| ~ Rango giving hope to the town of Dirt. |
Rango is the titular main protagonist of the 2011 Nickelodeon animated film of the same name. He is a quirky but lonely chameleon who, after being stranded in the desert town of Dirt following him accidentally being abandoned by his owners, goes on a journey of self-discovery as he looks out for his new home once he becomes the town's new sheriff following him telling a fabricated heroic story.
He is voiced by Johnny Depp.
His Good Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Good?[]
- Although he did take away the life of the Hawk that once loomed over Dirt, it was purely out of self-defense rather than desire for revenge or anger. Actively and willingly helping to find water and bring it to the town of Dirt in the midst of a drought that left the civilians in danger of dying of dehydration.
- He distracts the citizens that were fighting him, Beans, and the Bird for the water, playing a part in them winning the battle.
- He returns to Dirt after initially leaving once his lies were exposed to save the town from Tortoise John and Rattlesnake Jake.
- He saved Beans from Jake.
- He successfully scares Jake with a fake hawk, successfully tricking the snake into wasting all his bullets.
- When John trapped Rango with Beans in the Water Jail, Rango came up with a plan to break the glass to save both of them and defeat John and Jake whilst returning water to the civilians of Dirt.
- Although during the final battle, he has a lethal moment towards Tortoise John when he prepared to willingly shoot the mayor and sell him out to be killed by Rattlesnake Jake, this is justified because of Tortoise John killing the sheriffs of the town, causing a drought on Dirt and leaving the people thirsty, betraying Rattlesnake Jake and attempting to shoot him dead.
- While he starts off the film being arrogant and rather deceitful (which is primarily showcased by him lying to the rest of the town until being outed as a fraud by Jake), he subverts these corrupting qualities by the end of the film.
What Prevents Him From Being Pure Good?[]
- He is a bit lethal as he was willing to shoot Rattlesnake Jake and let him drag Tortoise John out of Dirt and presumably kill him. Even when considering everything Tortoise John did throughout the entire film, it's still too much for Rango to qualify as Pure Good.
Trivia[]
- Ironically, Rango is Near Pure Good while Tortoise John and Rattlesnake Jake are both Pure Evil and Near Pure Evil respectively.
