There’s still a few more in the pipeline as well. Guillermo Del Toro’s “Pacific Rim” for one.

“The Wolverine”, “Kick-Ass 2”, “Riddick” “Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2” and a 3D re-release of “The Wizard Of Oz” are still coming up between now and September.

No one’s ever really done “The Lone Ranger” right on the big screen; maybe it’s just one of those things. I prefer the old TV series - there was a Lone Ranger movie 20+ years ago, and it was a flop too.

Yeah the summer movie season is only about halfway through, though as you wind to August expected returns dwindle. But a good chunk of your list, and others you didn’t list, should pull off over half a billion in total (including foreign) grosses. The tent poles are alive and well, even with a few breaks.

Clayton Moore did two Lone Ranger movies on the big screen back in the late 50’s after the series ended and they were successes.
