Why aren't more people mentioning The Post?  It's doing fucking insane.

 

edit: oh whoops i misread the 4-day as its 3-day number but regardless it's still doing well

Because it was a given that it was gonna be the only movie to potentially challenge Call Me by Your Name for the biggest PTA of the year.

As someone who was vaguely following The Lone Ranger's production around 2010. I do remember reading a lot of old articles mentioning Disney's concern with the budget ballooning / what they wanted was too big. Apparently it was listed as the main reason why Disney was so reluctant to greenlit the film in the first place, which of course makes sense. The producers still won out in the end, even if it backfired badly. 

And none of them have worked for Disney again in a full capacity (obviously Bruckheimer had a hand in Pirates 5). That was one time where the studio's unease about a budget was quite founded. Now granted you can see where every bit of the budget went on the screen lol.

It's a good looking film visually, and the train sequence is still great. It's biggest problem is that it's way too bloated, and regardless of how good it looks, a $215m budget for a western is / was crazy.

Deserves it too.

The dead crow on Depp's head was too much of a distraction for me to pay attention to the movie. Few of the action scenes were great. But it was humorless and tedious imo. Gonna re-watch it though since folks here like it.

PBR is good

The only part I don't like about The Lone Ranger are the old man Tonto bits. You could cut those entirely with minimal effect on the flow of the movie. Those bits are not good.

 

The set pieces are GOD TIER though. They are sooooo good.
