Talk about early CGI!
That Zeppelin in LC looked fishy, too. When it's moving it may have been a CG, too. Compare it to the airship scenes in The Rocketeer. That movie was made a couple years later and the F/X were quite a bit better.

: Ok, true enough, it was only a small amount, and it was in Last Crusade (Donavan's destruction utilized some CGI tools among other things to make that scene come alive on the screen). It was one of the first uses of CGI.

: As for Indy 4, I honestly don't know if there will be lots of CGI just because Lucas is involved in it. Indy isn't a type of series where they use CGI Jar Jar's or CGI Imhotep's.

: If they do use CGI, it'll be for things like airplanes and perhaps a Wrath of God-type destruction sequence, and I don't think it'll be anything blatant or inappropriate, so keep your pants on. Let's actually wait until there is an ACTUAL Indy movie before jumping to conclusions like this.
