No more or less "wasteful" than anything else that happens in big budget movie production. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent to tell a story. If people like the story the movie investors make a profit. If not, they take a bath.
Of course someone else could tell the same story cheaper. Anyone with a smartphone can make a movie. The cheapest production cost generally isn't what people value in art and entertainment.
