I couldn't care less about The Lone Ranger but Disney are making a new one so we might as well discuss it. Jerry Bruckheimer tweeted this pic which is the first photo of the actors in character. Armie Hammer is playing the Lone Ranger and I think you can tell who's portraying Tonto, the guy with the fucking bird on his head. Anyone interested?
I think supersonic was right. Disney is making movies that are intended to fail, probably as some kind of tax write off scam.
Johnny Depp was in Rum Diary, which was one of the biggest flops of last year. 13M box office on a 45M+ movie. Maybe after Mars Needs Moms, Disney figured a failed movie they could write off is just as good as a successful movie.
