Did they reaaly think it would make 250-400 million? No fraying way! Battleship: come on! Its based off a board game. It needs 300-450 million. Journey had decent special effects for like 80 million. Why cant other movies? Crazy! |
Agreed. Also Battleship and The Avengers pretty much had the same budget if you take the actors salaries out of it which where a lot higher for The Avengers. If you make a risky movie with a high budget its a good idea to fill it up with a lot of product placements like the first Transformers movies or have a lot of merchandising.
