Disney Dumps Depps' Lone Ranger Flick
Think OUTSIDE the Box! For the BEST in Repro & Custom Packaging!Tags: None -
250 mil!? I can't wrap my mind around a western needing a budget that high. It's not Lone Ranger would need to be CGI heavy or anything. Horses and some western sets would cost 250 mil!? Just how much does Depp make per movie now?You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return... -
maybe the failure of another masked superhero with a similiar budget scared Disney a bit?You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie BanksComment

Superhero hype had an update. It's not cancelled. It's just being reworked to lower the budget.

Depp rules. Lone Ranger rules.
This movie will more than likely be awesome."No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris MannixComment

Not a suprised Cowboys and Aliens bombed and Disney got scared $ 250 million is a absurd amount of money Jerry Brukheimer and Gore Verbinski are nuts!Comment

But Depp is one of Today's Greatest Actors Ever imo.
Westerns just don't make alot of cash these days in the Box Office.... I heard Cowboy & Aliens was great ... by several people ..., I just haven't had a chance to go yet..... The Original Knight ..., Often Imitated, However Never Duplicated. The 1st Knight in Customs.
always trading for Hot Toys Figures .Comment

I want a real Native American to play Tonto...not some dude who claims he has some Native American blood somewhere...
The actor (Depp) has also surmised that he is part Native American, saying in 2011, "I guess I have some Native American [in me] somewhere down the line. My great-grandmother was quite a bit of Native American, she grew up Cherokee or maybe Creek Indian. Makes sense in terms of coming from Kentucky, which is rife with Cherokee and Creek."
Sorry, "I guess I have some" and "somewhere down the line" doesn't make you a Native American...lol.
Come on...this is bloody 2011 already...give an Indian role to a real Indian...it's not like they are taking over all the acting roles or something...lol.
I have two great Native American actors in mind who would make great Tonto's...
Adam Beach (Windtalkers)...
Rudy Youngblood (Apocalypto)...
You wouldn't want either of them to be The Lone Ranger, right?
Then why would it be OK for Depp to be Tonto then?
Another one...people are up in arms about a new Black Peter Parker (which I don't like either)...so the same should apply here.
...and that's my point...Last edited by Hector; Aug 13, '11, 11:29 PM.sigpicComment

Yeah...I know the story...Johnny Depp is the cash cow and everything...but that still doesn't make it right.
Armie Hammer is not going to cut it as the leading man.
Get a great and famous bankable leading actor to play the Lone Ranger...and problem solved...
