Weren't most actually shot in southern Spain? That's vast desert country, lots of different spectacular backgrounds that don't repeat in different scenes and even different movies.

Even Stanley Kubrick went there in the late 50s, to shoot epic battle sequences for Spartacus that would have been way beyond the film's budget if he had filmed in California.
