It looks like it might have a hard time passing its budget. Also the tough competition is not going to help this movie either.

5 days for 70 million is already not good, and that is on the brighter side of the projection spectrum.
The BoxOffice.com actually revised down the projection (from 5 days 55 million to 5 days 47 million) and expecting the film to bomb-hard.
To make it worse, WSJ and Bloomberg are both saying Disney is deploying its typical big-budget marketing for the film (which could cost around 80 million to 100 millon )
Markting + Production budget: The Lone Ranger will cost around 300 million and it will have to make
at least 600 million at WW box office to break-even
