For the cost of one day in Iraq, every single person worldwide who saw "Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" on opening weekend could have seen it for free.
(Based on the worldwide gross figures of $311 million)
Having paid for each person's movie ticket, we still have just over $22 million for concessions, which amounts to a few dozen bags of popcorn at most multiplexes or 27.8 million bags of M&Ms if bought elsewhere and snuck into the theatre.
And for those who might have been disappointed with the final installment of the Indiana Jones franchise, consider this: for the cost of just over one day in Iraq, $374 million, you could re-make all four Indiana Jones films (production budgets adjusted for inflation).
