Good question 3D4ever,

Unfortunately, Disney decided a long time ago to not release the film in 3D, so no conversion was done despite the rumors heard. Once the theatrical release passed and underperformed according to Disney's overestimated and unrealistic expectations (considering most western movies don't do that great at the box office these days), a 3D version listing is no doubt a mistake by those listing it. I wonder where they got that information and does it show any box art with the 3D logo on it?

The movie was interesting and Depp did a respectable job even if the critics say he regurgitates the same style character (like most film stars out there playing the same style in every role, as good as they are and really, nothing wrong with doing that IMO), my biggest disappointment besides the

[Show spoiler]lack of more action, would be The Lone Ranger being a clumsy second hand character and not the hero we may have expected from the past, until the very last scene, but by then... On the other hand, there are many people who thought this was well done.
I would have seriously called it Tonto and the Lone Ranger so more people would know Tonto, played by Depp, had the reigns and the major role and that the Lone Ranger would be in the secondary role.
