Absurd amounts of cgi will do that.
Not that I think that CGI is cheap, but spending millions in computer graphics with today's powerful hardware sounds absurd. So, something else must be it.
Edit: Oh, please. CGI is cheaper than actual props. ET the movie would be way cheaper to remake today than 40 years ago.
It's still human intensive to actually make. Also, when nearly every scene has something that was cgi it really adds up fast.
Yeah, yeah, but it surely beats creating gigantic props, or miniatures, like back in the 70s and 80s in terms of costs.
I'm sure even with the advances we have seen that the costs have not dropped even slightly for a per hour like break down for rendering anything.
In fact this space is such a hot bed for rampent price gouging, hedgeing against the movies production, shell companys as standard opperation procedure to absorb and off set potential losses, the fine fucking print is almost illegible... Its surprising any money is "made" anywhere.
Which is exactly my point. It's not CG, the technology, that's expensive. It's the human factor surrounding it.
