I like the way your brain works. I would TOTALLY pay to see either female!Ranger + male!Tonto OR female!Ranger + female!Tonto... with or without backstory (did the Ranger actually have any backstory? I am okay with old-fashioned "one-sentence origins" the way Caped Crusaders used to have), and preferably without a Dramatic Chest Wound Sex Reveal; maybe it could just be hinted at. (Nice, scenic shot of the Ranger silhouetted against the red setting sun; outline behind a waterfall?)
in my head you just see the shooting and then she and Tonto kind of talk around it, possibly the villain dude thinks she's her brother at first and then is like .... wait. No actual reveal except to the audience. I guess she could have a bath scene? Humorous.
Hmm... "Bath scene" is kind of what I was thinking with the waterfall idea. :D But I think it would be super awesome if it weren't played as humourous, just matter-of-fact, and never actually mentioned/addressed by the characters!
Clearly I need to go get a film degree and then make this movie! It's gone too far when I'm blocking scenes in my head and I don't even own a video camera, much less the character rights and Mr. Depp's contract...
(Also, yay! for Tonto!Depp. That will be awesome.) :D
no, I mean the bath scene would be humorous, not the treatment. Like. Everybody sees someone dressed in dude's clothes and short hair, and they're like, Oh, okay, it must be a dude.
Ah, I see! Yeah, that would be pretty funny. :D Dude clothes + dude hair do not a dude make... but watching everyone's reactions when they realise this? Priceless!
