- Tarkin is so close to looking real, it almost throws the whole illusion off
It was amazing what they pulled off with CG Tarkin, but I was always focusing on the CGIness whenever Tarkin was on.
Same here for the first couple of times I saw Tarkin up on the screen - as a bit of a fan of the old Hammer Horror era films with Peter Cushing et al, it somewhat pulled me out of the film to look to see how they did it, how real (or not) he looked, how it worked best (dimly lit shots for me - and I think a really good reflection shot) etc.
Took me a few watches to just watch it for what it was - a pretty good attempt at it, and a near spot-on portrayal from Guy Henry.
I think I’ve said this before, but As a fellow HAMMER fan, I think you might agree;
I couldn’t and don’t believe this being Peter Cushing, but I did and do buy it being the character of Tarkin.
I agree mate, though in the spirit of Hammer - Tarkin Lives! (which would make for a great title to an intriguing cross-genre horror from them 😉)

anyway, came across this earlier - really like the fragments in the lower part of the picture, the overall style, colouring and emotion of the scene:-

What a dick.
Wait, so Pablo was the lizard baby in V: The Final Battle? 😉
Wow, good eye.
I found that scene exquisitely, euphorically horrifying as a kid.Is that the birth where there were twins - a baby lizard with a human tongue, and then a human baby with a lizard tongue?
Loved the V stuff - though sketchy in detail now years later - think they did something ‘meh’ with a starchild (with magic powers of course! 😃)?
Here’s the whole sequence if you want to relive the heartwarming scene. 😉
https://youtu.be/HvwfdLdEdVA
The “human” baby is the one they pulled the starchild Deus Ex Machina with. Poor little baby Gorn didn’t live long. 😦The lizard baby really got around back in the 80’s.
Cheers mate - the memory really can play tricks over the years…
Still at least Jane Badler is as attractive as I remember her playing Diana 😃 :-

Gareth Edwards Reveals ‘Rogue One’s Kyber Crystals Easter Egg in Jedha…
http://collider.com/rogue-one-kyber-crystals-jedha-easter-egg/#images
&
Jedha’s Kyber Crystals Came From an Asteroid in ‘Rogue One’, But Where Did the Asteroid Come From?..
This was one of the dumbest things in R1. If you go back and look at the original trilogy, there was no pseudo-scientific explanation for how anything worked. Lightsabers simply existed, a very small number of people had them and used them, and that’s all you needed to know.
As this was a spin-off anthology film, I might have found something like this interesting, if the filmmakers had really made a true science-fiction film, including extensive research and thorough presentation. But it’s really just a bunch of wannabes who don’t know anything, making something up out of their *** and thinking “yeah, that’ll work”.
It wasn’t Star Wars. It wasn’t science fiction. I don’t know what it was.
I’m not 100% sure what you are referring to in your post?
Do you mean that Jedha was full of materials (kyber crystals) that were being mined to power the weapon for the Death Star? (And that also, before the fall of the Republic, that these crystals were used to power the lightsabres of the Jedi?)
Or that this easter egg - likely many people watching Rogue One will never know about, or likely even think about, that asteroid crashing on planet full of these crystals originated elsewhere - which’ll (for the hard-core fans) opens of the possibility of a comic, book, cartoon adaptation as to that origin - or just something to talk about?
Or you are using a post about this easter egg to further continue your trend of posts that seemingly tries to pass off your opinion as fact - on how rubbish you found it? For eg, “But it’s really just a bunch of wannabes who don’t know anything, making something up out of their *** and thinking ‘yeah, that’ll work’”
