Personal Quote:

The Dark Knight was brilliant, and the audience seemed to love it, and I think it rightfully raises expectations for the other superhero pictures, which is a great thing for everybody, for the filmmakers, for the audience. See more »

Trivia:

His breakthrough project, the low-budget horror cult film The Evil Dead, had an estimated budget of $350,000. Twenty-five years later he helmed a production with an estimated budget at 1,000 times the cost of that film, Spider-Man 3, with an estimated production cost of $350,000,000, making it the most expensive motion picture produced up to that time.
