[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 8241382, member: 18"] Still way cheaper than shooting on location, especially if you go for more than one season! ???? I'm going to need you to show your working there. Dr Who is $1.5m/episode WandaVision is, say, $17m/episode. As far as I know, our pathetic human mathematics does not allow us to have a value is 10x more than 1.5 yet 10x less than 17. Can you explain this? 10x more than 1.5, by conventional math would be 15. 10x less than 17 would by conventional maths be 1.7. I'm not seeing how that works out... Do you mean per season? Because Dr Who is what, 10 episodes/season, so $15m, and WandaVision I already estimated at $152m total cost. 20 x10 = 150, 152 /10 = 15.2 which leaves you with the same issues. I mean, Doctor Who doesn't even cost 10x less than $10m/episode was what I was saying. It's like right there in my post. Honestly I could see them cheaping out and going as low a $5m thought it'll look terrible if they do, but if the script is good, I could also see the opposite, the showrunner is hot property which helps. Why did you "doubt" this though? It's very confusing. Witcher had a pretty solid budget, as shown - $10m. What did you think the budget was? Also Henry Cavill is a bigger name than Olson and Bettany put together. I'm mystified that you'd think Superman was cheaper than Scarlet Witch + Vision. It worked it's way up every season though - hit $10m at like S5 or S6 and $15m by the final season. When it started out, standards were a bit lower - but it raised the bar itself. [/QUOTE]
