How much did Ghost Rider cost to make?

[Pegasus Kid]

A few sources around the net have stated 75 million. Wiki says that was the original budget for the movie though. Either way it seems like a pretty good estimate considering the actors involved and the special effects necessary to make the movie happen. It should probably break even through domestic sales as word of mouth has been very poor and you'd figure that it'll take a massive drop in week 2.

[Guest Smues]

Man I must be really really out of the loop. I've never even heard of 3 of the top 5 this week. (Bridge to Terabithia, music & lyrics, and the tyler perry movie)

[Gary Floyd]

I remember seeing that GR was going to compete with a Tyler Perry movie this week, making me actually hope that thr TP movie did better. Well, my hopes are crushed.

Tyler Perry's Daddy's Little Girls

That's just the oddest movie name ever, it's so onomatopoeia.

[bob_barron]

I went to see Breach today, and even though it was on two screens, it kept selling out. Good movie

[Timmy8271]

I'm just glad Music and Lyrics isn't number 1.

[razazteca]

I wonder how many more movies Drew Berrymore will do about 80's music.

[MarvinisaLunatic]

I wonder how many more movies Drew Berrymore will do about 80's music.

 

Not directly about music, but Donnie Darko was set in the 80's and she was the teacher.

 

Next week should be interesting.

 

Reno 911, #23 and the Astronaut Famer.

[Special K]

Reno 911 won't make shit. I like the show, and the movie's probably funny, but it won't make anything.

 

Astronaut farmer is the most laughable concept for a movie I've ever seen, like ever. Fucking ridiculous, It'll probably make a mint.

 

And Ghost Rider costr 120m according to iMDB.

I'm disappointed in Breach's 6th place finish. Saw the movie today and it was really good. Chris Cooper gives a fantastic performance in this. I hope good word of mouth gets more people to go see it.
