** The movie's version of James West has all the qualities of the TV Artemus Gordon that wouldn't work for the movie's Gordon, like his more jocular brand of {{Deadpan Snarker}}y and use of disguises.

Added DiffLines:

* InformedFlaw: Jim West is treated as trigger-happy DumbMuscle by Gordon, President Grant, and the narrative of the film itself. However, he shows himself in multiple scenes to be quite intelligent, clever, and perceptive. His flaw is more that he's impetuous and prefers to think on his feet instead of being subtle and forming a plan first.

* MasterOfDisguise: Artemus Gordon is known for having many disguises at his disposal, such as the saloon girl in the opening and President Grant, something which West himself finds to be quite dubious. Eventually, West forces himself to pose as a BellyDancer to stop Loveless from executing Gordon.
