This Trash Cost $320 Million

I'm convinced movie budgets are a scheme to money launder; how the hell do you have $320m and no one has ever heard of your movie.

"Have you heard of Electric State?" Yeah, I love that book. "The movie?" What?

Kind of painfully ironic that the artbook meant to criticize the end results of unchecked capitalism and rampant consumerism ended up becoming a piece of unwatchable corporate sludge itself

Arcane was 250mil but set a new standard. Netflix payed 320mil to produce background noise.

It sucks because the Electric State is actually a really cool concept and it's artwork in the original artbook is amazing. Just goes to show that Netflix can't be trusted with anything.

Remember, kids. Godzilla Minus One had a budget of roughly $15 million. You don't need absurd budgets to make movies these days.

i'm no expert but i feel like i know why Netflix has so much debt

All that money on robot mascots and they couldn’t even throw ONE BIONICLE into the movie. What a shame.

ever since Netflix took off All Hail King Julien, the greatest achievement of mankind, they lost any respect left

It’s incredible how a Hollywood exec can take one look at one of the most beautiful, artful books ever made, and turn it into basically another Marvel Movie without superheroes.
