bballman24 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 So, what are we thinking for the budget for Godzilla 2? No need to increase a lot but I do see 200m being possible... Well, extra 40m to bring this badass Oops, I meant 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 godzilla is making tons of money, jupiter just will be a flop. maybe will get 100m . by a lot of lucky But why should it have cost 250M? No movie needs to cost 250M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart360 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 godzilla is making tons of money, jupiter just will be a flop. maybe will get 100m . by a lot of lucky It always suprises me how the Wachowskis still get these huge budgets, they had had numerous flops (including Matrix Revolutions arguably) since The Matrix films . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Martinez Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 But why should it have cost 250M? No movie needs to cost 250M. Spimerman 3 did. 258M to be exact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmscholar Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) It always suprises me how the Wachowskis still get these huge budgets, they had had numerous flops (including Matrix Revolutions arguably) since The Matrix films . None of the Matrix films flopped. "Revolutions" did under perform domestically but it was still a good gross for a "R" film. The Matrix Trilogy's 1.6 Billion and over 2.5 Billion after home video, comics, games and merchandising is why they will always get those budgets but they will have to go back to the Matrix Well very soon I'm hearing.

CJohn Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Edge of Tomorrow??! They spent that much on Edge of Tomorrow? Insane. Yes, that is what I read. I also read JA "only" has a 150M budget. I asked myself if they hadn't switched the budgets of both in the article. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 The Matrix is still one of my favorite movies ever, and while the Wachowski's are always hit or miss it seems, I was originally looking forward to JA but the closer we get to release the less interested I get. It looks like another CGI infested clusterfuck. It's a shame, I really loved the ambition that was in Cloud Atlas and I was hoping it would transfer over.

Deep Wang Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Watching Monsters right now. It's not quite as good as the first couple of times I saw it, but it's still solid. Very small and intimate affair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Wang Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Having seen Monsters years ago and then hearing he was hired to do Godzilla, I was super excited. He was the perfect guy to do it. He just needs a little help working on that script next time. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems shorter this weekend, weird since we have a huge breakout Probably because most people here are rooting for success on this one, whereas most were rooting for failure with Spidey. Internet loves to focus on negative stuff, ha. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
