The Dark Knight Budget?

[Excel]

what is the budget of tdk? i know a mgazine said ity was expected to exceed 200million...so...damn!

 

[DA Harvey Dent]

Begins was $150 million.

I'm guessing TDK will be a little more, maybe $175 million. I doubt it'll be pushing $200 million, I just don't see that considering the minimal amount of CGI that Nolan uses, the narrows set already built, etc.

 

[Catman]

After what happened with Superman Returns I'm sure WB is gonna be spending less.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Maybe $180.

 

[Catman]

I wouldn't be surprised if they spend $150 million again. WB doesn't want to risk anymore money after Superman Returns failed to be a moneymaker for them.

 

[L.A.]

Its going to be at least 150 Million, and no more than 200.

 

[The Shape]

Maybe $150-160mil. I don't think much more.

 

[Catman]

^ Agreed.

 

[JackBauer24]

I don't think it really matters. It will be enough. To be honest - I can see this sequel being LESS action and even more character-oriented than Begins.

 

[Silver Souper]

Its going to be at least 150 Million, and no more than 200.

L.A.- bless you for your signature. Is the Wire not the greatest TV show in history? Ugh, can't wait for season 5.

 

[KrazyJ1098]

Maybe $150-160mil. I don't think much more.

That was going to be my guess.

 

[Day in the Life]

A whole bunch of cash.

SR didnt make enough money. thats why they will have a smaller budget.
BB made a lot money.

 

[Cinemaman]

My guess is about $165-170.

 

[ultimatefan]

My guess would be between 150m again and 180m. If they spend more, good news is they were very happy with the BB result and have a lot of confidence in the sequel.

 

[fabman]

Between 150m and 200m.

 

[L.A.]

L.A.- bless you for your signature. Is the Wire not the greatest TV show in history? Ugh, can't wait for season 5.

I've watched all seasons of 24, Sopranos, Shield, CSI, Lost,and Prison Break! And nothing comes close to the Wire!!! Hopefully this show will stay on forever and have some spinoff's into other cities like L.A.

[FaT_tONle]

I hope its 200... actors will be pricey no doubt... but its worth it... the movie should do 250 million dom... will be disappointed with anything lower

 

[explode7]
