Great job, Davnes on the Boba Fett plot.  I think it might actually work.  We could find people to do impressions of Vader, Ackbar, and Fett, I'm sure someone could use it!

The hard part would be making Ackbar... Maybe using morphing transitions between existing shots could works to get a good lips synch. But I fear that it would end looking like those youtube fake talking cats videos...

Not to mention that all the shots used on this new scenes should be deleted from the rest of the movie, otherwise it would look odd. Like those cheap B movies using several times the same footage.

If you gave Ackbar's current face to a lip reader it would make no sense at all, so lip synch isn't too much of a problem and Ady has proved that a lot can be done there.

But if it is too difficult, Fett could give the plans to a human Rebel general who could be dropped into the briefing scene.

Then all we would need would an actor in a Fett suit, an actor in a Rebel general suit and a section of corridor.

Not an effortless undertaking but well within the realms of the possible.

 

 

I know Ackbar's "lips" are not really matching every words correctely. But I still think it would be quite difficult to just making it looks good enough. In fact that makes me want to give it a try and to "play my little Adyman" on this! Should be a good exercise for after effect!

"You'll have your reward, Fett", should be enough line for Ackbar. It only makes him open his mouth 6 times. 

Fett simply giving the plan to another rebel could be another easy option indeed!

I feel more and more that this sub plot will be in the final cut! (hope so).
