how did a movie cost 80 million to make?

[BeyondTheTrailer]

Dude, that's even on the CHEAP side for a major movie!

I adored both Golden Compass and Australia. Nicole Kidman is brilliant.

The Golden Compass actually grossed $300 millions overseas!

[wordsthatstay]

Oh, and stop dissing The Golden Compass! The thing grossed well over $200 million overseas. It may have underperformed in the United States, but those numbers hardly suggest an uber-flop. Now Speed Racer...that's an uber-flop. :p

I'm really starting to dig this new show, but I can't help but think of Wayne's World's extreme close ups a bit. Why the tight shots, Grace? Also, I second the commentor's disbelief at the fact that Four Christmases cost $80 million. Huh?! Where did that money go? I'm assuming it went to the stars, but are Vince and Reese really worth that kind of money? It just seems ridiculously excessive at a time when so many people are just trying to make ends meet.

I read an article about some of the biggest flops, and it included the animated movie Delgo, which made a whopping 511,920 bucks in its opening weekend, while playing at more than 2,000 theaters. Its voice talent includes Jennifer Love Hewitt, Val Kilmer, Malcolm McDowell, Kelly Ripa and Anne Bancroft. And then there's the recent movie Deception, which starred Hugh Jackman and Ewan McGregor, another flop. I love how studios will blame all sorts of things for a movie's failure, except for stars.
