🤠✨ Throwback Thursday to Moon Rocks 2025 ✨🚀

This week we’re tipping our space helmets to "Stardust & Saddles" by Artphag Productions (formerly Haus of Vertigo), led by Meagan Roach—a film that proved the frontier isn’t just in the Wild West… it’s in the stars. 🌌🐎

This cosmic western rode away with:
🏆 Best Makeup
🤠 Best Space Cowboy – John Clark Bullard as Bojangles

From its unforgettable characters to its stellar style, Stardust & Saddles brought serious yeehaw energy to the Moon Rocks universe. 🚀✨
