New Old West	comment	The Western genre is a rich one, but has been decidedly played out over the years, to the point where it's hard to do a Western series without looking like you're ripping off a rip-off. The easiest way to revitalize the genre is to set it in the future, when man's expansion onto other planets has created a similar state of lawlessness and grit in the off-world colonies in a distant galaxy—hence the Space Western, where the sheriff has a laser blaster. A less frequent but still popular choice is the New Old West, in which Western traditions and tropes are shifted forward a hundred or so years into the modern day. Now the bandits drive pick-up trucks or ride motorcycles, the outlaws hole up in grungy No Tell Motels at highway rest stops, the sheriff has a modern handgun and rifle (possibly a revolver and lever-action rifle if the creators want to contrast, in a Good Guns, Bad Guns way, against crooks' submachine guns and assault rifles), and the great plains of America are surrounded on all sides by airports, highways, and cities. Of course, this means that it's harder to do stories about outlaws because advances in technology mean that it's much easier for law enforcement agents to pursue and capture criminals. As a result, many New Old West stories are about the perceived loss of freedom in America now that such days are gone. There's an overlap with the Twilight of the Old West trope if the New Old West story is set in the early part of the 20th century and is about elements of the Wild West fading away. If there is a fantasy or supernatural element to the story, expect an actual cowboy, or some other person from the actual Old West, to somehow make an appearance. Because of its proximity to Texas, the overwhelming power and presence of drug cartels, and the numerous poor desert towns that any criminal can hide in and find an Abandoned Warehouse or scrapyard to run an illegal operation in, a good number of New Old West stories take place South of the Border in northern Mexico. California, Arizona, New Mexico, and — of course — Texas itself are also popular locations for a modern Western story for the same reasons as El Norte. Not to be confused with Cowboy Cop, although some overlap is possible.

Half of the game is set in high-tech futuristic Cyberpunk metropolises ruled over by the various Mega Corps or until-recently peaceful monastery worlds. The other half takes place in more lawless Western-style wilderness, including the scrapyard desert world of Pandora and the bandit-riddled swamps of Eden-6, which is ruled over by the heavily Western-themed Jakobs Corporation.

Joel is a quick draw outlaw making his way across the vast, unsettled interior of the US. Heâ€™s also the character archetype of the typical western protagonist: a gruff, badass man whoâ€™s spent his whole life fighting and being put through the ringer. The premise of said grizzled old man helping a Little Miss Badass is also evocative of the classic western, True Grit.

New Old West / int_331e008	comment	Borderlands counts as this, since it's a Space Western in which you cannot escape the planet Pandora. While Pandora is not a Single-Biome Planet, the parts you can reach (those not fenced off by the Atlas Corporation) are mostly desert and badlands. Oh, and Revolvers and Sniper Rifles are noticeably more effective than assault rifles and rocket launchers. Also, the few established towns are subject to frequent raids by local bandits. Guns by the Jakobs corporation (particularly in the second game) are specifically meant to invoke this as most of them are modeled after weapons of Westerns.

The missions in the area are distinctly western-themed, including standbys like a train robbery, robbing a bank, and having a gunfight with a corrupt Sheriff, who is also the girlfriend of the Big Bad. Jakobs Revolvers and Sniper Rifles have also become some of the most popular weapons with the fanbase, as they retain their high damage and reliablity from the first game, along with a new attribute-they now fire as fast as you can click (for most guns) or have an enormous critical damage boost (for a sniper rifle).

New Old West / int_41b0198a	comment	Though The Dresden Files was originally written as Noir Detective/Urban Fantasy fusion set in the present, before diversifying into a far more complex world full of supernatural politics, it arguably owes most to this, particularly in the early books, with Dresden hunting down monsters that are beyond the reach of mortal police forces. He lampshades this in book 9, White Night, when he says that he's playing 'supernatural sheriff of Chicago' and should therefore get spurs and a ten gallon hat. He even rocks a leather duster (formerly a canvas duster), which is admittedly enchanted, that looks like it belongs on the set of El Dorado. His signature weapon, a .44 Magnum Revolver (a Dirty Harry Special), which succeeded his .357 Chief's Special, sort of fits too.

New Old West / int_59da62aa	comment	Fallout: New Vegas (which uses many concept and crew members from the aforementioned Van Buren concept) clearly evokes this trope up and down. Two hundred and two years after the nuclear war, the American Southwest starts to look less like an irradiated wasteland and more like it has returned to late 19th century with heaps of schizotech. People finally start producing their own technology alongside with scavenging the ruins. As a result, laser pistols run side-by-side with .44 revolvers, while cowboy hats and dusters are worn next to Powered Armor; the driving theme is no longer survival on the ruins of civilization but rather the reconquest of the frontier and the conflict between civilization and lawlessness. There's even a Perk called "Cowboy" that grants extra damage for "old fashion" weapons like revolvers or lever-action longarms. Also like the canceled Van Buren, New Vegas canonizes that the NCR has been restoring the region's railways with several locomotives for the "Barstow Express" scattered throughout the game.

