You spend $100m on stop motion the same way a you spend $100m on any other film: paying people for their technical and artistic skills. Stop motion animation is a very time-intensive and precise art.
Or do you not understand why people would fund $100m into a stop motion film?
Probably because the financiers view stop-motion as an art worth funding. Art shouldn't need to come with financial gains to raise funding.
