Well i'm sure the advertising budget isn't included in the cost shown above for movies so they are probably way above that in reality.

I mean they always say it cost 750 million total. Or it is basically common knowledge that that is what the movie cost to make total. But everyone also knows that it cost 500 million to make.

$500M?Wasnt the estimated budget $300M?(without the advertising budget)

Our Idiot Brother only cost 5 million to make? Not doing as bad as I initially thought.

No idea why Don't Be Afraid of the Dark was rated R....it was PG-13 at best. x.o

I know right!
