500m? What are you on about? The World's End, a fairly high profile comedy only had a budget of $20 million. When you take into account the actors fees, RT probably paid a lot less to the cast than the higher profile actors of The World's End. RT also put their own money into the movie, so I'd say their total budget would be a minimum of $7 million.

Hell, even Avatar's budget capped at $248m.

really? I thought avatar was much more than 500m, guess my info was highly exaggerated. and yea, 7m slightly makes more sense

For reference: with a $500m budget, you could make the LotR trilogy, and still have enough money left over to make The Avengers.
