HI-YO SILVER! AWAAYYYYY!!! Just saw it. It's a stitch. (spoilerish?)

[trof]

On the way to the theater I said "If they don't play the William Tell Overture, I'm gonna be disappointed."
I wasn't disappointed.


Depp is a hoot as a somber wisecracking 'Noble Savage'.
Hammar plays a funny idealistic goody-two shoes foil.

It isn't your father's "Lone Ranger", not by a long shot, but it's a lot of fun.
And you just won't believe the things that the Spirit Horse Silver can do.
'Snakes On a Plane'? OK, maybe.
But Horse On A Train?
Not 'in'.
'On'.

1. remember when Ed Sullivan had the Lone Ranger on his show ?

Most of us thought he would show up with no mask but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ...Ed was such a shmuck.

[trof]

2. I remember Clayton Moore, who played The Lone Ranger on TV.

And that when he wanted to earn a few bucks by appearing 'in character' at events many years later, he was sued by the Lone Ranger copyright owners.

So he wore very dark, wrap-around glasses instead of the mask.
