    If you see THE LONE RANGER ...you are a racist ...period .

    Yes , the trailer looks pretty cool . Oh and it might be a good movie . Now lets examine one thing . Johnny Depp is not Native American . Call me sensitive or what ever the fuck you want to call me but this is no different then a fucking white guy playing the role of a " negro " in early American cinema . It's pathetic , racist and like 100 steps backwards .

    Johnny depp should be absolutely ashamed of himself . You know what if me ...a white guy ....got cast in the roll of Nelson Mandela ? I cannot even give enough analogies of how racist and total shit this is . However go ahead and see this movie if you like ...You and the rest of the KKK will love it's white power message .

    Robert Downey Jr. must have taken 110 steps backwards in Tropic Thunder then.

    well apparently he does have ties to native america in his bloodline somewhere down the line and also, to be honest, companies will sell the movie based solely on the fact that its Johnny Depp and not some no name actor from nowhere. It's business.

    It doesn't make the viewer racist at all.
    I think you need a better definition.

    It already is crap. At least it's mildly entertaining though. Stupid Disney magic.

    ... I thought only only dying stars could be this dense. Ben Kingsley did an amazing job as Gandhi, and several (MANY!) other directors have had their actors play a different heritage than their natural one, with great success.

    That's entire frickin' POINT of even having actors around. Someone who can PORTRAY something they're NOT. If The Lone Ranger was marketed as a documentary, I'd support your history-lacking, fact-less rant. But to me, this just seems like a good actor doing what he is supposed to do.
    If you add me on Steam, Skype or whatever program/client I share my info for, please write something to identify you in the "Dude/gal wants to join your club"-message. Just so I know that an actual human is on the other end :P

    "Das rayciss!"

    You people are unbearable at times. Samuel L Jackson played the role of Nick Fury in Avengers Assemble; a character who was always white in the comics. Was that racist? I haven't heard one single person say it was. You can bet your ass that if a white person played the role of Martin Luther King Jr. or Nelson Mandela, these idiots would be on the internet and media in droves, complaining about it being somehow racist.

    Get over your double standards.
