CGI is insanely expensive to do, even more expensive if you want it done well. You’ve only got the money you’ve got, so you have a trade off– you want CGI? Fine, but it ain’t gonna look too good.

You want good CGI? Sure, give us 12 months to do it, and I’ll have our 120 best people working on it but its gonna cost you many millions of dollars. Oh you only have a $1M budget? Yeah, umm, well we have this budget package for you…
