Could be due to construction costs, permit costs, or a number of any other costs.

That and the architecture:

This is old news as I recall.. I will do some searching but some time ago this came up, and as was said then, most of the movie should take place in WW2 EUROPE. Of course it's cheaper to do a few American scenes on a set over there.

edit Here is one from the virtue forums.

I know there was one in the comics forums as well.
