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.
