Takeaway message — if you want your work shown in theaters, don’t sell your production to Warner-Discovery.
The fact that 100million dollars is a low budget movie now somehow is mind blowing to me.
good, I’m glad. I saw it in the theater and the biggest thing I took away from it was an appreciation for not having overdone it. just a fun, nostolgic take on an old halloween classic with ultimately low stakes. hit just the right note as far as I’m concerned.
still 100 million is a lowered budget. sheesh.
Exactly. Nothing about the original screams blockbuster, and nothing about the new one (except maybe some of the casting) does either. It’s just a really fun and, in my opinion, overall great movie. There’s nothing $50 million could have done to improve upon it. And it is absolutely worth seeing in a cinema.
I really enjoyed it.
It seems like the money laundering that has infested classical art has inevitably spread to movie and TV seasons, over 100 million budgets what the fuck
Sure, movie budgets can get ridiculous these days, but making a movie is expensive.
I guess so and inflation threw off my intuition since the rate keeps accelerating. Cleopatra in '63 for 31 million would be over 301 million today in inflation adjusted dollars, and avengers in 2012 at 220 million would be over 318 million today. It’s staggering how much less a dollar is worth today than just 12 years ago.
