WTF Happened to The Lone Ranger?

Ойын-сауық

Walt Disney Studios has had a pretty abysmal year at the international box office in 2023. Between Ant-Man 3, The Little Mermaid, Elemental, Indiana Jones 5, and perhaps most disappointing, The Marvels, the typically successful movie studio has lost an ungodly amount of money by producing overly expensive feature films that failed to resonate among the masses and earn back their financial investments. If the studio isn’t careful and the trend continues, Disney could break another record for the all-time biggest box-office bomb on record.
Speaking of which, what would your answer be if you had to guess what Disney’s most notorious financial flop of all time? Well, up until recently, the correct response would have been John Carter, the disastrous 2012 adaptation of Edgar Rice Boroughs’ A Princes of Mars. However, after tallying up the receipts in 2023, Disney’s most infamous box office failure now belongs to The Lone Ranger, directed by Gore Verbinski and starring Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer. Of course, losing hundreds of millions of dollars is one thing the studio must account for, overcoming the reputational hit of one of the most problematic productions in Hollywood history is quite another. Yet, while much of the public focus regarding The Lone Ranger has to do with the epic commercial failure and scathing critical response, many people overlook how damned and doomed the making of the movie was in 2011-2012. Between the production delays stemming from the budget spiraling out of control and the outbreak of chicken pox to weather problems and dangerous wildfires to Depp’s near-fatal horseback injury to the literal death of a crew member on set, the tragedy of the film extends far beyond the economics. Saddle up Kemosabe, it’s time to find out WTF Happened to the Lone Ranger ahead!

    I know I sound like a jerk, my sincere apologies. But that is the finale of "the William Tell overture" written in like 1820. Disney has been using it for dang near a century, but it is not a theme song for the lone Ranger. Most people would probably recognize 3 out of 4 parts of the symphony from Disney stuff.That part is specifically called " march of the Swiss soldiers"

    I certainly agree about John Carter and Treasure Planet. Treasure Planet was terrific because it stuck to the original story, but gave it that wonderful science fiction/fantasy vibe that I just love. Hard science fiction s terrific, but the impossible story contrast of putting wooden sailing ships in outer space and things like that is something that has always stirred my blood. I have noticed something about John Carter. People who have *read the book* tend to like the movie. People who haven't, don't. Make of that what you will. I understand iit was poorly marketed. I don't know anything about marketing. The instant I saw the words John Carter in a movie trailer, I was hooked.

Its a stylish, imaginative, funny, action adventure that the whole family can enjoy, and there are precious few movies you can say that about these days. Its not perfect, but neither is it anywhere near as bad as its industry reputation would have you believe. I think legends build up around some movies like this, such that if you wish to be considered a movie aficionado, you're supposed not to like it. All I can say is that I watched it with a bunch of kids who knew nothing about its reputation, or its troubled production, and we all loved it.

    I feel like Armie Hammer might have bitten off more than he could chew with this role. A lot of times these big budget films have a way of cannibalizing themselves. Hammer really chewed the scenery he was in but I feel like the marketing was all bark and no bite. No wonder people got fed up with the movie. A box office loss like that is tough to swallow. It’s easy to choke.

    So I didn’t come out of this movie saying “Gosh, I’d liked it better if it hadn’t gone over budget”. The silly story line, making the Lone Ranger a goofball made it bad. Seemed there was a stretch back then to remake shows/movies as parodies. Charlie’s Angels, Starsky & Hutch (RIP David Soul), CHIPS which were originally a bit campy but not buffoonery. The Lone Ranger and Tonto were crime fighters with a light touch of humor. But the ‘creatives’ either didn’t watch and/or understand that concept and paired with the need to keep milking the Pirates theme, and created this mess. The visuals were great. Everything you’d like to see in a Western. It was a failure of writing, vision, and understanding of the characters. A good story carries across generations and could have been a great way to retell an old tale. So sad it was a miss.

