* CompleteMonster (comic): [[TheConqueror Rado Dar]] is a vicious official of the alien empire called the Caste. Crashing on Earth, Dar promptly slaughters a group of Natives, exterminating a cavalry fort and then killing the one officer who objects. Plotting to construct a beacon to call the Caste to Earth to colonize it by [[KillAllHumans killing the vast majority of humans]], Dar is only too gleeful to try to butcher anyone in his path no matter what side they are on.

Yes, they camp out in it, and yes the movie seems to imply the aliens are behind it, but... the fact that it is an upside down riverboat and is never explained ''and'' has no bearing on the plot - it wouldn't have made any difference to the story if they had stayed the night in an abandoned shack instead.

Misuse. The trope is a scene that has nothing to do with the plot and is quickly forgotten. It is not, "This one particular element in a sequence that is very important to the plot is not explicitly explained."

** It falls into FridgeBrilliance territory once you figure out the real reason the aliens are there. [[spoiler:[[PlanetLooters Gold]]. And in the old west, a casino boat probably would have the largest concentration of gold outside of a mint.

-->'''Roger Ebert:''' Yet I feel a certain small sadness. I wish this had been a Western. You know, the old-fashioned kind, without spaceships. Daniel Craig, cold-eyed and lean, plays a character familiar in the genre; think of the Ringo Kid or Doc Holliday, bad guys who rise to goodness.\\
Harrison Ford, as the rancher, embodies the kind of man who comes riding into town at the head of his private posse and issues orders to everyone. Sam Rockwell's Doc is the kind of small businessman who has come West while seeking his fortune among hard men. All the elements are here.
