First of all if I had to do that movie, 3/4 of the drama will be the development, waiting, and préparation to the event... it's there in the waiting moment that you can do very good scenes with interresting situations and caracters.
Also, remember THE BIRDS ? the best scenes was inside, in the house, I mean the quality of visual effects is much more easy to produce when it's small and related to the drama itself.
What do you think ? ( sorry for my limited english
