harwee Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 (edited) they bean count actors on hit shows that bring them millions, and then pay millions to hollywood names who no longer have market power. Edited March 6, 2023 by harwee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinyshimmery Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 ummm, ya'll act like Netflix doesn't do their market/trend research before green-lighting these projects. If they are spending this much money on a romcom it's because there is a market for it. Also Netflix doesn't just exists in the US, they are catering to the global market.

Because why would you approve a 130m film of what's basically a dead genre? I am seeing a lot of interest/nostalgia for romcoms online, Netflix probably sensed it too and wants to capitalise. 130m is an obscene amount for a romcom though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgo Posted March 6, 2023 Author Share Posted March 6, 2023 (edited) apparently it might actually be $150m Edited March 6, 2023 by okgo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Link Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) Next thing: Netflix lays off 5k employees, cancels 20 shows and rises prices over financial crisis. I’d have the CEO fired for greenlighting these decisions if I was an investor. Edited March 8, 2023 by Mr.Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeirGrey Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Netflix budgets are always inflated becasuse stars don't get residules so they have to pay that upfront, that said this is still nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insomniac Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Usually action-comedies are high budget (I.e. J.Lo’s Shotgun Wedding had a $65 million budget). But to nearly double that? The film doesn’t sound like an action-comedy but just plan comedy so what do they need all that money for Is it gonna be CGI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elevate Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) Their subs were up in the most recent update, though.

The actors booked aren’t even that groundbreaking. It’s not like they got Kate Winslet and Leo DiCaprio or J.Law and Bradley Cooper cast back together in a movie again. Now then I would understand the high budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
