I agree, Beans doesn't look like a desert iguana, seeing as Rango looks very much like a real-life chameleon face-wise, if you were to apply this to Beans as well, her big eyes make her look like some sort of gecko.

It seems unlikely that any animal other than the main character would be from anywhere other than the American South West. That all being said, it is both idiotic and infantile to fight about it. Unless there's a definitive source, such as from the script, the DVD, or some other production material, remove all references to what animals they are beyond generic terms. An actor's interview is fine if it's generally undisputed, but isn't concrete since actor's say things they just made up or repeat things they were told much earlier in production all the time. - Kuzain ( talk) 20:35, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
Rock-Eye can't be a "desert rain frog" as these are distributed only in Southwestern Africa. He's either one of the two spadefoot species or a canyon treefrog. - MfG, K. Grünitz — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.150.76.152 ( talk) 22:43, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
WP:FILM's consensus-derived guidelines state that movie plots should be 400 to 700 words, and that top end only for more convoluted plots. The plot here is 1,200 words. That's nearly twice the allowable length. It needs to be severely trimmed. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 04:28, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
If the movie cost $135 million then what were the actors salaries? I mean what did Johnny Depp get for a salary on this movie? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Globalstatus ( talk • contribs) 18:58, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
I think that some of the backgrounds were probably live acted, including the human city scene. The rest is all CGI. Do any of you think the same way? 81.154.86.125 ( talk) 22:33, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

With some of these crew credits, not all the infobox credits are listed. It would make sense to add the names into a production section if they had notable coverage for working on this film. I don't know if anyone else thinks it would be worth it. BOVINEBOY 2008 00:00, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
According to the supplemental material, Priscilla is actually an aye-aye, not a mouse. (I thought she was a 'possum.) WilliamSommerwerck ( talk) 22:01, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
Esteemed film buffs and film study scientists, I humbly request the Themes portion included into the article. The postmodernist qualities of the film go way beyond quips from movie critics (who cast as short a glance on the movie as they could), and I think should be researched (or quoted) accordingly.
The first and foremost are this film's parallels with every "film within a film" movies ever made, more specifically "theater within a film" movies, like Tom Stoppard's. There is at least an undeniable arc with the "fourth wall" being bluntly painted on the screen surface itself, and No-Name Clint Eastwood appearing decisively not just for laughs. This is a smart and subtle commentary on film, contemporary culture and the nature of fiction, and it should not be dismissed as such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.73.7.61 ( talk) 18:43, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
Isn't Rango set in Gerudo Valley? Can someone know about this? -- Tyranitar Man ( talk) 04:20, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
A persistent anon IP today has been adding incorrect credits to the infobox. The screen credit breaks down into "Story by" and "Screenplay by" credits per the onscreen credits and such secondary sources as the credits at the film-industry magazine Film Journal International. I'd like to ask other editors to keep an eye out for his edit-warring IP. I will notify him on his talk page.-- Tenebrae ( talk) 21:50, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Under the heading "development" after the sentence ending in "the abyss", add the phrase: It's plot is loosely based on a film directed by Robert Redford in 1988 called "The Milagro Beanfield War" and even mimicks some of the main characters.

[Following "Welcome" templates] One note: Please do not blanket-revert without discussing on an article's talk page. This can be considered edit-warring. Your blanket-revert at Rango (2011 film) goes against consensus discussion on various WP:FILM talk pages and violates WP:INDISCRIMINATE. It's understood that this account is new and has only bee editing since December, and that there are many Wikipedia guidelines and policies to take in. The overall rule is to collaborate rather than be contentious. Thank you for understanding, and Happy Wiki'ing. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 15:14, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Verbinski and co. are well aware that aye-ayes don't exist in the U.S. They even say that in the commentary — they were looking for interesting animals, not necessarily ones that are native to the setting. Ten Pound Hammer • ( What did I screw up now?) 21:11, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
Here's a bit of trivial, common-sense OR... Priscilla's eyes face forward, unlike that of mice, which aim roughly to the sides. Therefore, she cannot be a cactus mouse. The color and size of her eyes are a lot like an aye-aye's. And that's where the resemblance ends. Her ears are tiny, unlike either a cactus mouse's or an aye-aye's. And her nose bears little resemblance to either animal's. Conclusion? Priscilla is CGI Frankenfauna, created simply to look weird. WilliamSommerwerck ( talk) 14:57, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
Roadkill the Armadillo is clearly drawn to be Don Quixote, with his helmet, his lance, his moustachios, but the conversation on the commentary track from the director and his cohorts fails to say anything about it. Varlaam ( talk) 06:11, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

"Rango" rhymes with "Django", which is one of the old spaghetti westerns.
The music is obviously inspired by Ennio Morricone's spaghetti western music (He did not, however make the music for "Django"). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.44.138.159 ( talk) 13:28, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
While watching the film (for the first time) on DVD today, it struck me that the scene in which the water cooler bottle – retrieved from the moles and chased (with an hommage to the Death Star dogfight from Star Wars) – is eventually overturned, revealing it to be full of sand, was a further hommage to the near-end of Mad Max 2. If a reliable source for that could be found I suggest it would merit inclusion. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.200.138.194 ( talk) 07:53, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
