Generally that would be true. But these are backgrounds/matte paintings. And those guys are generally allows to do whatever they need to get the background out. Paint it, render it in whatever, Photoshop and Nuke it until you get thumbs up. It is quite often one-man-job as most things cannot be reused (the mountain backdrop can't be in that many shots.. the monkey would) so there is much more flexibility in their tool of choice.
