It did gross about $40m in BD/DVD sales in addition to the B.O. in addition to probably another $50m on various platform deals. When all is said and done, it probably made them a few million but a bit too close for comfort.
Also, how the fuck did that movie cost $90m to make?

It's Sony so they got a majority of the foreign box office due to self-releasing (giggity). But yeah that $90m doesn't include advertising in the US or other territories which had to be pretty substantial.

Have you seen how much environmental CGI was used?

Pfft, like it was any better than this the CG in this no budget 2015 release (removed embed, it's the scene right after that I was trying to get to)
But yeah I know, still don't see how that brought them up to $90m.

unfortunately there's a clear gap in quality from the first one to the ones after that. The first one being much better than the others.

Add in the talent involved. Fincher, Reznor & Ross, the setups involved, etc. As a production, it can easily be seen how it can cost $90 million.

Another movie that made a profit but not the hundred bajillion zillion dollars that studios look for these days. So dump the cast.
Dumb Sony.

He also does a lot of takes from which he picks the performances that he likes and cuts & pastes different actors from different takes together in scenes.

Fincher's lowest budget was $33m for Se7en and the highest was $150m for Benjamin Button.
Since being spoiled, I wonder what he would do with a very low budget?

I wish he'd make another movie as compelling as Se7en.

Zodiac is better than Seven.

I'm not sure if he could these days. He's like James Cameron in that he uses a lot of "toys" (CGI, elaborate camerawork, etc.) to get his movies to look how he wants. Add in lots and lots of takes a la Kubrick and you get a big budget.

IMO Zodiac is his best film.
He better hope that the international box office continues to save his ass when it comes to profits if he wants to continue playing with his expensive toys.
