Serious comment, or an exaggerated joke about Avatar's ridiculous budget? Aemon Send a noteboard - 25/01/2010 07:49:28 AM
If the second, ignore the rest of this post.

If you're serious though, then I have to call you out on that. Avatar recouped costs a long time ago. Official budget numbers aren't really out there as far as I can tell, but even the most fantastic estimates put Avatar's cost at about 500 million. According to the box office sites out there, Avatar's worldwide gross is currently over 1.8 billion.

I would be interested to know MightyYT - 25/01/2010 08:36:49 AM 548 Views
They might for someone who made Titanic. Aemon - 25/01/2010 02:05:08 PM 498 Views
Didn't he also shell out a hundred mil or more for advertising? Was that included in the amount? *NM* MightyYT - 25/01/2010 05:47:24 PM 230 Views
He did, I believe. Darth_Katie - 25/01/2010 03:15:46 PM 504 Views

From my understanding about a third of its cost was also marketing. *NM* Roland00 - 26/01/2010 12:15:18 AM 229 Views
Not this good, but it's alright. Worth watching I guess. *NM* Gher - 25/01/2010 04:30:58 AM 229 Views
I'm looking forward to see what Cameron does next. Aemon - 25/01/2010 07:54:54 AM 510 Views
Not enough to be the nominally top-grossing movie. Ghavrel - 25/01/2010 08:39:57 AM 596 Views
only because ticket prices are so high *NM* Beqi - 25/01/2010 09:25:07 AM 221 Views
Yeah. Inflation always bugs me w/ breaking these records. *NM* Zalis - 25/01/2010 02:51:31 PM 226 Views
Especially with so many people seeing it in IMAX. Those tickets generally cost $5 or so more. *NM* Dreaded Anomaly - 26/01/2010 09:26:42 PM 240 Views
It's a very enjoyable movie...but yes, probably not really worth THAT much *NM* LadyLorraine - 25/01/2010 12:07:37 PM 213 Views
I did not expect it to make it ironclad - 25/01/2010 12:28:03 PM 531 Views
Worth seeing on the big screen. Just don't expect Citizen Kane. *NM* PhotoJim - 25/01/2010 01:12:46 PM 225 Views
No. It's not good at all. It's an 'experience'. That aside it's distinctly average. *NM* Wibble - 25/01/2010 01:24:06 PM 225 Views
I loved it. Alfheim - 25/01/2010 02:26:20 PM 654 Views
I would still expect him to like it. Aemon - 25/01/2010 06:38:48 PM 551 Views
people say that about Titanic, but I haven' seen it LadyLorraine - 25/01/2010 07:18:38 PM 511 Views
Technically, that's supposed to be Gone with the Wind Chas - 25/01/2010 11:54:55 PM 568 Views
I just had the mental image of gone with the wind in 3-D LadyLorraine - 26/01/2010 01:54:05 AM 493 Views
The burning of Atlanta was really impressive in 3D *NM* Michael - 26/01/2010 10:29:34 AM 229 Views
Yes. AVATAR is only 26th on the adjusted list. Werthead - 26/01/2010 06:56:17 PM 590 Views
