Judge Dread :verified: on Nostr: Because Disney is cashing in on the handouts desperate governments offer any film ...
Because Disney is cashing in on the handouts desperate governments offer any film project shot in their territory we have precise budget figures for that wretched Snow White adaptation. With only preproduction and principal photography complete they've already blown $200 million on it. Now they get around $45 million in kickbacks from the UK taxpayers, but still, the production is likely to spend another $100 million in postproduction making its actual cost $300 million (minus kickbacks Disney's cost: $255 million) making it one of the most expensive films ever made. And it has not a single marketable star and the director is talentless. Plus fan reaction to stills has been entirely negative.
