Difference of opinion I guess. You said it jarred you because the resemblance was uncanny? I thought she was fine precisely because it was only one shot, and there was no acting (which the CGI can’t emulate). She looked fine and not distracting. Tarkin on the other hand was in many scenes that required acting and besides, the computer was not as good at rendering Peter Cushing’s angular and gaunt facial features as it was Leia’s rounder and softer features. But maybe I just didn’t have time to pay close enough attention because it was just one scene.

Just my opinion.

Yeah. I can see where you’re coming from.

Perhaps it was that the Leia reveal was the last thing in the movie. For me it kind of undermined what would have otherwise been a very emotionally satisfying ending.
