Ambiguous Ending: Tonto vanishes from the sideshow after the conclusion of his story, and the only sign of his presence left is a live crow that flies past the young boy who was listening.Always Someone Better: Everyone believes Dan is the better brother than John.None of this experience stops him from stealing yet another pocket watch in the end. Aesop Amnesia: Tonto's pocket watch was a superficial reward he got in exchange for leading Cavendish and Cole to the silver and the extermination of his tribe, leading to a life of extreme regret and exile as he hunted down the two all his adult life to return the watch and kill them.But instead of stating that outright, they just show the Pirates logo. Advertising by Association: The reboot had trailers boasting that it was from producers Jerry Bruckheimer and Gore Verbinski, the people behind Pirates of the Caribbean.The marketing made her out to be the lead female. Advertised Extra: Helena Bonham Carter is in the film for about 10 minutes tops (in a 150 minute film).Justified as most versions of him are a Texas Ranger before donning the mask while this one is a City Mouse lawyer.

Adaptational Wimp: John Reid is somewhat less of a badass compared to his radio and TV versions.Adaptational Villainy: This movie contains probably the most evil version of Butch Cavendish to date.Tonto calls John a "Stupid white man." In Dead Man, which stars Johnny Depp, the Native American character repeatedly calls people "Stupid fucking white man.".