    @@gijanetexas5770 The success of Pirates of the Caribbean is all to blame for this failure. People tend to forget how initially ill received Depp’s performance was while they were filming the first movie. It was defying the conventions of a swashbuckling movie like The Mask of Zorro and it was only received well because it differed itself from what was expected. After three more Pirates films over the course of a decade of Depp doing the same thing over and over, it grew stale and tired. Depp’s Tonto is just a Native American variation on that theme with way too much weirdness and hardly any nobility. The best part of the film was the climax set to the William Tell Overture, the only time it played to its source material rather than make fun of it.

  • @jliller

    The budget situation doomed this movie, but I think casting Johnny Depp was a major misstep. The Jack Sparrow character works as a flamboyant pirate with relatively low stakes. As a guilt-ridden Native American? No. Had this movie come out a few years later the drama about Depp's and Hammer's personal behavior unrelated to the film would have derailed it even worse.

    I enjoyed the movie because of the action scenes and Johnny Depp is a really great actor; I just do not see Depp as the correct choice as Tonto. If you watch the original show compared to the movie then the tone of the movie changes. If you look at Zorro with Banderas and compare it to the original shows, then the tone of the movie is the same. The problems I think that really caused the movie to bomb is the fact that the Lone Ranger demographic is much older, and the fact western movies are a thing of the past, but Disney wanted to bring back that genre by using Depp because of his popularity and the fact Depp starred in Rango. In fact, Rango is considered a western flick also with Johnny Depp. To me the Lone Ranger felt like Disney was trying to make a live action Rango but as a Pirates of the Caribbean movie without understanding the show in the 1st place.

    If people are really hating this movie then I really don’t know why. This movie was epic. It had so many good action sequences and I swear I felt like I was watching a Red Dead Redemption movie. We don’t get many western movies like this often and it’s honestly a real shame because there’s so many interesting things about the Wild West and we have not had any movies that take place in that time period these days. I’m sure I’m probably missing the point of why people hate this movie but whatever the reason is it is not going to change my opinion about this movie.

    The Long Ranger is one of Disney's best films at the time personally.. and I think it was just misunderstood. It's meant to be a fun Western Dime Novel style ride, paying homage to old westerns before they became serious. This is on a long list of hidden gems on Disney's Library that I think got either abandoned by Disney, dumped on by critics, so ignored by audiences. Remember back then when people took critics' opinions seriously? Mean I'm glad the world changed in that respect. I find it funny that i liked most of the films Disney released around this time. The Long Ranger, John Carter and Oz the Great and Powerful, Saving Mr Banks are among my favorite films on Disney's Library, and I place them far higher than their animated features, and other live action films including Marvel Movies.

    The 2013 Lone Ranger movie makes the 1980 Lone Ranger movie look good. Johnny Depp's Tonto set back Native American relations over a century. At least Jay Silverheels was an actual native American, and so was Michael Horse from the 1980 movie. Famed Far Side gag: The Lone Ranger, long since retired, makes an unpleasant discovery. The aged Ranger is reviewing a "Apache-English dictionary." And he says, "Oh, HERE it is! 'Kemo Sabe. Apache expression for a horse's rear end.' WHAT THE HEY?!! Always loved that cartoon.

    I hope to see a new Gore Verbinski action-adventure film. His Pirates films are one of my favorite trilogies despite some of its issues. Rango is one of the best-animated films of the last 20 years and The Lone Ranger is a damn good film, too. It's understandable if Gore never wants to touch the genre again. I wish he was able to get his Bioshock film made.

    I feel like Armie Hammer might have bitten off more than he could chew with this role. A lot of times these big budget films have a way of cannibalizing themselves. Hammer really chewed the scenery he was in but I feel like the marketing was all bark and no bite. No wonder people got fed up with the movie. A box office loss like that is tough to swallow. It’s easy to choke.

    Thanks to White House Down I got to see this movie for free and I was the ONLY person in the theater. Why? The theater put The Lone Ranger in the BIG theater room with ALL the seats. Not a single person bought a ticket. They put White House Down in the TINY theater with barely any seats and over sold tickets by a LOT. To make up for the giant influx of people who wanted to see White House Down those of us who had bought a ticket without a seat got a refund and were allowed to see this movie instead. I was the ONLY person who took up the offer and I was the ONLY person in the 200 seat room watching. The next day White House Down was in the 200 seat theater room and Lone Ranger was in the 30 seat room White House Down was in lmao.
