The Standard Group Plc is a

The movie business is not a cheap industry; take for instance The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, with its budget of $250 million, and its prequel The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, which cost a cool $225 million compared to the first instalment The Hobbit: An Expected Journey at only $180 million.
But don’t let the dollar signs fool you; the movie business is also a very rewarding industry for filmmakers who get it right.
