Gary Larson's love of film can only be inferred from his work, The Far Side; we assume he loved Westerns, but he could very well have been into the literary works of Zane Grey and Louis L'Amour. Larson was always a very private individual, and beyond his love of conservation and animals, he remained a bit of a cultural enigma throughout his career. While riffing on movies was not his bread and butter like dinosaurs, cows, or nerds, when he did approach the subject, he brought his eccentric and absurd twist to it. As a cinema fan first, I have always been drawn to these comics, and it is a subject I wish he played with more.
