all its "glory". |

Epic Fail |
| | A Million Ways to Die in the West / int_b4eff8a8 |
comment |
Epic Fail: Albert tries shooting at a row of bottles to practice shooting, but he can't seem to knock them down even at point-blank range. Albert is such a terrible shepherd that one of the sheep somehow keeps getting on the roof. He later claims that one of them got into the brothel and earned $20. |

From Louise's perspective, hard working but poor farmer Albert is a Betty to the dapper, moneyed Foy's Veronica. Though this could be seen as a classic Rich Suitor, Poor Suitor situation too. |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? |
| | A Million Ways to Die in the West / int_bce16d24 |
comment |
Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Obviously, after Anna bashed Clinch's head with a rock to knock him out, she could have easily taken it further and killed him while he was unconscious, thereby avoiding the whole climax (although it's implied earlier that Anna just doesn't have it in her to kill). |

Shout-Out: The theme to Blazing Saddles is teased during the credits. The Pastor's says that after killing someone in a duel, he killed his son because because he was afriad that the son would grow up and kill him out of revenge. The aforementioned Cameo by Doctor Brown and his time travelling De Lorean. The "Muslim Death Chant" is the vocalization from Baltimora's ''Tarzan Boy", specifically the drawn-out "whoa!". Django shows up in The Stinger. |

Indecisive Parody: This review paints the film as such—there are moments that seem more appropriate for a legitimately dramatic Western, and others (especially the Vulgar Humor) that scream "parody". At times, the two elements seem a bit incompatible. |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Albert points out that the Mayor has been lying dead in the middle of the town for several days and no one is doing anything about it, be it investigate the cause of death, bury him, or appoint a replacement. This also applies, much less pointedly, to the many deaths that occur throughout the film, with people staring in horror/interest for a few seconds and then carrying on like any other day. |

Amusingly Awful Aim: Stark is so bad at shooting that he is unable to hit a beer bottle even when standing close enough to just swat it off the fence in frustration after wasting all of his ammo. He eventually becomes just good enough at the climax to hit Clinch Leatherwood (or being more specific, just nick him in the arm), but knowing that he'll never be any good he decided to lace his bullets with rattlesnake venom. |

Brick Joke |
| | A Million Ways to Die in the West / int_fe0330fb |
comment |
Brick Joke: While listing off his complaints about the West, Albert hypothesizes that doctors will treat the wound on his face by having a blue jay peck it. During a montage significantly later in the film, Albert's hypothesis is proven to be true (to pick the glass out). When Albert shows Edward and Ruth the corpse of the mayor on the street, wolves drag him off. The next day, when Anna and Albert meet and she plays fetch with Plugger, he retrieves the chewed off leg of the Mayor. Even in the Wild West, Doc Brown claims the Delorean is a weather experiment... While at the fair, Albert remark that "People die at the fair." The shooting gallery Albert and Anna go to has a very offensive theme (directed towards blacks). At the end of that fair scene, a drink salesman gets gored by a bull, causing Albert and Anna to bleakly remark once again that "People die at the fair." The very last scene of the movie has Jamie Foxx reprising his role as Django shooting the proprietor running the shooting gallery, remarking "People die at the fair." before cutting to the credits. |

Talking Is a Free Action: Averted and parodied; Albert manages to poison Clinch without him realizing, then keeps talking to distract Clinch long enough for the poison to take effect. Once Clinch collapses, Albert explains what he did, only to be informed that Clinch died from the venom before he had a chance to hear the explanation. Albert is clearly disappointed. |

Pet the Dog: Louise proves that, while she may be somewhat smug and prefer money to integrity, she's not exactly bad when she tries her best to talk Foy out of killing Albert in the duel even though Albert himself was the challenger. Also a more literal 'pet the dog' moment when Anna adopts the dead prospector's dog in the beginning. |
