There are many levels of reshoots, some completely copy the original script and even the scene scheduling, but most of them have a certain degree of adaptation, just applying the original story structure. Maybe you will say, no, many characters in "The Lone Ranger" are different, time and space and storyline are also different, how can it be considered a remake? Yes, I agree with all of this, and not only that, but "The Lone Ranger" continues the main storyline of the first episode: the son of the Lone Ranger's best buddy and friend, Goose, who died unexpectedly, grows up, too.
Become a navy pilot, codenamed Rooster; the lone ranger's unresolved regrets and guilt, also in the interaction and combat missions with the rooster, finally achieved redemption. By remake, I mean that the sequel replicates the "dramatic elements" of the first episode in large numbers, or more precisely, "theatrical elements of box office success" ( the original cost of the first episode was $15 million and the global box office exceeded 3 billion ). In addition to the important bridges mentioned above, from the perspective of the main axis of the story, he is a arrogant whatsapp list and maverick hero who had to give up himself because of setbacks, but was nourished by the love of beautiful women, and the elders (similar to mentors) ) or comradeship to complete important missions and heroic journeys. This pattern, basically in both episodes of the movie, is clearly seen. Of course, it is impossible to miss the most important element: the air battle scene. When "Defender" was released in 1986, those realistic, compact and brilliant air battle scenes caused shocks all over the world.
Walter Goodman, a reporter for The New York Times at the time, said it interestingly . He said that the story of the film was a Hollywood cliché, but the air combat sequence was indeed "the state of the art in cinema today." the art), although he admits that "sometimes I'm not sure what's going on", but it's still "very exciting." We all know that in 1986, the development of film special effects technology has been incomparable. 36 years ago, it was quite necessary to rely on the special effects of physical models, and now it can be completely done with computer animation, and it is more delicate and smooth. Although I personally think that the 1986 air combat segment, relying on excellent editing techniques, instead gives people a stronger sense of realism, but I think for young audiences who are used to the delicate sense of computer animation-assisted special effects, such subtleties The difference is not important. The important thing is that the air combat paragraph of "Lone Ranger" is also the "most advanced performance" of this era.
