Created "Wild Wild West"?

Um, "Wild Wild West" was a great TV show from the '60s. And it already featured lots of potentially anachronistic plot devices. It was extremely cool.

The movie was a pile of crap. It might have something to do with the fact that it took six people to write it. And that's just the folks who actually got credit.

Not to defend Sonnenfeld as a director; he's made a lot of crap. But I really liked his cinematography on "Raising Arizona", "Miller's Crossing", and "Misery", so I hesitate to denigrate him completely.

Actually, steampunk has a relatively long literary history.
