Good example is the movie “Interstellar”

The scene where we can see the black hole took about 100 hours to render each _frame_ in the physics and wfx engine. Meaning that every single second of that scene took about 100 days to render the final copy.

A lot goes to the cgi and rendering but also changing the locations where they shoot the film. Not only the time it takes to travel to places but also to set up the equipment and putting it down after the shooting.
