Photorealistic CGI

I purchased Cheetah 3D 5 months ago and attempted to make some Movie style CGI. I made my attempt at a "Prometheus" style trailer:

I used the fog tag when I found the results looked too cartoonish in daylight. I used the HDRI photos supplied with Cheetah with the fog tag. The motion blur and other things I added in After Effects.

Any ideas on how to get a more photorealistic results, particularly with the spaceship? Are the textures I'm using too limited? Is there an outside renderer that would work better? Is the project too ambitious or do I just not know enough. Let me know if you get the chance.
