Just wondering if someone was committed enough to make such a movie

I didn't say "make", I said "film". You don't film the actors until the script, sets and costumes are ready, and you can't edit the movie until after you've finished filming.

According to wikipedia, filming for Avengers Endgame started in August 2017 and finished in January 2018, with reshoots later that year. This was a big Marvel production with a ton of big-name actors doing complex action scenes, so I'm pretty sure this is on the high end of how much filming would need to be done.

I imagine the average person would take the phrase "film a movie" as synonymous with "make a movie", even if they are technically distinct. If you're being more specific with your usage than the typical person in your audience, that's on you; don't blame your audience for not understanding.
