Takeaway message — if you want your work shown in theaters, don’t sell your production to Warner-Discovery.
I’ll do you one better - if you want your work to see the light of day at all, don’t sell your production to Warner-Discovery, as it might get cancelled for a tax writeoff.
The fact that 100million dollars is a low budget movie now somehow is mind blowing to me.
$100 million isn’t considered low budget in Hollywood.
I guess it might be relatively low for the sequel to a cult classic made by a famous director and with a star spangled cast. A lot of directors probably wouldn’t limit themselves when they know they don’t have to.
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.
Hollywood accounting is insane. Offically all movies loose money.
What if they could tight money?
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.
I’m sure I’ve seen better comedies, but I really can’t remember when.
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.
He made us choose between watching it with rude strangers in public and not watching it at all.
you could probably arrange to watch it with nice people in public. or just wait until it hits streaming in a couple months?
You mean after everyone’s done talking about it? 😐
Every fan of Tim Burton’s work that I know constantly talk about all of his overrated movies all of the time, you’ll be fine.
noooooo!!! meemaw went and saw the movie without me!
