  I saw the movie yesterday. It looked good even though it was shot at 2k. As a FCPX user, nothing jumped out as edited with FCPX, no surprise there. BoxOffice Mojo lists the production cost as $35 Million. I guess by Hollywood standards that is a small film.

  Let’s see, 6 Mac editing suites at $5 k and 6 copies of FCPX at $300. makes $31,800 or about .1% of the production budget. At about 300 Hollywood movies per year, that would be a $10 million dollar market. Hmmm.
