LOL, good one.However, she did change her face.
I didn't mind the re-casting here. Of course she's a secondary/tertiary character.

It's like Tarkin looked right from certain angles, yet on others he did not. If they had reduced his part by at least half, maybe it wouldn't have been as noticeable.
Leia not so much.
I like the actress even better!I love the actor

I went and saw the film again and have a little different perspective from the first time watching and my distractions.
Because I do video work and I tend to be very technical when I sit, watch and listen to something, it can take me away from enjoying a movie more because I'm so obsessively looking for things. I got to just enjoy it this time and found it to be far better than the first viewing.
The big things being Tarkin and Leia is what heightened my visual sense to look at every darn thing under a microscope and over analyze. Obviously Cushing has been gone for a long time and so naturally I am trying to pick apart everything. The odd thing this time was I just decided to watch it and not think about it. Well Tarkin actually looked better than I first observed and didn't take away from the film nearly as much. Leia was about the same. I don't know how to best explain it, but it was all round a lot better to watch this time.
Even Vader was better than I had scrutinized over, though still some of that neck stuff still stands out, but overall I have to just say it was better the 2nd time not sitting to look for things.
Sure Tarkin wasn't 100% perfect, but I have to say more than last time it looked great. I imagine by home release it will probably look even better not on a giant 40 foot screen where you can see everything in plain sight with nowhere to hide imperfections.
Rogue One is overall an extremely solid film and I hope they explore more anthology stories with new characters.
Seeing it a second time last night, I appreciated the music more than the first time. It's not bad, especially knowing that it was a four-week work. However, I still think it should have quoted the original 1977 score more than it did, especially aboard the DS. When the music changed once they got aboard Leia's ship - that was magic.
And, it needed an opening musical flourish with crawl. That beginning SUCKED. It's STAR WARS, for ******'s sake.
It did NOT need an opening crawl people .
Am I the only one that remembers this entire movie IS an opening crawl.
What would it say ???
This is the sanity check needed in this thread.
I almost want to read your post in George Carlin's voice.

I can't think of how they'd do the Death Star coming through hyperspace that didn't make it look diminutive or ridiculous. I didn't need to see that.Back from my second viewing and wondering why we didn't see a shot of the Death Star entering or exiting hyperspace. Ive always wanted to see that.
Well, to answer this and respond to the comment about the film's lackluster 3D effects (which I tend to agree about).......I can't think of how they'd do the Death Star coming through hyperspace that didn't make it look diminutive or ridiculous. I didn't need to see that.
