IMBD maintains a list of top video rentals...

that goes back into the late 90s.
Little by little, when I needed a break and had the time, I've
been going back thru it, looking for buried treasure.
There were the highest expectations for the remake of the Lone
Ranger given that so many of the creative forces behind the
Pirates of the Caribbean series went into it.
There's a maxim: "Happiness equals reality minus
expectations."
Maybe just because expectations were so high for The Lone
Ranger that so disappointed so many. I wonder if the film
wouldn't have been better received if it had opened with less
fanfare.
Anyway, I thought I'd judge for myself and it's on my list of
films to watch - moved up closer to the top, of course, by
your recommendation.
Another Western that stood out was The Proposition (2005). See
BSFMKV303PRPSTTH in ab.dvd; it's about 8g in 1080.

Few films can match the star power, both behind and in front
of the camera, of True Grit. But this little film seems to
embrace many of the values that made that film so great.
I haven't seen it yet myself, but you might want to look into
it if you haven't already.
Westerns aside, we saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding recently. If
you like humorous and heart-warming, look no further,
especially if you're lucky enough to have had friends who are
Greek.
