We're stating the obvious here, but movies take money to make—sometimes a lot of money. Think about it—you've got to pay the actors (though sometimes big name actors are willing to take a pay cut in order to make projects they really believe in happen), and the bigger the name the bigger the paycheck. Same deal with the directors and producers. Then you pay the writers, the film and set crew, the designers, hairstylists, make-up artists, extras—you get where we're going with this. Now if the movie being made is one that requires a lot of CGI, traveling, special effects, and editing done in order to make it happen, then that means the budget is going to look a bit hefty. Today we'll be taking a look at the all of the films vying for the title of most expensive movie ever made. Some of these may surprise you, so get ready.
