Saddle up and keep your trigger fingers loose—Ken and Andy are riding back into the wild, weird West! This week on Pass, Pirate, Pay, the fellas tackle the dusty trail of The Cowboys (1972), where John Wayne herds up some preteen ranch hands; the grisly horror-western Bone Tomahawk, where things get downright cannibalistic; and the brand-new frontier slow-burn Rust (2025), a film with a production saga nearly as dramatic as its plot. Expect shootouts, side-eyes, and saddle sores as we decide: is it worth your gold, or should you just rustle up a torrent?

🎮 A Minecraft Movie – The blocky video game behemoth finally hits the big screen. But does it mine for cinematic gold or fall into a pit of pixels?

Three movies. Zero connection. One question: Pass, Pirate, or Pay?
