Wow the budget for Dark Shadows was $150 million :/

It should end up with like $300-$350 million worldwide.

If it only does that then it will not turn a profit untill its released on Blu-Ray/DVD on demand since the $150 million does not include advertising and the studios only gets about half of the box office.  At $150 its still only half as much as Pirates of the Carabean: At World's End which is the biggest budget to date.

I'm pretty sure that Avatar was more expensive than At World's End.

No Avatar's budget was $237 million dollars.  I'm sure Johny Depp almost got paid more for at the World's End then the entire cast of Avatar.
