Wrong. You have to pay for a subscription to IMDBpro. Keep hanging yourself. I've worked in the entertainment industry for 18 years. And its amazing to me that jokers like you come on an investor board like this and flood people with clueless nonsense, half-truths and BS nonstop. Stop desperately trying to mislead people. Point to facts or you'll keep exposing yourself and keep looking like a clown. The Cowboys & Aliens box is $209 mil and counting.

There's no over the top $200 mil ad budget. I heard a fifth to a quarter of that and pointed to an article that reports $30mil. But I'm not the one claiming in here that the movie didn't cover its ad budget, you are, so prove it. You haven't. You have a writer who claims to have input from a nameless, faceless "producer" who wasn't even a producer on the film who makes no claim to have any direct knowledge, making a wild guess. And you find that reliable? Anyone who works in the entertainment industry knows there's a cottage industry of people who want to assert this movie is a bomb and that movie is a hit and half the time they are full of it. That's why the writer of your movie review doesn't name his "producer" or any sources. In fact, everyone he references is anonymous. Ridiculous.

I'll go with $209mil box and counting because that's a fact. And I'm comfortable with the idea that given the budget ($163mil) C&A has essentially covered its production and ad budget at the box office because I've heard first hand what the ad budget actually was and seen that ballpark echo'd in print. And it's a small fraction of your ludicrous claims in here.
