New Lone Ranger Trailer Is Finally up and Running
This was supposed to be live in the a.m., but I could not for the life of me get it to run at apple.com in any browser.
Then other sites offering embeds turned out to be showing the exact same trailer as last time (falsely referred to as the “final” one, which I bet even this is not).
But this pretty picture is selling more of a Verbinski vibe – subtly telling viewers, I think, that even if you find westerns boring (as I did when I was a kid), don’t worry – this is a cartoony version.

Trivia: did you know the Lone Ranger is supposedly the ancestor of the Green Hornet? So be happy you didn’t get Seth Rogen in this.