The show's opening credits juxtapose traditional Wild West imagery of horses, bison, tipis, open plains, and rugged mountains with strip mines, dump trucks, oil derricks, refineries, and wind turbines, all drawn in the same sepia tones evocative of older Westerns as if to highlight the continuity between the land's history and its present.

New Old West / int_73b74949	comment	Borderlands: Borderlands counts as this, since it's a Space Western in which you cannot escape the planet Pandora. While Pandora is not a Single-Biome Planet, the parts you can reach (those not fenced off by the Atlas Corporation) are mostly desert and badlands. Oh, and Revolvers and Sniper Rifles are noticeably more effective than assault rifles and rocket launchers. Also, the few established towns are subject to frequent raids by local bandits. Guns by the Jakobs corporation (particularly in the second game) are specifically meant to invoke this as most of them are modeled after weapons of Westerns. Borderlands 2 has a much wider series of settings... including Lynchwood, a town specifically designed to evoke this. The missions in the area are distinctly western-themed, including standbys like a train robbery, robbing a bank, and having a gunfight with a corrupt Sheriff, who is also the girlfriend of the Big Bad. Jakobs Revolvers and Sniper Rifles have also become some of the most popular weapons with the fanbase, as they retain their high damage and reliablity from the first game, along with a new attribute-they now fire as fast as you can click (for most guns) or have an enormous critical damage boost (for a sniper rifle). In Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel!, you can play as Nisha, the Sheriff of Lynchwood, and unsurprisingly, her kit is focused heavily on dual-wielding pistols, with her action skill giving her instant rapid-fire auto-aim and boosted damage. Borderlands 3 plays around with this. Half of the game is set in high-tech futuristic Cyberpunk metropolises ruled over by the various Mega Corps or until-recently peaceful monastery worlds. The other half takes place in more lawless Western-style wilderness, including the scrapyard desert world of Pandora and the bandit-riddled swamps of Eden-6, which is ruled over by the heavily Western-themed Jakobs Corporation.

New Old West / int_76b8cb10	comment	Fallout has several aspects of this despite (or perhaps because of) being a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Especially the second game, in which the New California Republic was spreading its influence north and east resulting in several "frontier towns" (although many did exist before the NCR). This would have been explored further in the cancelled Van Buren version of Fallout 3 which had a major sub-plot about the NCR establishing railways. There's a good reason for it: the Fallout universe never left the 1950s USA aesthetic behind, and 1950s America adored cowboys. Fallout: New Vegas (which uses many concept and crew members from the aforementioned Van Buren concept) clearly evokes this trope up and down. Two hundred and two years after the nuclear war, the American Southwest starts to look less like an irradiated wasteland and more like it has returned to late 19th century with heaps of schizotech. People finally start producing their own technology alongside with scavenging the ruins. As a result, laser pistols run side-by-side with .44 revolvers, while cowboy hats and dusters are worn next to Powered Armor; the driving theme is no longer survival on the ruins of civilization but rather the reconquest of the frontier and the conflict between civilization and lawlessness. There's even a Perk called "Cowboy" that grants extra damage for "old fashion" weapons like revolvers or lever-action longarms. Also like the canceled Van Buren, New Vegas canonizes that the NCR has been restoring the region's railways with several locomotives for the "Barstow Express" scattered throughout the game. The FNV Game Mod The Someguy Series, especially its two sub mods, New Vegas Bounties and Russell add in bounty hunters, wanted posters, conflicts between natives and pioneers in the new frontier, outlaws and bandits combined with all the typical gizmos you've come to expect from a Fallout setting.

The present-day segments with Saul in hiding as a wanted fugitive are more in the style of neo-noir, especially because of the black-and-white visuals.

New Old West / int_85211f38	comment	Bearcats! — 1971 TV series (13 episodes plus 2-hour pilot film Powderkeg), a Western set in the year 1914. The heroes were freelance adventurers who drove around in a Stutz Bearcat sports car instead of riding horses. The 20th-century setting allowed the writers to add modern elements such as the aforementioned Bearcat, oil companies, Imperial German spies and World War I, Mexican revolutionaries, and belt-fed machine guns. Ended up as something of an Anachronism Stew anyway because they often skimped on research — one episode featured a Renault FT-18 tank (the tank was not invented until 1915), another a Curtiss JN-4 biplane (first flight 1915) in Mexican Air Force colors (Curtiss "Jennies" were exported only to Britain). The show's continuity was a little soft from week to week, particularly with regard to those Mexican revolutionaries—one week, our heroes were working with the Mexican government against the rebels, the next week they were siding with the rebels. Despite all that, was quite fun to watch.

