Teaser will be with Harry Potter on Friday too.
 
I think I already started this thread and showed Bane's pic along with it about two months ago. Nevertheless, yes, I'm stoked. Hardy's the man and I can't wait 'til Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
 
Budget:
$250,000,000 (estimated) (from imdb)

This has got to close to a record doesn't it?

That's way up there but probably lower than Avatar's budget. Avatar had some numbers citing as high as $500 million with a commonly accepted figure closer to $400 million. The most recent Pirates of the Carribbean also was in the $250 million range.

Imdb has 237,000,000 on Avatar. But wouldn't be surprised if your 400M - 500M number was right. Good call.

I thought of Lords of the Rings. But even with all the money they spent the fact they filmed all three right in a row probably saved them some major cash.

POTC 4 250M estimated. Including $55,500,000 to Johnny Depp alone.
 
What is the most expensive movie (adjusted for inflation)??? I learned about this from the studio tour of the company I am interning at right now.
 
This one has catwoman in it.....lame....Anne Hathaway......even more lame.

dont dsoubt nolan.

i didnt even watch batman begins in the theather.
just a couple of months after it was out on tv i was just sitting around and it was on tv and just thought what the hell let me watch it and boy did it exeeded all my expectations i was screaming like a lil girl during that movie.

then the second came i heard heath leadger was gonna play the joker and aaron eckhart was gonna play Harvey dent i was like what the hell is up with these casting decissions and the king of b movie eric roberts gonna play some mobster(just like the villian choice/casting of the first part , scarecrow and carmine falcone). well leadger PWNED as the joker. harvey dent was awesome especially the speech at the end. and eric roberts exceeded expectations. also on a side note i think gary oldman is phenomenal too bad he lives in the shadows of leadger, aaron, neeson, and bale.

so one thing i have learned is dont question the villians and casting call of nolan.

wait for the finished product

Titanic has to be up there given that it hit the $200 million mark 13-14 years ago. The original Superman was also very expensive for its day.

If I had to guess an older production I'd go with "Metropolis" given that I know it was in the millions of German Reischmarks back in the 1920s.
 
errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...all you guys are wrong, it is Cleopatra. I'm working as a finance intern at Fox Studios so they gave us a tour and mentioned that they had to sell 3/4ths of the studio's land (it was originally all of Century City) to pay off the debt of that film.
 
Waterworld had a 175M estimated budget and came out in '95.

What about T2? Didn't that have a budget upward of 150M around '89? Waterworld's would still be greater though.

I like Kicky's call with that German movie.

What's the formula to level the playing field?
