De-aging I’m fine with. Never looks great but used sparingly can be effective.
Digitally reviving the dead is just a deal breaker to me. I will give leeway to TROS because of their circumstances and their approach to repurpose real footage. Did it work? Lord no. It’s not quite as haunting as the average dead-eyed deepfake though. It will never cross the uncanny valley, and it will always be grotesque. As impressive as the tech is, I don’t enjoy seeing a dead man’s face digitally smeared over a puppet.
