    The point is there are ways to do things without CGI. That was one of the most disappointing things about listening to the SF commentary - practically every single shot seemed to either have CGI or be done in the studio or both.

    It is rumored Ian McKellen suffered a nervous breakdown on the set of the Hobbit trilogy because of all the CGI stuff. Keep in mind in his case he didn't even face the other actors in many scenes !

    As for the rest, well, as long as tax credits will be given to CGI industry, and as long as the dollar stays a weak currency wrt to other parts of the world, use of real locations will be sparse I think alas.
