TIL that the film Independence Day (1996) still holds the record for the ‘most miniature model work to appear in one film’. The record is now expected to hold forever due to CGI advances.

Somewhere, someone reading this is hatching up a scheme to make a movie specifically to break this record.

LAIKA studios has done a lot of miniatures expanded with CGI, have they come anywhere close to the record?

The category must exclude stop motion or I don’t see how Independence Day qualifies

The scene where it appeared somehow ends getting cut from the movie in post-production.
