According to wiki, not a credable source mind you, RoC has raked in about 160M. 15M more and it breaks even.

I doubt if paramount is making anything from the toys as someone earlier suggested, no reason for Hasbro to do that, it's there property to begin with.
I just hope they release the DVD as a special edition "ACTUALLY FINISHED" movie with a "REAL" CGI team working out the kinks...and then hopefully keep that team for the sequel. Movie was "Good"...CGI was "Crap".

Isn't the marketing part of the cost of the film? I am asking I really do not know for sure, but I would think that must be included in the cost, cuz the actors didn't get paid "that" much, and the crap CGI shouldn't have cost em very much either.....

The Dark Knight transcends its mindless summer blockbuster / comic book movie / action movie tag ... so how can you compare it to something that is so far beyond it's competitors.
I mean, on a sidenote alot of people were LATE to Chris Nolan's vision of Batman. Batman Begins, while not as great as TDK, was by far the best comic book movie (IMO) and it's been the standard for many comic book movies since (namely Iron Man) and it didn't murder at the box office the way TDK happened to do so. It made a killing however on DVD when people who were skeptical on another Batman movie came around. I personally was not a fan of TDK, to be honest (it really should have ended before the last 30 or so minutes...as it managed to take an otherwise entertaining movie and drag it through saccharine pap). I think the film's success was due largely (if not completely) to teenage fan girls getting their grief on for Ledger. His death somehow managed to catapult a mediocre movie (albeit, better than RoC, hahaha) into the stratosphere.

No, generally not. Production budget is just that, production. The "making" of the movie in the realist sense. So catering, CGI, wardrobe, actors salary, etc is all included.
Everything afterwards is not included. Including delivering the prints to the theaters, etc etc etc. It adds up, especially when you are trying to make a big impact like G.I. Joe.

I read somewhere that the marketing spots alone came in somewhere at 150 million.

Yeah, which would make sense, considering how many there were. Ad space is still not cheap!
