Ok seriously, who the hell is going to see this?

i like Johnny Depp as much as the next person but this just looks bad. I saw an interview on TV last night with a critic who predicted this could be the Waterworld/John Carter of 2013.

And a sidenote, who the hell is Armie Hammer and who the hell names their kid Armie Hammer? I almost dont want to see it just because of his name.

I get the feeling Disney went overboard on this one turning it into a drama/comedy like Pirates of the Caribean

Lone Ranger probably should have a more serious tone and I'm not sure that's what Disney is going with.

I dont think its a good sign that nearly all the trailers are now showing Depp as little as possible.

The one that I did see him featured in was way early on in an extended trailer and he pretty much sounded like Jack Sparrow in a Tonto outfit.

I feel like this movie has been on the cusp of being released for like 3 years. And frick no I'm not going to see this.

Won't be seeing this.

I didn't like the tone of the previews and I've never been a Johnny Depp fan so....

John Carter was NOT a bad film.

I doubt I'll see it, but I could see it being fun/popcorn-ish.

The trailers have just looked awful. Someone also mentioned that a shite ton of money was spent for CGI for this movie, which just scream bad to me as a Western.

Not a chance. Looks like a huge POS. I loved The Lone Ranger movie when I was a kid (and looking back, it was pretty bad ), so I'd imagine the new generation of kids will love it too.

It's sad how the Hollywood machine works though. You could do a really good LR film and not have Johnny fricking Depp near it.

I want to see it but it's not making back its budget. $250 million for a Western is a joke.

The movie does look craptacular and Johnny Depp has sold out big time to Mickey Mouse.

If it's from the team that brought you Pirates...

forget it...

I've always wanted to see another one done though since I saw the original way back...in the 80's.

I don't know, I thought that Dark Shadows look hideous and heard it was, but then I saw it and it wasn't so horrible at all. In fact, it was pretty darn funny.

Hopefully it'll be as good as John Carter but I doubt it.

You must not hang around these parts much. John Carter was a good movie.
