It still says The New Movie Show in the intro. UGH!

Originally 6 hours? Why not do a Peter Jackson and make it a 2 parter of 3 hours each?

If the original clips still exist, that on BluRay could be something for collectors.

[MarxMediaProductions]

Fun fact: When they were filming they got half way through the movie and had spent their budget, and if they didn't make the money back it would have destroyed the company that made it, so they went back and asked for even more money, because they really needed to finish it, so that's why it cost so much.

We watched this movie over a week of humanities class. It was great, especially since I was asked to act out and summarize the first half for those who missed it. The drowning scene was my favorite.

I'm a coin and precious metals dealer so I ran the numbers based on today's dollar value vs 1963. In today's money (31.5:1), the budget for this film would be $1,386,000,000.

Note: This is NOT an inflation-adjusted number (requiring fiat currency adjustment) but real money (silver-backed currency).

Nearly $1.4 Billion dollars. I don't care who you are, that's a friggin' chunk of change.

Now imagine how bad it would suck if it was made in the last ten years