New Old West / int_a03824e8	comment	The DCU: Cinnamon: El Ciclo was an updating of a female Bounty Hunter from the 1970s book Weird Western Tales to the present day, where she was a security operative for hire. In the miniseries, she tangles with people smugglers (a.k.a. 'coyotes') along the US/Mexico border. Several other DC Western characters have modern-day counterparts, although how Western their stories are varies considerably. The Rafael Sandoval version of El Diablo, who had his own short-lived title in the early 1990s, patrolled a modern-day border town while confronting issues that face Mexican-Americans. The Hitman (1993) annual is a modern-day Western, right down to the coffin full of money. Several other DC Comics Annuals that year were modern westerns (the "theme" being pulp fiction genres). These included Superman as the Mysterious Stranger flying into town, Impulse teaming with the original Vigilante (now running a dude ranch), and Robin facing down the modern-day Trigger Twins alongside the modern-day Pow-Wow Smith and Nighthawk. Parodied in a Lobo Elseworld annual in which Lobo takes the role of various Western characters (Geroni-bo, The Main Man With No Name, Anne Bo-kley, etc). The final story is about "The Last Despera-bo"... who promptly gets hit by a truck. The Golden Age DC Comics characters Pow-Wow Smith (Native American sheriff) and Vigilante (singing cowboy) were 1940s Western characters, although sometimes DC forgot and put them in the real Old West. This was eventually explained as Pow-Wow having an Identical Grandfather and Vigilante getting Trapped in the Past during an adventure with the Seven Soldiers of Victory.

The protagonist, Jack Burns (Kirk Douglas), is an itinerant ranch hand who still rides everywhere on horseback and sleeps wherever he ends up in the evening; he refuses to join modern society, claiming that he resents its emphasis on telling people where they can or can't go and what they can or can't do. His Old West lifestyle, however, has been growing increasingly difficult to maintain.

As a result, everything is a retro-futuristic version of the old west; colonies are stuck between surviving in a dog-eat-dog world or serving the whims of the warring megacorporations.

The protagonists OJ and Emerald own a ranch where they train horses for Hollywood productions, specifically noting the fact that the jockey featured in the first motion picture ever made, The Horse in Motion, was their great-great-great-grandfather, and the Former Child Star Ricky "Jupiter" Park now runs a Wild West-themed amusement park.

The fourth film, a prequel to the series, was a straight Western set in the 1880s and had to change little about the series formula. Later films, though, moved away from this setting, with the fifth being set in South Africa, the sixth in northern Canada, and the seventh in Thailand.

New Old West / int_e365af07	comment	A weird case is the Dino Attack RPG, in that this and the more traditional Wild West seem to be happening at the same time note If this sounds confusing, keep in mind this is one of the saner things that go on. This is a world where most of it is at a technology level more or less the same as the present day, but there's another spot where life still live as in the Middle Ages complete with castles and knights, a cove which is still home to 18th century-style pirates, and some people of the same species have developed intergalactic travel and made contact with extra-terrestrial civilizations. On the one hand, we have Engineer who has a clear Western vibe but is also quite skilled with handling modern technology. On the other hand, Clint Wayne and Angel Eyes are still very much the sort of old-fashioned gunslingers you'd see in a Sergio Leone Western. The town of El Paso that we see also resembles the more classical Wild West, even going as far as to have the majority of the population being misogynistic bigots, drunkards, bandits, or otherwise unlikeable outside of those in the Dino Attack Team (though the primitive nature of the town could be justified by the fact that it was quickly built up after the main Western town was destroyed by a mutant dinosaur apocalypse).

New Old West / int_f0c816fb	comment	Breaking Bad is a neo-noir/neo-western crime drama set in modern New Mexico of the 21st century. It's a story of power, corruption, betrayal and revenge with showdowns, stalemates and gunfights set in the backdrop of Albuquerque's streets, nearby deserts and Indian reservations. There's even a train heist featured at one point. The criminals in the show are essentially Western outlaws reimagined as drug-trafficking gangsters, who utilize modern technology, vehicles and weapons. Even the show's theme music deliberately invokes this, with a twanging guitar riff that's pretty obviously meant to channel a classic Western theme. The prequel series Better Call Saul also delves into neo-western territory at times, especially whenever the criminal underworld subplots involving Gus, Mike, Nacho, and The Cartel come into play; though it's less apparent this time around, because the main protagonist (Saul) isn't really a violent outlaw (though he's still a greedy criminal in his own right). The present-day segments with Saul in hiding as a wanted fugitive are more in the style of neo-noir, especially because of the black-and-white visuals. Lampshaded in the sequel movie El Camino, when Jesse challenged the film's antagonist to a pistol duel (his opponent even asks if he means having a duel just like in "the Wild West"). Sure enough, we get to see a tense showdown leading straight to a shootout, with Jesse being quicker on the draw.

New Old West / int_fa368ad1	comment	Dead Man's Shoes is a rare British example, taking Western themes and setting them in Matlock.

New Old West / int_fb2991d8	comment	Justified is set in the present day, the main character will never be seen without his cowboy hat, and the show features many quick-draw gunfights. However, it also draws attention to how weird this trope can look to bystanders, with its protagonist being given endless amounts of crap both for his hat and for his Cowboy Cop tendencies.

New Old West / int_fcacaa36	comment	The Man in the High Castle: The Neutral Zone has a distinct Wild West feel to it despite existing within an alternate 1960s world dominated by the victorious Axis Powers, being a near-lawless frontier setting roamed by bounty hunters, gangs of outlaws (trading in horses for motorcycles), grifters, and small-town settlers. Several of the main characters who visit it spend much of their time in season 3 hanging out in a saloon to boot.
