Like the "Lightyear" movie, this animated movie will be centered around the cowboy himself that the pull-string doll was based on. I'm not sure if it should take place during the start of Rockefeller's oil business, the Great Depression, or the Prohibition Era. A man from New York City named Woodrow Pride (nicknamed "Woody") is searching for a job and he steps off a train to an old Western town whose sheriff died. He knows what matters most but sometimes he is treated like a doormat and sometimes he blames himself for mistakes. After stopping a bar fight with One-Eyed Bart, one of the most feared bandits in the West, and rescuing the mayor from a dangerous animal (either a rattlesnake or a wolf) he officially vows to keep the town protected and restored as Sheriff Woody. After hearing that One-Eyed Bart and his wife, One-Eyed Betty, plans to pull off a train heist like no other for their boss (name to be determined), Woody sets up a posse (or "roundup gang") to catch the bandits. The primary members of the roundup gang are: Jessie the Yodelin' Cowgirl (a former TV star turned saloon singer who loves critters), Stinky Pete (an eccentric prospector obsessed with finding gold), and of course, his trusty steed Bullseye. There will be guns duels, dynamite, train chases, and songs. It'll be an homage to Westerns like the "Man with No Name" Trilogy, "Unforgiven," "Tombstone," "The Magnificent Seven," "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," "Bonnie and Clyde," and "Rango."
