I glossed over True Lies in the original list. Completely missed it.
Obviously that has the highest budget. Probably half of it is just the F16 set piece at the end.
What I’ve learned from this list is that period pieces are way more expensive than I thought.

Inflation calculator says a 1990 was worth 2.3 times more, so most of those budgets are still tiny.

The cluster munition attack with the highest known civilian casualties occurred on April 8, 2022, when Russia launched a Tochka-U ballistic missile equipped with a cluster munition warhead at a crowded train station in the eastern city of Kramatorsk as hundreds of people were trying to leave the area. A detailed Human Rights Watch investigation found that the attack killed at least 58 civilians and injured over 100 others.

And the ruskies are using them in civilian targets.
Beyond that, know what else has a chance of exploding well after the war and injuring or killing someone?
You know what both Ukrain and Russia have already use many thousands more of than Ukraine has been issued cluster munitions?
You know what no one is moralizing about so hard they shit their pants?

Yeah I needed to be hit over the head with it.
A couple bags of Lipton getting freaky would have got me there I think.
Macron’s government really trying to deserve the “cheese eating surrender monkeys” moniker.
