Avatar’s official budget lies somewhere in between, probably closest to the figure the Los Angeles Times’s John Horn and Claudia Eller cited earlier this month—$280 million for the production, plus marketing costs.

Your budget could be $1, as long as you market it properly like Avatar, people will go see everything. And they did - Avatar was a big, steamy piece of shit. Ya I said it.

For every successful James Cameron, there's probably a five hundred million who struggle everyday. There's a lot of creative and hard working people who just can't get that lucky break sadly. Anything is possible, but realistically, there's only few doors with millions of people trying to break through.

I don't believe in the idea of popular opinion being right

I mean think about it, both Bill Clinton AND George Bush where elected TWICE by popular vote.

Not saying you are wrong relic, I'm just sayin....

LMAO! Forget the movie! Look at the return on the investment! I gotta admit, I liked the movie very much, but the money it made -vs- the money spent on it blows my mind. I never realized that investing in movies had that much potential.

Yeah, he's a real nice dude too. I met him briefly when I was in the Westwood area of Omaha when I used to live there. Rich man but very down to Earth. The house he lives in is modest considering the $$$ he's worth.
