Re: Production Budgets
No, not at all, wouldn't be shocked to see it top under 20m, I have no idea what OS will do, but it'll be necessary for profit imo.

Re: Production Budgets
$165m? fuck!
It won't turn a profit from the US alone. No way, Jose.

Tangled reportedly had a budget of $260m but that was apparently because the production was a bit of a nightmare. Also it's almost impossible to find a CGI animated movie from a major animated studio (DW, Pixar) with a cost of under $150m these days. I don't know why you're shocked.

Also merchandising, and the use of the character in theme parks. Animated films are so much more than just the theatrical revenue. Of course it needs to reach a certain level for those to really have an impact but past that point it really doesn't matter how much that movie cost. The profits from merch and other stuff is so gargantuan that an extra 10-30 million in it's budget really isn't something to worry about so they just let the artists do what they want within reason.

Yeah ... ..... it still won't turn a profit from the US alone. Not sure why you responded to my post when I wasn't instigating anything, instead I was stating a fact.

Re: Production Budgets
Routine budget for Ralph.
It looked good (animation wise) from the trailers so I was kinda expecting this budget and given the empty market for animation movies it should do very strong in OS as well.

Re: Production Budgets
Big budget for Skyfall. I don't understand why the budget is that high. They will obviously turn a profit, but still, why so high?? They could have cut that down easily. There are no big stars that demand $20m a movie, and it's just an action movie, and loads of them get produced for $100m or less. They could have trimmed at least $30m off of that in unnecessary expenses, maybe even $50m+.

Filming in the HEART OF LONDON. and I am sure Fiennes, Dench, Bardem and Craig cost them quite a hit. Craig got $3.2 million for Casino Royale, $7.2 million for Quantum of Solace and probably $10+ million for Skyfall.

Re: Production Budgets
Well, Daniel Craig got paid $12.7m for Skyfall.
And there are some reports of a $150m budget. Either way, what is the remaining $137.3m or $187.3m going on exactly?

Re: Production Budgets
Since this is a "family" production, I am sure that the producers collect a very nice producer's fee as well...

Re: Production Budgets
I'd also have thought that they would save money as they make a Bond movie every couple of years. Making a one-off film is expensive, but surely they have contacts and deals that could lower the cost of each production.

Re: Production Budgets
The Bond movies are also infamous for their product placement, with more than even the average Michael Bay film.

Re: Production Budgets
What's that got to do with the budget?
If brands are gaining from PP then they would have to pay the production of Skyfall for the privilege. So, perhaps they gained money from other sources, but that still doesn't explain the over-spending of the intital budget.

Re: Production Budgets
I was wondering how much it would have cost without the aggressive product placement.

Re: Production Budgets
You think that income from the PP is included in that $200m budget?
I can't see that.

What I tried and obviously failed to convey in my two posts:
Wow, I wonder how much it would have cost without the heavy use of product placement. This is based on the assumption funds generated by product placement help lower the reported budget.

I read an article that Product placement deals are worth 50 milion $. ( not counting the advertising money the companies will spend ) Plus we have a Heinekken deal that is worth 75 million $ ( but it's spend mostly in advertising the movie ) http://www.thewrap.com/movies/blog-post ... eken-63786And all sources so far claimed that the movie budget was 150 million $
