Why wouldn't they make some smaller budget movies that have a higher chance of making a profit instead of putting all their eggs in one basket like this?

Actor budget, production budget and marketing budget usually are the biggest money sinks.

I heard usually 40% of the budget is spent on promotions & marketing alone.

That's different, CGI movies from anyone who isn't DreamWorks or Pixar are usually way cheaper

That's because Fox isn't confident the movie will sell.

The sequel should have a bigger budget.

John Wick had a $29 million budget, although from what I heard, it was actually considered a budget film.
