We used to make midbudget movies. Of those, probably speed is the most expensive and it’s budget wasn’t insane.
It’s good they are coming back

4·1 year agoIn Bruges or any of the Guy Ritchie movies starring Jason Statham fall into the same style, but are generally better executed I think.
The movie is a Tom and Jerry cartoon.
You aren’t supposed to like them, you’re supposed to enjoy watching the ridiculous ways they bounce off each other as they are forced to cooperate.

12·1 year agoI don’t think it was even that. He was so 100% going to lose the fight to not buy Twitter that even for someone with his resources it wasn’t worth fighting. He made a weak attempt to embarrass Twitter into backing out due to public opinion, but didn’t really have any options after that. He just fucked up that magnificently with the initial contract.
Facebook somehow makes about $18 per person on the planet in ad revenue.
Norway is 5 million people or $90 million/year all else being equal.
$100k/day is $36.5 million/year.
So, it’s less than it should be by probably a factor of 4-5, but still not so small they won’t feel it
Legend.
I glossed over True Lies in the original list. Completely missed it.
Obviously that has the highest budget. Probably half of it is just the F16 set piece at the end.
What I’ve learned from this list is that period pieces are way more expensive than I thought.
I assume Interview, Maverick, and Gump are all inflated just due to the historical sets.
Inflation calculator says a 1990 was worth 2.3 times more, so most of those budgets are still tiny.
