Having done audio sync on a number of film captures (not just SW), I always wrestle with this.  Many scenes are overdubbed after the fact ... that is commonly done, and not just in movies but in other productions. [I did some color commentary on a sporting event once, and they decided they didn't like the sound of our mics and so we had to go into the studio afterwards and overdub ourselves]

Point being, it is harder to sync audio and video captures if the voices have been overdubbed.  They just never seem to line up quite right.  And because of that, I often wonder if I should be trying to align the voice with the video, or if I should be trying to align the audio with where it fell in the original film (rightly or wrongly).
