Lone Ranger: Lost Episodes Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Along with two complete episodes of the classic television series with Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels (shown with original commercials and network spots), this video features scenes from the first live action Lone Ranger serial (with Lee Powel), the first Lone Ranger cartoon (produced in the 30's), TV promo spots advertising the Lone Ranger series, TV commercials (some old and some relatively recent) with Clayton Moore in the Lone Ranger costume, vintage theatrical coming attraction trailers, and a "short" with Clayton Moore promoting the sale of savings bonds and stamps (never shown in a theater or on TV).
You get quite a bit for your money. You're getting two full episodes of the classic series, plus a complete "short movie" with Clayton Moore in garb, visiting Washington D.C. and promoting the sale of savings bonds and stamps, which I think was paid for and produced by the U.S. Government. It...well, it's not over the top and gung ho or anything, but it definitely makes me feel proud of my country. A bit patriotic, but mostly because *he* feels that way, and with the Lone Ranger there in D.C., and talking to you, you can't help but feel it too. But then, you're reading this review, which means you're a Lone Ranger/Clayton Moore fan too, so you know what I mean.
They only show bits of the serial with Lee Powel, which is a bit disappointing, and the cartoon is kind of cheesy, and definitely primitive animation, but the commercials are cool. Most of which are quite funny. The coming attraction trailers make you want to see the movies, which aren't on the video, so that's kind of a drawback, but I'm quite sure you can buy them here at Amazon.
The episodes aren't really "lost" like the video claims, but a lot of what you get on it besides that seems rare, so you can't really claim misrepresentation. All in all, a good buy. I'd recommend it.
