Rango	comment	Rango is a 2011 film directed by Gore Verbinski, starring Johnny Depp, Abigail Breslin, Isla Fisher, Alfred Molina, Bill Nighy, and Ray Winstone, among others. An ode to Spaghetti Westerns, it is Industrial Light & Magic's first feature-length animated film, as well as their only one created as an independent studio. It won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature that year.An unnamed pet chameleon with an identity crisis falls out of the back of a car and wanders the desert, eventually reaching the town of Dirt. After accidentally killing a hawk that had been terrorising the townsfolk, he attempts to further impress the locals by concocting a badass backstory, adopting the name Rango along the way; this impresses everyone and gets him hired as sheriff by town mayor Tortoise John. But Dirt has its own problems; the town is going through a drought and its water supply is disappearing, and it's up to Rango in his newly-appointed position as the law in Dirt to find the cause—while at the same time convincing the people of Dirt (and himself) that he actually has the grit to be their sheriff and protector.The film plays out as a loving tribute to Westerns of the past, taking its story beats from the structure of classic films while maintaining its own course. References to great films of the past abound throughout the film, serving as Easter Eggs for fans of the genre.The movie is also noted for its visual contrast with other wide-release CG animated films. Whereas most other films in the genre tend to go for a clean, idealized look for their world, Rango intentionally avoids this. Most of the characters are based on ugly-looking animals, and the whole world seems to have a layer of dirt and grime on it. In addition, Verbinski filmed his actors performing in live-action, then based the animation on the shots. The result is a setting that looks more "real" in some ways and more cartoonish in others. Either way, it certainly stands out visually.Tropes:

Rango / int_122e956a	comment	One Bullet Left: A running theme in the movie based off Rango's lie that he killed seven men with one bullet (sorta... the seventh one "died from infection"). During the hawk chase scene in town, he accidentally kills it by shooting the licorice that was wrapped around him. The bullet ricochets and hits the tower, causing it to fall on the bird and kill it. During the climax, Rango uses his one bullet to intimidate Jake, then shortly after uses it to get out of the drowning pit the Mayor put him and Beans into. Jake also uses this line when it comes to giving Tortoise John his due.

Done a bit with the Greek Chorus of owls, who generally stay out of the action and don't interact with the other characters — at one point, they don't play an appropriately exciting musical cue on time, so Rango has to repeat his Call to Adventure. Later in the film, Rango uses them as part of his plan.

Rango / int_26eb6287	comment	Funny Background Event: There are plenty. In fact, sometimes they're in the foreground. Or the sideground! When the Mayor is telling Rattlesnake Jake that he has outlived his usefulness and that he's not any different from Rango, you can see Rango and Beans in the drowning tank behind him, Rango shaking a catatonic Beans and then administering the Heimlich. This one happens in the foreground (but not at the center of attention): when the tank of water begins to break, the Mayor is seen panicking with his wheelchair for a moment, looking for the lever that moves his chair, and accidentally pulling the one that releases his golf club. While Beans and Rango are discussing his new position as sheriff, one of the town's dimmer children is playing with Rango's gun — admiring it, looking down its barrel ("There's a bullet in there!"), chewing on it — in general, chewing the scenery. Actually more of a Funny Back-sound Event. When the posse introduces themselves as thespians, Waffles can be heard singing "la la la" to the tune that the mariachi owls are playing. Kinda gross actually; in the extended ending, when Beans says, "You come back with all your digits!" there is a gritty-looking child in the back picking its nose. While Rango's being fitted for his clothes, a spider keeps bustling up and measuring the width of his shoulders, sleeve length, etc. He seems to be one of the tailors, until Rango glances aside and sees him busy assembling... a coffin.

One also can't forget the few bits of "bug confusion" that occur between the dead cricket in Rango's enclosure, the life-size pillbugs used as golf balls, and the anthropod denizens that populate the town of Dirt, including in one scene where Rango tries to emulate the walking style of a clothed beetle.

When the hawk is trying to drag him to his death, Rango has a clear shot with his gun, but instead shoots at the rope attached to his body, which starts a chain reaction that ends in the hawk being crushed by the water tower. Rattlesnake Jake even notes that he doesn't see "killer" in Rango's eyes. By the end of the movie, however, Rango becomes willing to use lethal force to protect those he cares about; the resulting Death Glare he gives even scares Jake.

When Rango becomes the new sheriff of Dirt and it falls upon him to investigate the disappearance of the bank's water, he finds out that the Mayor had been diverting Dirt's water supply to a newer, more modern town he's in the process of building on the land he snapped up from the people of Dirt.

During their scene in the jail cell, one of the verses in their funeral dirge translates into "Where are your eggs?" ("eggs" is Spanish slang for "balls"). "Cojones" are also mentioned once or twice. The best has to be, though, when Rango makes a crack about Beans's name, he comments that he enjoys a nice puttanesca, but he wouldn't name his daughter that. In Italian, "puttanesca" literally means "whore-styled".

