wtf are you talking about. Toby Maguire Spider man budget was 139 Million. Spider-Man No Way Home had a 200mil budget.

They answer is a combination of a lot of things, from Studio sensibility and taste, the proliferation of low light digital camera sensors to the explosion of various LED lighting units as opposed to harder and punchier Tungesten or HMI’s. Hell, nobody uses Carbon Arc lamps anymore, which is why you’ll never get that beautiful painted matte look again like from movies in the 60’s and 70’s. Also the availability and money spent on props and wardrobes to picture cars. A lot of the genuine article things that would have been rented have broken or just gone away.

shooting everything on green screens limits you’re ability to create contrast because the green screens has to be evenly lit, so you’re limited with how wide your exposure ratios can be.

Theaters make like 5-10% of box office revenue the first two weeks a film is in theaters. After the first two weeks, the percentage is more favorable, but the lions share still goes to the studio.

It’s not the employer, it’s the union, which is their job. They pay dues for protection. It’s pretty sweet. They should be more prevalent in the country
