Yes. I've heard of it like most. Not sure I like the black outfit vs. the traditional blue of the Lone Ranger, but at least he still has the white hat. Johnny Depp' look as Tonto I don't care for personally. He picked it I understand based off of artwork done Kirby Sattler. Whether it will be good or not is hard to say. Young people will take it as just another movie, while the older generations could be disappointed having lived though the radio and TV series that made the character so famous.

No offense to actor Armie Hammer who is playing the Lone Ranger this time, but he may have a hard time filling the role in many people's eyes. Many actors have played the part over the decades, but only Clayton Moore will truly be remembered as the Lone Ranger. He took the Lone Ranger Creed to heart and became an idol to many children. He made many public appearances and never appeared without his mask. In 1979, Jack Wrather, owner of the Lone Ranger character obtained a court order preventing Moore from making public appearances as the Lone Ranger. This move was a public relations disaster and was said by some to have resulted in the commercial failure of Jack Wrather's 1981 film The Legend of the Lone Ranger. Moore eventually won the suit and continued to wear his costume until his death in 1999 upon which his mask was buried with him. In 2006, when his star was placed on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, he was the first actor in history to have his character’s name along with his on that star. It reads "Clayton Moore -- The Lone Ranger". Rest in peace Kemo Sabe. HiYo Silver, Away!

"WHO WAS THAT MASKED MAN? WHY, HE'S THE LONE RANGER"

SIX TEXAS RANGERS
RODE INTO THE SUN.
SIX MEN OF JUSTICE
WITH DEATH FOR ALL, BUT ONE.

ONE LONE SURVIVOR
LAY ON THE TRAIL.
FOUND THERE BY TONTO,
HE LIVED TO TELL THE TALE.

HIS WOUNDS QUICKLY MENDED
AND THEN IN THE NIGHT,
SIX GRAVES WERE PUT THERE
TO HIDE ONE WHO LIVED TO FIGHT.

HE CHOSE SILVER BULLETS,
THE SIGN OF HIS NAME.
A MASK TO DISGUISE HIM,
AND THUS BECAME HIS FAME.

-Adaptation based upon the opening credits and theme sung first seen in the episode "Lost City of Gold"

LOL, I get it. NP. I've had a few think I was cheating recently and I'm by no means doing so. They didn't have all the facts. They were related to my farming Brigand Lightnings or Transport Raiders which are available to only high level players. That was the only reason I asked.
