Rango

All it takes is one movie. You don't got the nerve. Try me.
== Hecho en Durango ==
Rango is a 2011 animated western film made by Nickelodeon. At the time it was one of the most technologically-demanding animated films ever made and is to date one of the most visually realistic animated movies ever made, and one of the more mature "kids" movies at that. It followed the protagonist, Rango, in his journey of becoming a real hero (whilst pretending to be one) after lying his way into an old western town. The town in question, dirt, has been dealing with a drought, and it's up to Rango to find out how to get the town its water back.
== History ==
Rango had a murky start in the Council. The memeber who adored the film more than any other was Meme Lord, as he had watched it on dvd countless times as a homunculus and it quickly became one of his favorite childhood films, however as he got closer to highschool, it would seem he, as well as nearly everyone else, nearly forgot about the movie. Meme Lord decided to give it another watch though, and quickly realized this was no goofy d-tier disney animated spinoff, this was a cinematic piece of art meant to be praised.
On 3/1/2020, at 3:50 PM, Meme Lord would mention Rango in the Council for the first time. Nobody else really reacted, but as Meme Lord kept the Rango barrage coming, Mike Kachowski grew interested and sent a valuable file he had found; the entire movie that someone had uploaded to Google Drive. As Meme Lord continued to sing Rango's praises, more memebers began to remember Rango, and it became clear that nearly everyone had seen the movie, but had forgotten it, stored in some derelict part of their memory, a musty corner next to Shark Tale and Flushed Away. 
Rango took the Council by storm, Mike Kachowski, The Snazzmaster, and Grumpy Cat the Elf now also memeing it consistently. Only 2 days after Meme Lord's Rango-ification, he had already made the Rango Roleplay Club poster, and began hanging them up around the school. This proved to be an extremely successful operation, and by far the most popular poster hung up by Meme Lord yet. It seemed the entire populous was under the same curse as Meme Lord, only vaguely remembering the movie, until they recalled; "is that the movie with the lizard?". The poster was so popular that Meme Lord began printing crisp copies for students who wanted a personal copy. 
Rango became a permanent meme spirit in the Council and has never faded since. He's been included in MMG's, The MegaMeme Pack as the Wither, as part of several Megamind commands, and a never ending stream of jokes. Infamously, on 12/14/2020, the Rango Suite was listened to by memebers of the Meme Council as well as Software Club members for 10 hours during a study session. Meme Lord had specifically made a 10 hour version of the track for this event. 
Rango was unique in the fact that everyone took the movie far more seriously. It wasn't joked about as much as Shrek or some d-tier Dreamworks movies like Monsters vs Aliens. Everyone in the Council unanimously agreed that Rango was just, a good movie.
