Hard to believe First Flight cost anywhere near that amount. There were no big celebrity names attached to it either.
I'm not insane, and you'r the only person that whats to live in a lala land here, most people here do believe me.You don't seem to realize just how insane your assertion sounds. You are stating that TMS and Warner Bros. spent more than 20 times what any other studio would have (and what WB was spending on the other movies in this series) on a made-for-home-video animated movie. And did so without showing any signifucant improvement of production values. It just doesn't make any sense no matter what excuse you give for it.
And you wonder why nobody believes you.
Japan's effort =/= Cheaquels.You know, I always figured the movies were made under $5 million. I mean most DTV animated films are, so PC's accusations are damned incorrect.
Hate to be the bearer of bad news PC, but I'm more than certain the person who sent you that information was trolling you. And you fell directly into his/her/its trap.

Also TMS is not Gainax & Spumco, what they give out is the gods honest truth.
