      Because good CGI is expensive and honestly it was all pretty good.

      Sometimes I think about that joke about Kubrick demanding they film the moon landing on location and wonder how much Hollywood is actually saving with CGI over practical effects…

      Though in this case I’m not sure what the practical version would be lol

    James Gunn’s answer very much sounds like the total costs around the film including marketing could be that high. Surely he would phrase that differently if the number was made up out of thin air.
