Low Budget?
The difference in budget between this film and other animated features is significant.
Secret Life of Pets $75,000,000 (estimate)
versus
Finding Dory $200,000,000 (estimate)
Kung Fu Panda 3 $145,000,000 (estimate)
The BFG $140,000,000 (estimate)
What is the difference? Are all the studios reporting the same things? Are line items missing from SLOP? Are the voice actors less known? I haven't seen SLOP, but from what I saw of the ads, the animation looked cute. Is it less detailed? Is the lighting not quite to the quality of Dory or KFP3? I thought the hair on the dogs looked good, what of the other textures and shading?
