I belive they also said in the documentary about the planet of the apes movies that they were made on B movie budgets even if they where succesful. Been awhile since i saw it tho.
Burton's was so inferior to the '68 version (which is a damned shame - Burtons a great film maker)
Saw the doco that came with the dvd boxset, and you're right, the budget for the first was fairly modest but was such a money maker the rest were subsquently churned out with ever decreasing budgets to increase the profit margins. By the time
Battle for Planet of the Apes was made the budget was pure "C" Class
