Disney is slashing Marvel budgets, focusing on practical effects for shows like "Agatha All Along" and "Daredevil Born Again" to produce content at a "responsible cost". Recent Marvel movies like "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" and "The Marvels" have seen ballooning budgets, with some projects losing over $300 million due to underestimating production time and effort.

Marvel’s bloated, cartoonish CGI in recent movies like "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Avengers" franchises, especially in space dramas, has been criticized for not feeling grounded in reality.
