"Одинокий рейнджер", "Hi-yo, Silver!" Опции

[A-Nett]

VARIETY УТВЕРЖДАЕТ, что Арми Хаммер уже официально утвержден на роль Одинокого Рейнджера в одноименном фильме. По их сведениям Брукхаймер уже во всю рекламирует фильм на своем вебсайте. Дисней не дает официальной даты выхода картины, все может "завязаться" еще осенью 2012 :

Bruckheimer has already been promoting "Lone Ranger" on his shingle's website with a logo for the pic that Disney has not yet dated. It could bow as early as fall 2012.

Производство картины начнется сразу после окончания работы Джонни над " Мрачными тенями и Хаммера над "Белоснежкой"

Production would start after Depp wraps up WB's "Dark Shadows" adaptation and Hammer finishes "Snow White."

ВОТ ЗДЕСЬ утверждается, что фильм выйдет на экраны в 2014 году.

Directed by Gore Verbinski, The Jerry Bruckheimer production is set to arrive in theaters sometime in 2014.

и рассказывают завязку истории про Рейнджера:

Story: The Lone Ranger’s origin story begins with a group of Texas Rangers chasing down a gang of outlaws led by the notorious Butch Cavendish. After the Rangers are ambushed by the outlaws, a Native American named Tonto stumbles on the scene and recognizes the lone survivor, Reid, as the man who has previously saved his life. After nursing Reid back to health, the two men dig six graves for Reid’s comrades, among them Reid’s brother. Reid fashions a black mask using material from his brother’s vest to conceal his identity, so that Cavendish will think there were no survivors. Even after he and Tonto bring the Cavendish gang to justice, Reid continues to fight evil under the guise of the Lone Ranger.

История: История появления Одинокого рейнджера начинается с погони группы техаских рейнджеров за бандой во главе с пресловутым Бутчем Кавендишем. После того, как ренджеры попадают в засаду преступников, на сцене появляется коренной американец по имени Тонто. Он узнает в единственном выжившем, Рейде человека, который ранее спас ему жизнь. После того, как Тонто выхаживает Рейда, , двое мужчин копают шесть могил для товарищей Рейда, в том числе и его брата. Рейд надевает черную маску, сделанную из ткани жилета брата, чтобы скрыть свою личность, так что Кавендиш будет думать, что никто не выжил. Даже после того как он и Тонто привлекли банду Кавендиш ы к правосудию, Рейд продолжает бороться со злом под видом Одинокого Рейнджера.

какая чудесная роматишшшшшшшшшная история.
Интересно посмотреть, как это будет выглядеть " с точки зрения Тонто"

На ДеппЗоне привели цитату с форума(?) Терри Россио - я так понимаю, это его комментарии:

» Смотреть спойлер - скрыть спойлер... «

To settle some of the wild speculation, from Terry Rossio on his forum (no link allowed):

Posted by Terry on Tuesday, 16 August 2011, at 2:19 p.m., in response to I should not post at 3 am ..., posted by Trent on Tuesday, 16 August 2011, at 10:11 a.m.

No. Completely inaccurate in every detail, save a bit at the end ... you can't do a film with a Native American character and not 'flavor' it with some doses of spirituality. Other than that, a rather complete mischaracterization.

Actually, in the Lone Ranger, the mask works great. Because, unlike all other superheroes, there is no 'secret identity.' The Lone Ranger is only a man in a mask, no one knows who he is.

You would have said the same thing before the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, and you would have turned out to be wrong.

Here you make the mistake that the script, or screenwriter, can control a budget. Scripts get written and designed on the desires of studios, directors, producers, and stars. And studios feel more comfortable making big spectacle bets these days; a mid-level budget is harder to green light than an upper budget event film.

>> 2) Johnny Depp wanted to do a tribute to his mentor Marlon Brando

>> overshadowed by the special effects.

It's incorrect for you to presume a high budgeted film has many special effects. The budget of the (now cancelled) Lone Ranger was high because of plans to shoot on location, with lots of extras. I don't know that there was a single effects shot planned; probably, but the usual 'enhance the background' stuff. (Actually I take that back, I think there were some animal shots planned to be done as effects.)

>> If Depp drops out, find a 100% Native American to play Tonto.

The studio would not proceed with the film at any budget without Johnny Depp.

>> The reports said Bruckheimer submitted a budget of $232 million and
>> Disney wanted it under $200. Was that accurate?

No, that's not accurate. It's not ever that simple. The actual conflict, even when budget is the issue (as it is here) includes a complex array of factors, including but not limited to: days in the shooting schedule, costs of different shooting locations and the likelihood of overages including type of shooting, (i.e., action scenes, horses, weather); various tax credits, the various back-end participations as it relates to profitability; deferred salaries, contractual obligations (linking salary cuts to film overages); even the use of development funds to cover budget shortfalls. Etc. Yes, ultimately there is a basic gap regarding negative costs, but understanding that gap involves many issues which evolve over time.

Так что Терри опрвергает версию спецэффектов, напротив, говорит о съёмках на натуре с большим количеством народа. ( Отменённый кастинг должен был набрать 500 человек).
