Why does it cost $200m to make a b-movie?

>>213757400 (OP)
Directors salary was 15 million. 2 million for villain. lets round that both leads got million each, then maybe 5 million to other side characters.

I dunno where money went, the CGI doesn't look that good. I think the movie cost 100 million, the rest are probably tax hiding and money loundering stuff

>>213757400 (OP)
It costs that much because a b-movie has to be a logical fractional of a billion, cause you want it to make a billion that's why it's B-movie like B for billion

>Directors salary was 15 million
Damn, didn't know the directors get paid so much, i always thought the lead actor gets the lion share and everyone else maybe some decent money but not multiple millions.

How much is dc/warner bros/whoever paying to have you constantly spam this board, you insufferable retard?
Also tell them that your incessant spamming only makes me want to avoid capeshit even more than before.

Because Hollywood is just a jewish money laundering scheme

This is an exception. That having said, DCU is a mess. WB should just hire some team of smartest people from HBO

The real question is why do movies today look like shit compared to T2 with similar budgets? Why does the CGI in T2 still hold up 30+ years later and movies today look like shit right out the gate?

>>213757400 (OP)
It doesnt. For the past few years Studios get funding beyond what it costs so they can get their profits before the inevitable flop. This ensures they make a profit before audiences tell everyone the movie was shit.

The technical term for this is money laundering.

the CGI in T2 does not hold up, agree with the rest that CGI has been degrading this decade

Lol

Take your meds schizo the popular stuff always gets spammed because a lot of people watch it especially if it gets released on torrents which is what happened here
>>213759520
Because it wasn't a CGI then it was all real

Ever since Epstein got busted human trafficking prices have gone up.

>200m
$323M+ budget once you factor in reshoots, licensing, 50% theater cut, and marketing. It needed at least double that amount to fully break even. The fact it's going to VOD sooner than expected proves how hard it underperformed according to WB's internalized metrics. Capeshit is dying.
