Apparently it cost $274 million.

How did they manage to spend that much lol. The whole LOTR trilogy cost $300m and even adjusting for 25 years of inflation I don't think that price makes any sense.

Yep it's largely the increased amounts of cutting edge visual effects which require a LOT of man hours and the unnecessary amounts of pixel-fucking that producers and directors are allowed to get away with all the way up to (and sometimes after!) release.
