You will not believe this

Aries

It's that time again! When Mercury turns retrograde the most advantageous use of the energy is to collect and then redirect your thoughts. In this light, the potential for overreaction is high tonight, and feelings aren't really what someone wants to express. Resume the conversation later.

Taurus

Mercury turns retrograde today, and for all signs, there can be some delays, more red tape to deal with than usual, misunderstandings, and lack of clear messages coming through in general. For you, Aries, this cycle that commences today and runs until July 20th occurs in your home and family sector, where it will stimulate your desire to make contact and communicate with family members, as well as to organize your domestic life. Don't back down from your viewpoint just because everyone doesn't agree with you.
There's an intensity about the day that may cause you to recoil from certain events and conversations, Taurus.What's life without power struggles? You may find that people are harder to handle today, thanks to a new opportunity that is not available to everyone. Fight for what's yours!

Gemini

You would do well to join the intensity of the day, Gemini. You have the ability to unravel any riddle and find the underlying cause of any dispute.You need to be alone today -- force yourself to make the time.

You will find that if you join forces with the powerful movers, you will get quite a bit done and be successful. Your energy feels a bit compressed, but you can still use your big brain to dream up some new ideas.

Virgo

You may have a hard time figuring out why everyone is so worked up today. Don't waste your time, Virgo. You're better off accepting that things simply are the way they are and allowing other people to have their drama. Your job is to maintain balance

Libra

If anyone is capable of dealing with the intense emotional energy of today, it's you, Libra. Other people may be angry and unable to stomach the sensitive issues that may arise.
You're having fun today -- but not too much fun! It's just the right level of shenanigans and business to keep you engaged and interested long after everyone else gets tired.

Scorpio

Stubborn forces may challenge your easygoing nature today. You would do well to tap into this aggressive energy and use it to follow through on some projects that you've left hanging, Scorpio.

It's a good day to show that you can think flexibly -- so make sure that the right people know that you are considering alternatives. Things are looking good, and you may want to move in a new direction.

Sagittarius

 

 Tune into the aggressive energy of today, Sagittarius, and use it to push your intentions forward. Today's emotional intensity will bring you to your knees if you aren't careful. The secret is to harness the energy and use it to your advantage. Your understanding of a difficult problem grows dramatically today as new information comes to light. You may not be able to solve it at once, but you can definitely form a plan to take care of it.

Capricorn

 

 This is one of those days in which you need to act or else you will be acted upon, Capricorn.You either find a small sum of money somewhere unexpected or get some other, similar boost -- but watch out for hidden strings! They shouldn't be deal-breakers, but they may cause problems in the future. You will find yourself swept up in the thick of things if you aren't careful. Don't get too worried about what other people consider wrong. Have confidence in what you know is right.

Aquarius

 

 The intense energy of the day is helping you streamline your projects and solidify your thoughts, Aquarius.

Most expensive films ever

Due to the secretive nature of Hollywood accounting  it is not clear which film is the most expensive film ever made.

We gripe about the cost to go see a movie, which is now just over $8 nationwide (not counting 3-D movies). But, the average cost to make a movie is over $65 million, as of 2007, which makes a $10 or $11 ticket pale in comparison.

While $65 million seems like a lot to most of us, it is nowhere near the cost of the most expensive movies. Check out the film budgets of some of the  most expensive films ever made.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End

 

Just when he's needed most, Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp), that witty and wily charmer of a pirate, is trapped on a sea of sand in Davy Jones' Locker. In an increasingly shaky alliance, Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) and Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) begin a desperate quest to find and rescue him. Captain Jack's the last of the nine Pirate Lords of the Brethren Court who must come together united in one last stand to preserve the freedom-loving pirates' way of life. From exotic Singapore to World's End and beyond, from Shipwreck Island to a titanic battle, this adventure's filled with over-the-edge action, irreverent humor and seafaring myth and magic. Everything has led to this twisting, turning, wild swashbuckling ride in this final chapter of the PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN trilogy.

It’s amazing that a movie franchise based on an amusement park ride would cost so much. But, the third installment in the popular Pirates series bears the honor of having the highest movie budget, ever.

It’s production budget was $300 million dollars, nearly five times the average cost to make a movie.

Spiderman 3

The third installment in the first Spiderman trilogy was the biggest disappointment for fans, but also the one with the highest movie budget. The final film had a budget of $258 million.

Although it didn’t do well with the critics, the film did manage to gross nearly $900 million at the box office.

 "We have to prepare these sequences before the script is completely written, so sometimes these sequences have to be developed and the script gets written. We know basically what?s going to happen in the story and these events have to take place. The storyboarding of that sequence and the conceptualizing and the conversations with Sony Imageworks probably was our first conversation about the visual effects of the movie. That shot was delivered two weeks ago yesterday. The very last shot in the movie. So that?s how long. That shoot took almost three years to create."

                                   Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

This film, the sixth from the popular Harry Potter series, had a budget of $250 million, like John Carter.

Unlike John Carter, it ended up grossing more than $900 million at the box office.

 Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is a 2009 film based on the 6 novel by J.K.Rowling  It is the sixth film in the Harry Potter film series. Filming began on September 24,2007  The film was released in the UK, Canada and US on July 15, 2009 in regular theatres, and an IMAX 3-D release on July 29, 2009.  Unlike the previous film, the sixth film was released in regular theatres on July 15 and IMAX 3-D on July 29 because of the IMAX release of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. The film was chosen to be screened at the Royal Film Performance on November 17, 2008, but due to the date of release pushed back, it was not shown. On January 2, 2009, the film received a PG rating in the USA. On July 7, 2009, at the world film premiere of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in London, the cast and crew all wore white ribbons in memory and tribute of 18-year-old British actor and co-star Robert Knox.

                                                    Avatar

 

The movie Avatar was a game-changer. It was also one of the most expensive movies made, with a budget of $237 million at the time it was made. 

Avatar broke records by grossing more than $2 billion worldwide.

 

The Amazing Spiderman

 Its budget was $230 million in 2012 dollars and it ended up grossing more than $750 million.

 Peter Parker finds a clue that might help him understand why his parents disappeared when he was young. His path puts him on a collision course with Dr. Curt Connors, his father's former partner.

 

Chronicles of Narnia – Prince Caspian 

The second film installment of the beloved Narnia series also had a pretty hefty budget – $225 million. The film brought in a decent, but not jaw dropping, amount at the box office – $420 million.

 The Pevensie siblings return to Narnia, where they are enlisted to once again help ward off an evil king and restore the rightful heir to the land's throne, Prince Caspian.

Pirates of the Caribbean – Dead Man’s Chest

 

The second Pirates movie had a more modest budget than the third, but not by much. Its budget was $225 million. It ended up grossing more than the third film, bringing in more than $1 billion worldwide.

 Jack Sparrow races to recover the heart of Davy Jones to avoid enslaving his soul to Jones' service, as other friends and foes seek the heart for their own agenda as well.

 

  The Avengers

A movie about a team of superheroes, The Avengers had what could be considered a modest budget of just $220 million, especially when compared to other action movies.

While it has the lowest budget of the top 10 most expensive movies, it earned more than almost all of them (except Avatar), bringing in $1.5 billion at the box office.

 Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. brings together a team of super humans to form The Avengers to help save the Earth from Loki and his army.
