Amazing Red Dead Redemption 2 comparison to Jesse James train robbery scene (long version)

The Assasination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford homage in Red Dead Redemption 2.
This is the longer version, as they enter the train. I also uploaded the shorter version.

[@jon-umber]

I was literally yelling at my monitor, "THIS IS THAT SCENE FROM THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES!" when I played it. So cool to see others had noticed it, too. Great film and a great game. Loved this homage.

[@Rinoh]

Jon Umber yeah! I did the same thing.

[@corey-bird3489]

THEY LITERALLY CAN’T HEAR YOU! It’s people like you who clap at the end of movies 🙄

[@zepuppet._.master]

RDR 2 is literally a treasure trove of old west movie references. I dont think you can go a few minutes without running into at least one

[@breeeegs]

I clapped, I clapped when I saw it!

[@Johnnysmithy24]

@@zepuppet._.master Most Rockstar games are like that in terms of movie references. Apparently because cinema was the Houser brothers’ biggest passion, and they wanted to recreate it in this medium

And the clouds moving across the sky in the opening shot of the film like when Arthur sleeps at camp to mark the passage of time.

[@ambrosaur3646]

Yeah it has the same lucid dream-type effect, I also noticed it

[@Johnnysmithy24]

Also the scenes where Arthur is narrating or writing in his journal or having deer dreams, they are very inspired by the visual style of the movie

[@NavidIsANoob]

I'm fully convinced this film was the single biggest inspiration Rockstar had for the aesthetic language of the game.

[@litefifdy8603]

Probably the most well done scene in gaming yet. I love how it goes from cinamatic to letting you take over once the train stops. Perfect scene... movie and the game.

[@johnx4133]

It was cool but let's not say that the best scene in gaming is a recreation of a shot from a movie

this scene was awesome

[@acadia5898]

RDR2 has a more quick and dirty feel to it and Jesse James has a more methodical and slower pace to it. i guess that's just Rockstar, they don't waste that much time and Andrew Dominik, Roger Deakins and their buddies takes their time to build up things. been a fan of Rockstar since GTA 2 and been a fan of Deakins and his buddies since 2014 when i studied movies more seriously. Deakins is seriously a master

[@Rinoh]

ACADIA totally. glad to see you’re a fan of both, even though different paced.

[@Johnnysmithy24]

Actually RDR2 is quite slow when compared to other games.

[@acadia5898]

@@Johnnysmithy24 we were talking about games compared to the movies. the editing in this game is more efficient and the movie is alot more methodical and quite slow paced. the game and the movie fits for their own paces.

[@Johnnysmithy24]

@@acadia5898 I know I’m just saying that in the gaming world, RDR2 plays that same role of being slow paced

[@chrisdawson1776]

@@Johnnysmithy24 Its still quick and rushed (not speaking quality) compared to the original

[@battleborn1055]

I watched this movie for the first time yesterday, when i saw this scene i immediately thought "RDR 2 paid homage to this"

[@IgorDoval]

Im a huuuge fan of Deakins. But I havent seen this movie until 4 months ago. Now that a friend was telling me about this part of the game (he is first playing it. I have played back in 2019) I was like "noooo waaay!! It has to be a homage!! And then I came to check if there was a comparision video! hahahahah cool, man! Luv it!!!

[@bozokluoglu_]

it was one of my favorite movies and rdr2 is now my favorite game and that was my favorite scene. Oh man what a scene!!!!

[@tjanderson4735]

this deserves more views

[@invsionry]

Never seen the movie but it look awesome

[@krissuyx]

If you ever think of watching the movie, assuming you haven't yet, don't go into it expecting scenes of robbery like this. It's not like RDR, with gunfights around every corner. It's a very slow character driven movie but a great one still.

[@EricToTheScionti]

Its long. But good

[@nateds7326]

Its an incredible film. Dont go in expecting a bunch of western shootouts though.

[@corey-bird3489]

Saw the film last week and great stuff, this is like 18 minutes in and I didn’t see it coming.

[@pauldionytolentino4157]

it's an underrated film but casey affleck got an oscar nomination for best supporting actor by portraying bob ford

[@Drelam]

The best homage in the game.

[@tinawright3567]

BEAUTIFUL

[@Philpot1992]

I used to watch The assassination of Jesse James and Into the Wild back to back in my teens to get a certain "feeling". RDR2 is the only other piece of media to give it to me and I almost cried when I realised that was the case.

[@ghosty.6732]

THIS LOOKS SO MUCH ALIKE

[@tombystander]

Whoever named this movie mamed it of any potential success.

[@SippySippy93]

And this is why (even though i love RDR with all my heart) it should NOT be made into a Movie/Series... A LOT of Red Dead Redemption is derived from pre existing movies Micah Bell - Charlie Prince (3:10 to Yuma) Chapter 1 - Hateful 8 This train robbery - Assassination of Jesse James The list goes on

[@thorsal6208]
