A Marvel Fanboy Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 TF only costed 150M to make and it did 700M+ WW, difinitely a hit.While Battleship costed 250M and is looking for 250M OS and 100M+ DOM, it is a miss, if not a flop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that had an impact.And it's just the beginning..Higher taxes, austerity cuts in education/health are on the way.The movie market in Spain was weak in 2011, so 2012 numbers will be terribly low, it's not an important market anymore.

This sounds like the country is bankrupt.Spain is a queer country economically. In the last years it had a construction boom with building more than Germany and France put together.