There do seem to be very few carnivores amongst the townspeople, as most are herbivores or insectivores, while carnivores are treated as villains and brigands. There is a bit of an edge case of this in the movie, as carnivores are seldom seen as "cute", and the only two carnivores are "cute carnivores" (a cat and a fox).

Rango / int_392372f9	comment	Actor Allusion: Depp deliberately based his role on Raoul Duke. That said... When Rango is flying through the air on the highway, he smacks into the windshield of a car driven by Raoul Duke and Dr. Gonzo. Also, Rango himself wears Duke's Hawaiian shirt, and dons a dress at one point in the film; this isn't the first time a Johnny Depp character has worn a dress. When Rango is in his tank and trying out various different characters, some of them seem to be allusions to other roles of Depp's, including a grizzled sea captain and a Latin lover. Rango is carried away by woodlice in a brief scene, and he later finds a boat in the middle of a salt flat. He also runs like Jack Sparrow, leaning back, arms akimbo; and like Jack in the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, Rango is also armed with one bullet. The Spirit of the West is voiced by Timothy Olyphant — a brilliant three-pronged Shout-Out to Justified, Deadwood, and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, as his character model is a Clint Eastwood look alike. Also, this isn't the first time Bill Nighy has portrayed a feared Grim-Reaper figure. He even throws Jones' characteristic verbal tic into a line near the end.

Rango / int_4bfcfa7c	comment	Kansas City Shuffle: Rango doesn't go into his final showdown with Rattlesnake Jake without a plan. However, their duel is interrupted by the miraculously revived hawk! Jake is thoroughly rattled by the reappearance of his dreaded nemesis, but catching a window's reflection reveals that the "hawk" is in fact the mole family's bats flying in tight formation. Enraged at the affront to his mystique, Jake unloads on the skies, seeking to shoot down every bat he can... which causes him to run out of ammo, allowing Rango to safely walk up to him with his One Bullet and plug him dead. Or at least, that was the plan...

Rango / int_7881f335	comment	Chekhov's Armoury: Used masterfully. The climax uses practically everything in the entire film. The road from earlier, the wise old roadkill armadillo, the walking cacti, and the Spirit of the West, all of which are seen or mentioned at the beginning of the film, help Rango out of his Heroic BSoD. The mole family, Jake's fear of hawks, the hole dug by the moles, the pipe underground, and Rango's "one bullet" each play a huge role in defeating the Mayor at the end of the film. The writers practically made everything in the entire film a Chekhov's Gun! Even the little play Rango does at the beginning of the movie turns out to be a plot point during the canyon scene. Inverted: interestingly enough, there is no further mention or reference of the huge eye that Rango and his posse obliviously pass by in the underground tunnels, nor the creature that the eye belongs to. (Seriously, what is that thing?) The Spirit of the West. Rango recites its story at the posse's campfire to make sure we don't forget it.

Of course this is part of the point, as Rango's many personality issues and quirks stem from boredom and isolation. The tank is completely devoid of any vegetation, which is needed for an arboreal species like chameleons. The enclosure is far too small, as chameleons need ample space to roam. Chameleons are notoriously hard to care for due to the fact that they typically donâ€™t handle captivity well at all, and can actually die from stress because of this, so a few toys and a small puddle of water are not sufficient enough accommodations to help them adapt well to captivity.

Rango / int_f604f64b	comment	Dude, She's Like in a Coma: When Beans first freezes up, Rango sniffs her hair, then puts an arm around her shoulders til she snaps out of it. When she does it again later, he uses it as an opportunity to give her a little kiss on the cheek... and then it turns out that this time she was only pretending. The closest he'd come to a woman (or indeed another sentient being at all) inside his terrarium was a headless Barbie doll, so he doesn't have much of a reference pool for proper behavior.

Turley, has an arrow through his eye, and Rango sheepishly points out, "You've, uh, got a little something in your eye there." Turley seems to think Rango is talking about his conjunctivitis, in the other eye. "Must be that immersive theater."

As Jake puts it, "You got killer in your eyes, son? I don't see it." In the final confrontation, Rango again has Jake at gunpoint, and while the rattlesnake attempts to call it a bluff, he balks after getting a look at Rango's unflinching stare.

Rango / int_fd412292	comment	Wise Serpent: Rattlesnake Jake, despite on the surface appearing to be just a vicious brute, proves to actually be highly intelligent. During their first encounter Jake utterly tears Rango apart purely through accurately psychoanalysing him as a fraud despite never having actually met, even forcing a loaded gun into his hand because he knows Rango doesn't have it in him to pull the trigger, and giving a public display that crushes his reputation. Likewise, even whilst panicking at the end, he almost immediately realises the "hawk" is a fake.

Rango / int_fe0330fb	comment	Brick Joke: Rango used to have a girlfriend, but she couldn't keep her head. The Mayor is an avid golfer, having "played the game for years". When Rango learns where the Mayor got his inspiration, i.e. the land development of Las Vegas, one of the most prominent things seen is a golf course, where he most likely discovered the game. "Learned a thing or two" indeed — tips on his swing, no doubt. One for the tie-in video game, as Beans mentions in her first scene that her father was kidnapped by the people of Andromeda 5. Come the game, it turns out she was right.
