The film was also the first Hollywood feature to use computer-generated imagery, which Crichton had created in order to show how the film's villain, a menacing robotic gunslinger played by a black-clad Yul Brynner, saw the world.
|

Initially, I sold the rights to the wrong person—back then I was a bit of a naive gunslinger who had sort of stumbled into this mad vortex of different people having an interest in what I was doing.

The traditional Western action of "Odyssey on Red River" or of Hector and Armistice's daily vault heist in Sweetwater are, in this context, canned narratives, an opportunity for a guest to cosplay a gunslinger without any permanent stakes whatsoever.

The Gunslinger is seeking the Tower — and we get a few glimpses of the tower itself in various stages of disrepair — and though he's not sure what he's going to do when he gets there, he knows his quest requires it.

With the loose-limbed swagger of a gunslinger as he strides confidently down the fairways, Johnson has made the game look remarkably easy on one of the toughest courses in the world, making just one bogey in the first two rounds.
|
|
The implication here is that the film is set after The Dark Tower (the novel): Roland has been sent back to the beginning of his quest, and the events of The Gunslinger will play out in a slightly different way.
|

With the loose-limbed swagger of a gunslinger as he strides confidently down the fairways, Johnson has always made the game look remarkably easy but, until last week, he had been unable to translate that into success at golf's highest level.

It's not a tragedy when Brenner's gunslinger gets struck down, because the film marks him firmly as a robot, one of many that a team of technicians have to scoop up and make whole again for another day at the park.
|
|
This week will offer the first glimpse of him trying to make use of a Dolphins offense loaded with Jarvis Landry, DeVante Parker and Kenny Stills at wide receiver, each of whom can go up and get those gunslinger-style passes.

TMZ Sports spoke with the 1995 Heisman winner about the 4 finalists -- Burrow, Jalen Hurts, Chase Young and Justin Fields -- and while he won't tell us who he voted for, he thinks the Tigers gunslinger will take home the hardware.
|

As he spoke, the rest of the crew was entranced by a particularly graphic video game that Fat Boy was playing on a large-screen TV. His mother winced as a Wild West gunslinger lassoed a man and dragged him to his death.

"Less a war movie than a western — the story of a lone gunslinger facing down his nemesis in a dusty, lawless place," Clint Eastwood's adaptation of Mr. Kyle's memoir "is blunt and effective, though also troubling," A. O. Scott wrote in The Times.
|
|
For Dolores it's a wholesale rejection of her script; as we learned early on this season she's meant to be devoted to Teddy, who himself is the "stalwart gunslinger" that guests must overcome if they want to "have their way with" her.
|
|
In search of answers and options, some observers seem to have settled on an obvious one — remove Anthony from the starting lineup and marginalize the proud gunslinger and 10-time All-Star who is now on the back nine of his N.B.A. career.
|
|
Compact and visceral, the trailer does a great job summing up the core conflict at the film's center: Our hero, the weary, isolated Gunslinger Roland, is Idris Elba, in a part that seems to finally be worthy of his long-delayed mega-star potential.
|
|
It was my favorite moment because the New York Motherfucking Jets had the very next pick and, just like the Giants, they were in desperate need of a quarterback and there just so happened to be a cherubic gunslinger waiting right there for them.

The Public School men's wear show that followed it extended and amplified that impression, riffing on references to '90s club wear: boiler suits and quilted parkas, leather Perfectos with floppy lapels, tunic-type shirts with clear origins in oversize throwback jerseys, flat-brimmed gunslinger hats.
|
|
It was difficult to ignore the patronizing tone of Sturges's tale, in which helpless Mexican villagers in white blouses are saved and blessed by the intervention of American tough guys, so the new version is wise to recruit a Latino gunslinger to the front line.
|
|
On the Syfy horror western "Wynonna Earp," Tim Rozon plays a version of the gunslinger Doc Holliday, a role that requires him to rock an exceptional mustache and dodge long-limbed monsters while negotiating the existential ups and downs of immortality (it's a long story).
|

The fan favorite gunslinger then returned to the cage in December, when he knocked out Matt Brown in a typically exciting fight, and then again in January, when he experienced a career-joggling knockout loss of his own at the hands of current welterweight contender Jorge Masvidal.
|

"Given the huge contribution of Wall Street to the city economy and tax rolls, it makes sense that she would want to be a balanced and thoughtful regulator as opposed to a gunslinger," Kathryn Wylde, president of the Partnership for New York City, said in an interview.

When the role of Roland went to Idris Elba, incensed Stephen King fans complained because King's long been on record as envisioning the Gunslinger, the last remaining member of an order of soldiers who defend Roland's world from darkness, as a Clint Eastwood type — in other words, white.
|
|
His reveal came in a familiar form for fans of the series, which launched with 1982's "The Dark Tower"; the tweet quoted the first line of that first book, referencing the novel's antagonist Randall Flagg (the man in black) and hero, Roland Deschain, the gunslinger in question.

My own "imagined scenarios" involve me trying to get the gun out of its holster and being clocked by a crowbar in the meantime, and until I'm willing to put in the time to be a gunslinger, you and I are safer if I leave my gun locked up.

