  • 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.







  • I’m sure other types of Ukrainian munitions have killed civilians as well given that the Russians use them as human shields.

    It’s not good, I’m not happy about it and I’m glad I’m not the one who has to make the decisions.

    However, I was talking about targeting civilians specifically.

    And I don’t think your example is anywhere near the same ballpark as specifically targeting fleeing civilians.

    The cluster munition attack with the highest known civilian casualties occurred on April 8, 2022, when Russia launched a Tochka-U ballistic missile equipped with a cluster munition warhead at a crowded train station in the eastern city of Kramatorsk as hundreds of people were trying to leave the area. A detailed Human Rights Watch investigation found that the attack killed at least 58 civilians and injured over 100 others.
