And her smiling face looked pretty good too. It's just a couple dodgy frames in between that everyone likes to post online that were the most troublesome.


Then a couple of weeks from now you'll be saying it all looks good, just like people do with awful figure headsculpts. :lol
 
No. This is hot.

You're right, forgive me. I did not see it.
 
It would've been wrong at so many levels having SW era Leia from her iconic opening scene no less played by another actress.

Are you guys nuts.

Blasphemy!

I agree. Of course, in taking this standpoint, it's going to wreck my head if the Han Solo movie is actually good enough to be canon-worthy and yet....not Harrison Ford :gah:

Not a chance. :lol

I'll accept certain side characters being replaced by new actors (Mon Mothma, General Dodonna, Dr. Evazan) but not the Top Level icons.

What's funny is that Lucas actually did a pretty good job of having two different actors playing Wedge in the original movie in sequences that are just minutes apart:

Oh and I had posted a while back that I was shocked to learn that Bor Gullet was a practical effect. In reading up on it a bit more it turns out that they did fully create him as practical character but it was for a version of the script that just had him sitting in a corner when Bodhi was brought up next to him. They ended up deciding to give Bor Gullet a grander entrance by having him shuffle into the room so they replaced his full body with CGI. The close-ups of his head and eyes are the only shots where they used the practical puppet.
 
Ah-ha!!!

I always wondered about that since I was a wee lad. That first guy never looked like the guy in the helmet to me.

Yeah you can google "Fake Wedge" if you want to read up on it. The original guy (Colin Higgins) kept forgetting his lines when the cameras were rolling and George got pissed and replaced him then had Denis Lawson go back and dub dialogue over Higgins' lines ("that's impossible even for a computer") from the previous scene.

Years later Star Wars Insider interviewed Higgins who said that he thought it was just some stupid little movie that no one would see and that he didn't care that he got fired at the time. Oops.
 
SW actors looking different from film to film is nothing new. I'm just going to assume that Carrie Fisher suffered a motorcycle accident between RO and ANH that somehow improved her face.

I remember your post and it surprised the hell out of me because that "practical" effect looked too... squirmy and articulated to be 'real'. Sad to know it was CGI after all. But glad my suspicion was correct.
