After seeing a documentary on the 1st season of "The Walking Dead" I don't know what to believe anymore- it truly is amazing what can be done with computers.
They can build real things then replicate it digitally in full-motion video. The Japanese Zeroes in "Pearl Harbor"? Only 2-3 real ones exist and were filmed, the rest
were digital clones (scene where boy scout on hill sees them fly over).

There are still plenty of reasons to build things practically versus making them in the computer, but flexibility will always be on the digital side. When you build a set, you get so much for free that you have to work so hard to do in the computer. But building sets is really, really expensive and has plenty of limitations as well. That's why these days the smart way to do it is to make detailed, localized sets where the action is and expand it with digital environments. Advances in 3D camera tracking over the last 12 years have really made this accessible and the results are SO much more realistic than those static shots we used to see all the time in the past. Take for example the work of Pixomondo on "Game of Thrones" and see just how much of the set is real and how much is expanded digitally.
