  • Legend.

    I glossed over True Lies in the original list. Completely missed it.

    Obviously that has the highest budget. Probably half of it is just the F16 set piece at the end.

    What I’ve learned from this list is that period pieces are way more expensive than I thought.

    I assume Interview, Maverick, and Gump are all inflated just due to the historical sets.

    Inflation calculator says a 1990 was worth 2.3 times more, so most of those budgets are still tiny.
















  • You’re right and you’re wrong.

    You’re right that methane emissions are a bigger problem than CO2 and they are drastically underestimated.

    You’re wrong in dismissing CO2. Regardless of North American emissions, atmospheric CO2 ppm is increasing and we need it to decrease. Afforestation is one of the only reasonable ways to achieve CO2 reduction. Climate modeling also suggests that more forests could have other beneficial effects(increased rain, local temperature stability in shorter heat spikes) in attenuating extreme weather beyond CO2 drawdown.
