Whoa Kemosabe! The New ‘LONE RANGER’ Trailer is Better than Expected

John Carter didn’t really do it for me.  Tron:Legacy had a strong start but the neon lights began to die out as the film went on.  And the Pirates of the Caribbean sequels are all terrible, TERRIBLE films with the first film excluded.  All this considered, I am still somehow looking forward to seeing Disney’s next big-budget adventure The Lone Ranger.  This excitement is now heightened after seeing this second trailer.  The trailer really paints more of a picture of a bleak western frontier than the initial trailer did thanks to some gorgeous cinematography.  We also get a little more footage of Armie Hammer in action as the title role.  My only complaint is that I still find Johnny Depp’s voice distracting because . . . he sounds like Johnny Depp – go figure.  Take a look at the new trailer below which will no doubt be showing with The Hobbit this weekend.

The Lone Ranger opens on July 3, 2013.

From producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Gore Verbinski, the filmmaking team behind the blockbuster “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, comes Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer Films’ “The Lone Ranger,” a thrilling adventure infused with action and humor, in which the famed masked hero is brought to life through new eyes. Native American spirit warrior Tonto (Johnny Depp) recounts the untold tales that transformed John Reid (Armie Hammer), a man of the law, into a legend of justice—taking the audience on a runaway train of epic surprises and humorous friction as the two unlikely heroes must learn to work together and fight against greed and corruption. Native American spirit warrior Tonto (Johnny Depp) and man of the law John Reid (Armie Hammer) are opposites brought together by fate and must join forces to battle greed and corruption.
