Rogue One was good. I liked how the Rebel Alliance really took it to the Empire in that movie.
 
Pretty amazing...It was noticeable that both characters were CGI but maybe because I knew what to look for (for Tarkin at least). Felt that the Tarkin face was far better than Leia.

This all leads to a question I'll pose for you. Do you do the following for Ep IX:

1) CGI Leia, she was supposed to have an expanded role. Would her estate even allow it?
2) Somehow kill Leia off in EP VIII or early in IX.
3) Recast the Leia part...seems like blasphemy but I've heard this suggested. Could her part be so important that that's the only real solution to keep the integrity of the trilogy?

I agree that Tarkin was more lifelike than Leia.

3) Fisher is so completely synonomous with Leia that I think recasting would be hugely distracting in the movie and fans would make it a distracting issue outside of the movie. They could have easily recast Tarkin with a severe looking old brit and the movie wouldn't have suffered but Leia is another matter entirely.

1) I think one of the reasons that the CGI of Tarkin was better than Leia is that at this point the technology works better for older faces. What struck me was how pristine Leia's face was made to be. So pristine as to be unreal. Moving forward, CGI will be working with Leia's older face and will likely be more realistic.