Based on the timing of the attacks and clues in the computer code, researchers with the firm Symantec believe the Chinese did not steal the code but captured it from an N.S.A. attack on their own computers — like a gunslinger who grabs an enemy's rifle and starts blasting away.

Though taking on polio, poverty, and the rising of the seas might seem more stressful than fighting Steve Jobs, Sony, or the Justice Department's hired legal gunslinger, David Boies, Gates has approached the challenges with a humor and humility you seldom saw when he was speaking for Microsoft.

It's the silenced robots and dead-eyed mannequins that are perhaps the most unsettling, whether it's the bowed clergyman who sorta resembles Tall Man from Phantasm, the grinning gunslinger bellied up to the bar, or the unintentionally sinister little girl in the post office who is the stuff of enduring nightmares.
|

Video: MITCSAIL/YouTube We're using the term "robot" pretty loosely here: made of a common 3D-printed plastic called ABS, with a spring for movement and a simple, commercially available Arduino microcontroller for its brain, this thing isn't exactly The Terminator or a gunslinger out of Westworld (at least not yet).
|
|
Crichton never invited us to think of the androids as anything more than exceptionally lifelike machines: When Yul Brynner's robotic gunslinger shorts out and starts killing the guests in the original film, he's like an early model of Arnold Schwarzenegger in "The Terminator," complete with robot point-of-view shots.
|

Although the movie is never quite sure what it wants to do with Jake's powers, and seems to have no idea whether he's a future gunslinger or not, Taylor pulls off a small miracle, in that he doesn't make you resent that he's the main character of this show instead of Roland.

Set (mostly) in a post-apocalyptic world called Mid-World, the books follow Roland the Gunslinger—the last of an order of gun-toting knights—on a quest to find the titular Dark Tower as he battles dark wizards, sex demons, lobster monsters, a riddle-obsessed monorail, and countless other King creations.
|
|
That's where we see the Main in Black's Force-like powers are on full display, something that's not necessarily in The Gunslinger book — but then, in a time-jumping tale like this one, you can bet the first installment will be borrowing ideas from all across the eight-book saga written over 22 years.

Chaim Gartenberg, The Verge The Mandalorian is largely a blank slate; he's mostly silent, always masked, but very good at what he does: hunting down and sometimes killing bail-jumpers and smugglers for money… Pedro Pascal's Mandalorian is more of a quiet lone gunslinger in the vein of Clint Eastwood, speaking only when he needs to.

On Twitter in April, Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin previewed the capabilities of FEDOR (Final Experimental Demonstration Object Research), an android built by the Russian Foundation for Advanced Research Projects in the Defense Industry -- an agency that's been compared to DARPA in the US. This gunslinger appears to be able to drive cars, lift dumbbells and shoot with deadly accuracy.

Harbaugh has not assured victory this time around — "I made a guarantee a long time ago, and I've learned from that," he said at his introductory news conference in 2014 — but in virtually every other respect, he is the same cocky gunslinger: aiming warning shots on Twitter at rivals; ruffling feathers with his nationwide satellite camps; elevating college football to show business.
|
|
It's also the mystery at the heart of The Dark Tower series; we're told that it's in danger of collapsing, and that main character Roland Deschain (Idris Elba in the films) may be the last thing that stands in the way of this; but we don't know exactly what's causing the collapse, or how the Gunslinger plans to stop it.

Armie Hammer has played a Russian spy (The Man From UNCLE); a beloved cowboy with a questionable sidekick (The Lone Ranger); a hirsute, bearded gunslinger (Free Fire); a tender and tall lover (Call Me By Your Name); a stylish cheater (Nocturnal Animal); a coke-snorting, sarong-wearing billionaire (Sorry To Bother You); and two 6'5, 220lb-twins (The Social Network).

" Then the Times reported last month that the theft wasn't an inside job so much as a self-inflicted wound: A cyberfirm's postmortem report determined that before hackers published the NSA's most valuable malicious code online, they had been captured by Chinese intelligence operatives "from an NSA attack on their own computers—like a gunslinger who grabs an enemy's rifle and starts blasting away.

Its Academy Award-nominated title song, with sweeping Hollywood grandiosity, an Ennio Morricone-esque choral arrangement and bizarre whip-crack sound effects, mirrors the exaggerated tone of the rest of film, which stars Gene Wilder as a down-and-out ex-gunslinger, Cleavon Little as an African-American sheriff in a town full of bigoted dim-wits, and Madeline Kahn as a dancer with a speech impediment.
|

That didn't stop Twitter from collectively crediting the coin toss for the Pats' third straight Super Bowl berth, fourth in five years, and fifth in eight: Mahomes had to watch helplessly from the sideline as his defense gave up its fifth touchdown of the game—just as the gunslinger he's been compared to, Brett Favre, had to watch his special teams and defense melt down in the 2009 NFC Championship game, which prompted the change to the current overtime format.

"There was a period of time when Esquire had a real literary charisma, and there was a culture that responded to it," said Mr. Fielden, 48, sounding nostalgic as he reclined in a banquette, wearing a steel-bluel Ferragamo suit and sporting what may be the best head of male hair in the magazine industry, a cascade of artfully coifed curls that calls to mind both the belletrist whimsy of Oscar Wilde and the gunslinger gusto of Wild Bill Hickok.
