The film is one of the famous fiascos in the history of Hollywood. Coming in absurdly over budget (originally $23.5 http://www.halleonard.com/item_detail.jsp?itemid=314112&order=41&refer=browse&start=L&end=M&catcode=05 finishing at $46.63 http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=adventuresofbaronmunchausen.htm), it put a black mark on Gilliam's career from the studio's point of view. On the other hand, the film has gained cult favorite status. Gilliam's career does not seem to have suffered substantially.
